The Roaring Twenties
What do you think of the justice that was administered in the 20's? Do you think that the black community was intimidated by the lynchings? What was the primary location of the lynchings? Compare and contrast what was happening in the arts with what was happening in the world of justice.

The justice wasn't good for the black people. Yes the black community was probably very afraid of the lynchings. The primary location was in the south. The world of art was doing fine and the world of justice needed to find equallity for all.
The black people didn't have justice brought to them. I think the black people were intimidated by the lynchings. The south of the U.S. is were the lynchings of the black people happened. The world of arts was progressing a lot, but justice was failing for the black people.

Justice was not very good for colored people in the 20's. I think the black community was intimidated by the lynchings. They were located in the south. The arts were evolving just fine, what with the new excitement and all. However, the world of justice was doing pretty bad in the whole equality idea.

Justice was not shown or given to colored people in the 1920's. Yes, most of the black community was intimitated by the lynchings, though some were fearless of them. The south was the primary location for lynchings. The world of Art was progressing with the newly shown excitement from people, but justice was not prevailing and wasn't shown to those who needed to be shown justice.
There wasn't justice administered in the 1920s. I do believe the black community was intimitated. The primary location of the lynchings was in the South. Within the world of arts, the blacks were able to perform but were treated without respect.

In the 20's justice was not shown towards the colored race due to racism and othe differences. I think that they were intimidated and scared of the lynchings. The main location was in the south. The life of art seemed to grow and progress, while justice seemed to kind of start to fall apart even more. Everyone is equal, and at that time justice did not live up to that.

The justice wasn't shown towards colored people, due to racism in the 20's. Yes, most of the black community was intimidated by the lynchings, but not all. The primary location of the lynchings was in the south. The arts progressed while the world of justice fell apart because the people that needed to be shown justice, were not.

Justice in the 20's was administered at only a certain type of people. The black community was intimidated because the klu kuk klan. The main locations were in the south. In places like hollywood blacks were getting well known for music and radio, while in the south they were being abused and slotered.
uhh the justice in the 20's was not so good because mostly the blacks had troubles beacuse the were threatned by the kkk or (klu klux klan). the primary locations of the kkk was mostly down SOUTH beacuse thats here most of the blacks live. so they went down there to do the horrible thing that they did.well...... the arts were doing wayyy better than the justice in the EqUaLiTy category.

The justice wasn't shown towards colored people because of racism. I think some were afraid but others were not one bit afraid.Some black people stood up for them selves while others allowed people to walk all over them like they were useless. Yes, I think the blacks were intimidated by the lynchings. The lynchings were located in the South of the U.S. The arts had no problems while the world of justice, on the other hand, were trying to find freedom for everyone even of different races.

I believe that the justice that was administered in the 20's was very poor. I don't think that the government was as organized and sophisticated as it is now.I think that most of the black people were very intimidated, I would be one of those people. the location of the lynchings were mostly in the south. I feel that the arts community was doing just fine, evolving greatly. the happenings around the world though was doing just the opposite, it was horrible, people were getting murdered and no one seemed to care that much.

The justice for black people obviously was the worst of the 20's. What happened was horrible and it wasn't fair, and i can't belie people did this. They were probably very afraid of the lynchings, of course. I think that the primary location for the lynchings was in the south. The world of art was increasing everywhere and the world of justice was getting worse every year.

The justice was bad toward african americans. Some were intimidated but some were not scared and did not care. Mostly the southern was the location of lynches but some were other places also. Art was staying the same and also progressing but the world of justice was bad for african americans.

The justice for the blacks in the 20's was very unfair. It was cruel, inhumane punishment. Yes, I beleive that the blacks were intiminated by the lynchings at first, but I think some of them overcame their fear after so long. The primary location for the lynchings was in the south, where the KKK was strong. The arts in the 20's were booming and people were very excited about it, but justice and equality for all was suffering.
justice for blacks?? noo way they didnt have much of that at all in the 20's. the blacks did get intimidated alot by the lynchings.they were located in the south. the blacks did get to perform for arts and things but they were not treated fairly at all or with kindness and respect. the 20's was very racism thank god the world has changed alot since then!

Ku Klux Klan? What racists! They gave the colored population no justice at all. Of course the colored community was intimidated by the lynchings. If I saw people of my race hanging from trees with birds eating out their eyes, I’d be intimidated, too. In my mind, that is very gross but apparently the Ku Klux Klan didn’t have the same perception as I do. The primary location of the executions was in the south, I believe. Hmm, doesn’t that remind you of another issue our country struggled through? In the 20’s a revolution was occurring in the arts, such as the jazz and flapper movements. However, justice was scarce, especially towards the colored population. Similarly, both were rapidly changing.

The justice in the 20's was very bad. They were racist and it was just wrong what they did. They had no respect for colored people! They were attacked by mobs and burned. Yes, I think they might have been a little intimidated by the lynchings. I would be too though. The location of the lynchings was mainly in the south. The arts were progressing as the justice was getting really bad. A lot of people in the music arts were being more recognized for their work. Record sales were increasing as well as the literature being written. People were discriminating againist colored people more and more!

the justice wasnt good for black people in the 20's because of the kkk. I think the black community were very scared of the lynchings. The primary location of the lynchings was in the south. The arts were doing good in the world and on the other hand the world of justice needed to get equallity for all people.

Well, for the African Americans it was not fair what’s so ever nobody deserves to be treated with so much disrespect! No color is superior we are all equal! If I was in the area of the lynching I would be really scared! Just imagining not feeling safe anywhere you go even in your own home and its all just okay. The area of the lynching was in U.S.A., down south. As art might have been progressing positively the Klu Klux Klan was evolving. For the African Americans it was going horribly and their was no justice for them.

I think many new trends and products came out in the 1920's. The justice in the 1920's had terrible justice and laws on how to treat poeple every man should be created equal. The kkk and things like that are horrible and ruin the reputation of our society.Im sure that the black community were intimidated because they had no rights. They were attacked everywhere they went and they never felt safe. Now in the world we have more fair laws. We are nicer to races of people but the world is still very cruel. Now we have a black president are society is much better than it was before.

there was racim and hate. there was the kkk. the primary location was in the south.The world of arts was progressing justice was failing for the black people.
The justice wasn't good for the black people back then. The problem was down south they were not cracking down on the KKK. Also they were getting away with killing the black people. I do think the blacks were intimidated by lynchings. The twentys though were good by launching industries. The arts were great to back then. The blacks could be involed in arts also but were scared in some ways because of lynchings.
Most of the justice was not shown towards the african americans. The african americans might of been scared from the lynchings because they might be next. Usually down south the lynching would occur because that is where the KKK was. The African americans did not have the rights that the white people had. Today black people usually could not go outside without them being taken. That probaly would not happen today. The KKK still exists but I dont think its as bad as it was back then. Much has changed scince back then.
In the 1920's there was little justice for the blacks. In the south blacks were killed for allmost nothing. They were killed randomly just because of the color of there skin.The lynchings mostly happend in the south. In the 1920's the arts were flourshing. however the blacks and immigrants were served no justice. While there culture was suppresed.
There was little justice during the 1920's towards blacks and other immigrants. I think a part of the black community was intimidated by them but i think the others were angry. The south was the primary location for the lynchings. The arts were starting to thrive while justice was being demolished.

The justice wasn't very equal. There was a lot of rascism. I think the lynchings where very scary to the black community. The lynchings where very cruel to the black race. They where treated very poorly. The primary location was in the south of the Untied States. The blacks where not treated equally to the white. The whites where more important than the blacks to the lynchings.

The justice was unfair for the blacks. The black community was imtimidated by the lynchings. Most of the racial action was in the south. I believe everyone but the blacks were treated fair, and thats just unjustice.

The justice was so totally un-fair to the blacks. They treated them different from the whites because the whites didn't think that they were good enough to be seen with them thats why they seperated them in schools and on transportation. I do think that the black community was intimidated by the lynchings. The primary location was in the south. The world of art was doing fine and the world of justice needed to find equallity for all. Now days everything has made a dramastic change about everything. There is still alot of racials around here though and not just of the blacks either. Theres mexicans,chinese,indian, and other types of race.
I think that justice was very terrible for black people. Actually some people were intimidated by the lynchings and some were not. There were black people that didn't care what happened to them as long as they got their justice and there were some who were very scared to fight and wanted to stay safe and not be hurt a in any way. The lynchings primary location was in the south. The arts was great but in the world of justice, it was messed up and needed to be equal for all people of any color.
There was really no justice for the black race. Yes, I think they were very intimidated. The primary location was in the south of the U.S. The arts were greatly progressing, however there was no justice for the black race.

What justice? There was no justice in what was done. Myself, being half black, was struck at home by that video. I think they were intimidated, yes. I would be. I mean, just think about it. If you and your race were counting down towards death, and there was nothing you could do about it, wouldn't YOU be scared? The primary location of the lynchings was the south of our nation. Apparently, what with this AND slavery, the south didn't quite like blacks that much.
I think the justice was very poor in the 1920’s. Even though some Ku Klux Klan members were tried many were not. I think the black community was very frightened by the lynching. This proved to them that the Ku Klux Klan would kill and this meant they would do it to more people if they thought it was needed to help their cause or their message was not understood. The lynching took place usually on a tree. The arts were becoming more popular and more available for everyone. The ideas in art were becoming more outgoing and innovative. Justice on the other hand was becoming more to deal with race.

I do not believe there was any just for African-Americans in the twenties. They were given a different set of rules than white people. It is not fair in any way. I think that some African-Americans were intimidated by the lynchings. I can't say that all of them were intimidated by them, but I do think most of them were. The lynchings occurred mainly in the south where slavery had been supported so it's not much of a surprise to me that they were happening. I do find it surprising that they have been happening so recently though. The arts were changing drastically and African-American musicians were finally getting a break and I think that helped them gain some just in it all.
Justic was not very good in the twenties for the blacks, because they had to deal with the kkk or (klu klux klan). They alsohad to deal with getting full rights in america. No, I do not think they was intimidated by the lynchings because after Martin L. King gave his speach I think they gained confidence in themselves. The arts are progressing through these years while the justice is going bad. This was a very sad video to watch.

I think it was terrible the way people where treated for there skin color. There is no just at all. The part that really makes me mad is the fact it took so long to stop it. The black community was trembling I would hate to be scared just to leave my house. I would never want to leave at all. The klu Klux Klan is a bunch of wussy rednecks with nothing better to do than run around with there heads up there..

The justice wasnt good for African Americans. Yes, i think thaat the black community was very intimidated by the lynchings. The lynchings were primary located in the south. In the arts the blacks were able to perform, but wre treated with no respect. it was ver unfair to the blacks, who are just the same as whites.
It was not good for the blacks. Yes the black people where intimidated by the lynchings. The primary location was the south.The arts where getting better but the world was getting torn down.
The justice system was probably never not fair to everyone. Black people must have been very scared of people like the Klu Klux Klan. Lynchings were mostly done on crosses or telephone poles. It also seem like they are slaves or racism of their color with no right to defend one another. Because people took pictures, they must have been the people who id it.
The stars in the twenties were different. Charley Chaplain was famous. He never said anything. When movies began, they let people see things that they did not know about like lynching. When people saw how bad they were, they started to want it to stop this unneeded violence and killing.

The 20s were definitely not a good time to be living in. I would be scared if I was alive back then. I would even be terrified to walk out my front door probably.There was no justice in the 20s. Just segregation and prejudice and negative things like that. Yes I bet that they were extremely terrified of the lynichings. What they did to them was extremely unfair and cruel and vicious. The primary location of the lynchings was in the Southern areas of the country. Probably because that is where slaves were and they didn't believe in equality of all people. The world of art was good with little to no mentioned problems or issues. The world of justice was not good at alll and there was too many racists and haters and mean people.

Justice in the 20's wasnt very good for colored people. I bet they were probably scared not knowing what was going to happen. The primary locatioon was in the south like new orleans. In the world of the arts it is going into the technology age and getting more advanced. In the world of justice people are still judging colored people and i don't think thats right but there is always going to be people like that.

There was little justice during the 1920's towards blacks and other immigrants. The only justice that was given was toward the white people.The black community was intimidated for many reasons. Mostly because of the kkk or (klu klux klan). The primary location of the lynchings was in the South. The arts were starting to thrive while justice was being demolished. In conclusion the twenties were a hard time for justices of all colors.
In the 1920's there was no equality or justice among races. Much of the black community was afraid of the lynchings, however some stood up for themselves despite their fears. The main location of these lynchings was in the south. In the world of arts, African American's were rising in popularity, but still given no respect. However, in the world of justice, all African Americans were treated unfairly.

I honestly don’t think that the justice wasn't good for the black people at all. Actually yes, I think that most of the blacks were intimidated and frightened by the lynching’s. The location was in the south. In the arts everything was doing great. And everything really did seem to go together and for the world of justice things were not doing that great and it seemed like everything was just falling apart. Everyone was getting hurt, murdered, and so much more and everyone there didn’t seem to mind that much. They didn’t even care that everyone was getting hurt.\

The justice was horable for the black men and women of the world. The Increasing population of the KKK in south of the USA. Lynchings where occoring in many parts of the world. Lynching occored through the 1920s into the
1930s and was found to of happened in the 1980s. The Black and White musicians where makeing it big and becoming very famous. The other blacks where being treated poorly and was being killed for there skin color which I think is very wrong and makes white people look bad. That time was a teriable time for all blacks and still to this day there are some blacks and whites being miss treated becoause of the color of there skin.
I think the justice was completely unfair to African-Americans. They were probably scared out of their skins by the lynchings, just minding their wn buisiness and seeing some dude hanging from a tree. The primary location of the lynchings was in the south. The art started to grow while justice started to collapse in on itself.
I think the justice in the 20’s was not so hot. The blacks still did not have their rights. I think some blacks were intimidated by the lynchings. The locations of the lynchings were in the south. In the arts some blacks didn’t have the rights to do things whites could have done.

The justice in the twenties was...well, unjust. It was horrid and needed to be changed. Yes, most black people were probably intimidated by the lynchings. I mean, who wouldn't be? Lynchings primarily took place in the south of the united states. In the arts, much was progressing, while the exact oposite was taking place in the world of justice.
the justice wasnt very good for the african american race. yes, they were probley terrified by the lynchings. the primary location was near the south. the world of art was doing ok, but the justice needed to find equality toward all races.
There was no justice for the African Americans (seems like a nicer word to me) in the 20’s. I would have to say that the African American community was probably very afraid! I mean who wouldn't be afraid? If you were put in their situation wouldn't you be afraid too? The primary location of the lynchings were mainly in the southern states. This would include states that were beneath West Virginia and started in Virginia itself. The world of arts in the 20's was growing and improving rapidly. As for the world of justice it severely still needed to improve.
i dont think the justice in the 20's was very good. I think they where intimidated and scared of the lynchings. the main spot or area of the lynchings was in the south. the area of art was increasing while the area of justce was decreasing.
Justice was not very good for colored people in the 20's. Yes, most of the black community was intimitated by the lynchings, though some were fearless of them. The south was the primary location for lynchings. The world of Art was progressing with the newly shown excitement from people, but justice was not prevailing and wasn't shown to those who needed to be shown justice.
I think many new trends and products came out in the 1920's. The justice in the 1920's had terrible justice and laws on how to treat poeple every man should be created equal. The kkk and things like that are horrible and ruin the reputation of our society.Im sure that the black community were intimidated because they had no rights. They were attacked everywhere they went and they never felt safe. Now in the world we have more fair laws. We are nicer to races of people but the world is still very cruel. Now we have a black president are society is much better than it was beforee.
I do not think it was right at all. Black people were mistreated and I think that it has horrible. I think some of the black community had to be. I mean, I would be if I were them. They might not want to show fear. The lynching was everywhere, I’m pretty sure it was? I think that the way the black community was treated is Not Right! Tell me, who could really do that to another person? Another thing is it was over something really stupid! I think now there isn’t much segregation, which I think is great (: there may be some but, not near as much.

it wasnt good for african americans at all. there was alot of segregation and seperation. there was also a lot of racism. im sure they were very bothered by them and tried not to be lynched. definately down south. the arts were booming while the world of justice was sad. the arts had people buying more, being more fahsionable, and dancing. jazz was also big. the justice was terrible. there were lynchings and the kkk. people do not deserve treatment like that, no matter wat they look like.
mattiekoch(:
I don't think there was any justice to the black community. I think they probably very intimidated by the lynchings.I also think that they where always located in the south. I don't the arts were much affected by the injustice around the black community.
The justice that was administered in the 1920's shouldn't be called justice. It was completely wrong. I beleive the black community was very intimidated by the lynchings. Wouldn't you be scared if people of you race were being lynched unjustly? The primary location of the lynching was in the south. There was much less segregration and racism in the north at the time and I doubt any lyching at all took place there. The world of the arts was booming in every aspect, however the world of justice was currupted by racism.
