Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) she said lynching was caused by contempt for law by race. Color-line murder is how she defines it.

2. She calls it an embarrassment because lynching is a form of terrorism. And had to work in a group to fight against anti-lynching.

3.The Mobs tied her ankles and hung her upside down from a tree. They are lawless and the "street gang". The founders designed a government that would resist the mob rule. Leaving wells clueless.

4.She offered the solution to police violence.
