Actually, lynchings were common through the 1950s, so your attempt to dismiss them is not factual.

Total 1,297 3,445 4,742
Looking at the above table, I count the total blacks lynched in the entire US from 1950 thru 1968 as being 9.

How does that compare with black-on-black homicides in the same time period? How does that compare with black on white homicides in that same period?
