How many lynching took place in the south between 1877 and 1950

Hello,

The correct answer is

Lynching is the practice of murder by a group by extrajudicial action. Lynchings in the United States rose in number after the American Civil War in the late 1800s, following the emancipation of slaves; they declined in the 1920s but have continued to take place into the 21st century. About 4,084 African-Americans were lynched between 1877 and 1950 in the South.

Hope this helps :)
