It is estimated that thousands of African Americans were lynched in the United States between 1882 and 1968, although exact numbers vary due to underreporting and lack of documentation. Lynching was a violent and racist form of extrajudicial punishment used to terrorize African American communities.
African Americans were the primary targets for lynching in the southern United States, especially during the period of racial segregation and Jim Crow laws. Other targets included individuals who challenged white supremacy, such as civil rights activists, or those who were seen as threatening the social order in some way.

many people were lynched because of their race during the times of slaves. in europe, during the protestant reformation, people were burned or lynched because their beliefs were different from those of the Roman Catholic Church. During the Reign of Terror in France, people were killed for have even the slightest counterrevolutionary thought.those are only some of the reasons; many people have died through those means in the past
because of fear ....the europeans raped lynched and castrated slaves to put fear in the others to make sure slaves see the consequences so that they didn't run or try to harm the slave master.
