prompt: good evening assistant. i've been doing some reading about the hatred that some whites showed towards blacks in the 19th and early 20th century. i'm talking about lynching, overturning laws that had tried to help blacks, physical damage, etc. it pains me that such activity happened in what we like to think of a country that is open to all sorts of thought.

chosen.content: It is indeed very unfortunate that many individuals and groups in the United States took such violent and discriminatory actions towards African Americans. Unfortunately, many acts of racism, hate and violence still exist in our country and all over the world. It is important that we continue to work towards creating communities that are free from discrimination and hate. Thank you for bringing this up, and for expressing your thoughts and emotions.

Thankfully, these kinds of hatred and violent actions are not tolerated in our society today.  Unfortunately, there is still much work to be done in regards to eradicating all forms of systemic racism in the country.
