^^^I stole this from D-Locc's signiture, maybe it will help you understand. This is why it hurts when white people say racist shit, it aint just your words, its the actions that have been taken behind those words for so many years.
Who was William Brown?
"Fifteen thousand people or more took to the streets and dragged William Brown from the courthouse, setting fire to the building and lynching their own mayor in order to do so. In their savagery, it was not enough to kill William Brown--his body was mutilated, shot repeatedly, burned, and dragged through town. These facts help distinguish Brown’s death from those of lynched horse thieves and con men before him. These facts help distinguish Brown’s death as being racially motivated. His murderers were not offended by his crime, they were offended by his blackness, and the accusation of a crime gave them the excuse to tear his hated skin right from his body. The mob behaved symbolically, hanging and firing bullets into a man already dead and then ceremoniously burning the body, finally parading it around town. Their violence was not limited to Brown, but was directed at any black they found."
