Alan Brennert Quote

I did not know this word, lynching, but when I asked Jade Moon about it she explained, As I understand, it refers to a custom in the American South, where white men may punish the darker peoples with impunity by hanging them from trees. I was speechless. How could such barbarity exist in a land of freedom like America? What country was this, in which I had been living all these years?
