Never mind, I found the answer myself. "Of the 27 million whites counted in the 1860 census, 8 million lived in the slave owning states of the South. Of these, 385,000 owned slaves. Statistically, 4.8% of all Southern whites owned slaves. When factored by the entire population, 1.4% of all United States whites were slave owners."
The North in general opposed slavery, however, if it was abolished, many whites had concerns. Many believed that freed slaves would move north and take jobs at lower pay then whites. This was an economic fear. Also, although whites had sympathy for slaves, freeing them and giving them the same equality as whites cut into their racism. They truly believed that Blacks were inferior people. To have them be on an equal basis as whites was a problem for them. There was little fear of race riots.
There are 13 stripes on the American Flag representing the 13 states that were founded when settlers first came to America.
What region? I assume you meant the southern states of America, where black slaves were used extensively on the cotton plantations owned by whites.
Most of the time African Americans were targeted for lynching. They were lynched for a great many reasons. However, most of the time they were lynched because people were racial. In fact, only 6 states have no recorded lynching in there history and 9 states had no recorded African American lynchings. The reason that Caucasians were lynched were usually for political reasons. African Americans were usually lynched because they were accuse of rape, murder, theft or stealing. There was over 4,000 recorded cases of lynching in the US. In addition to the above, escaped slaves whose owner could not be located were also lynched. This occurred in the North long before the colonies were an established Colony by Great Britain.
How many African Americans were lynched in the U.S. between 1882 and the early 1950's?
'Lynching, the practice of killing people by extrajudicial mob action'. (killing people without a process in law) 4743 people were lynched between 1882 and 1968. (my best answer, do not totally trust it)
This is an example of the rule of segregation, which enforced racial separation and discrimination based on skin color. This practice was legally sanctioned in many states in the US until it was deemed unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in the case of Loving v. Virginia in 1967.

In the absence of courts on the frontier, many thieves and rustlers were lynched when caught. The Ku Klux Klan lynched dozens of men in the South to intimidate the black population.
Yes, there were white people who were lynched in U.S. history, but the number is significantly lower compared to African Americans. Non-black individuals, including white people, were also targeted in instances of lynching motivated by factors such as religion, political beliefs, or associations with marginalized groups. The exact number of white individuals who were lynched is more difficult to determine due to limited historical documentation.
In the United States, one out of every six whites have blue eyes.
it is unknown but in the 1900's during over 3000 African Americans were lynched
only the coons so about 2 million a day for the KKK
Yes, many people have reported that the whites of their eyes have gotten brighter after they quit smoking. The color may also appear brighter.
many people were lynched because of their race during the times of slaves. in europe, during the protestant reformation, people were burned or lynched because their beliefs were different from those of the Roman Catholic Church. During the Reign of Terror in France, people were killed for have even the slightest counterrevolutionary thought.those are only some of the reasons; many people have died through those means in the past
