You don’t understand bro we gotta protect our white women bro they’re after our white women bro

If you say something like ‘ If you’re gonna hang someone hang me” you can’t be surprised when they try to hang you

About 11 o’clock, when the frenzy was at its height, [Mayor Edward Smith](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Parsons_Smith) came out of the east door of the courthouse into Seventeenth Street. He had been in the burning building for hours. As he emerged from the doorway, a shot rang out.^([)[*^(citation needed)*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)^(])

“He shot me. Mayor Smith shot me,” a young man in the uniform of a United States soldier yelled. The crowd surged toward the mayor. He fought them. One man hit the mayor on the head with a [baseball bat](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseball_bat). Another slipped the [noose](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noose) of a rope around his neck. The crowd started to drag him away.^([)[*^(citation needed)*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)^(])

“If you must hang somebody, then let it be me,” the mayor said.^([)[*^(citation needed)*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)^(])

The mob dragged the mayor into Harney Street. A woman reached out and tore the noose from his neck. Men in the mob replaced it. Civilians wrestled the mayor from his captors and placed him in a police automobile. The throng overturned the car and grabbed him again. Once more, the rope encircled the mayor’s neck. He was carried to Sixteenth and Harney Streets. There he was hanged from the metal arm of a [traffic signal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_signal) tower.^([)[*^(citation needed)*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)^(])

Smith was suspended in the air when State Agent Ben Danbaum drove a high-powered automobile into the throng right to the base of the signal tower. In the car with Danbaum were City Detectives Al Anderson, Charles Van Deusen and Lloyd Toland. They grasped the mayor and Russell Norgard untied the noose. The detectives brought the mayor to [Ford Hospital](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Hospital_(Nebraska)). There he lingered between life and death for several days, finally recovering. “They shall not get him. [Mob rule](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ochlocracy) will not prevail in Omaha,” the mayor kept muttering during his delirium

This is a reminder that feminism and white supremacy has always been closely linked together even to this day.

Hey, where the white women at?

Seriously, this is why Jack Johnson was such a good ragebaiter: he beat up the white man and seduced the white woman.

Jesus Christ. I grew up in that city and never once heard this story.

This quote from the Wikipedia page is still pretty relevant today

“What happened in Wilmington became an affirmation of white supremacy not just in that one city, but in the South and in the nation as a whole”, as it affirmed that invoking “whiteness” eclipsed the legal citizenship, individual rights, and equal protection under the law that black Americans were guaranteed under the Fourteenth Amendment

white people when gyros are at the function

Hahahahhaha racism against whites is awesome!!!!

Don’t forget about the Lynching Postcards
