Lynching was largely ignored during 1900-1920 due to a combination of systemic racism, societal indifference, and the normalization of violence against African Americans. Many white Americans viewed lynching as a means of maintaining social order and racial superiority, leading to widespread complicity or silence. Additionally, law enforcement and local governments often failed to intervene, reflecting a broader societal acceptance of such acts, while media coverage frequently downplayed the violence or sensationalized it in ways that justified the actions of lynch mobs. This environment of racial terror and impunity persisted, allowing lynching to flourish unchecked during this period.
