24. The winner is New York City!

Edited on Fri Dec-10-04 02:56 PM by bvar22

New York City hold the record for the Most Black Men lynched in a Single Day.
The total number varies from about 35 to over 200 (maybe more),
but no other American city comes close to this outburst of bigotry and hatred.

Additionally, New Yorkers burned to the ground a Black Church and a Black Orphanage.

See New York City Draft Riots, 1863.

On Edit: The New York Lynch Mobs were blaming the Black People for causing the Civil War.
