Abstract
This thesis discusses the problem of lynching in the United States from historical, legal, psychological, and sociological aspects.
The first endeavor has been to obtain all the facts possible and my final endeavor has been to point out the conclusions clearly warranted by such facts.
The material for this study was found 1n a wide range of sources, the most important of which were Raper's The Tragedy of Lynching, Chadburn's Lynching and the Law, Cutler's Lynch Law and the material by the Southern Commission on Interracial Cooperation and the Southern Commission on the Study of Lynching.
