Racial segregation in the USA in the 20th century.

Somehow historically it turned out that Adolf Hitler's actions overshadowed basically all the evil in the world in the 20th century. For everyone, it turned out to be convenient to blame all the world's sins on Hitler. Meanwhile, a lot of things were happening in Hitler's shadow. First of all - it was possible to hide for many years in this shadow the genocides carried out by the Soviets - the Great Famine in Ukraine, the gulags in the USSR with the number of victims estimated at up to 60 million, Katyn, population displacements. Secondly - it was also possible to hide in this shadow tens of millions of victims of the introduction of communism in China. And finally, with much fewer victims, but ideologically not so far from Nazism - racial discrimination in the USA. And this racial discrimination officially lasted until July 3, 1964 in the USA (unofficially it lasted much longer, however, with diminishing force). Nazism is accused of racism, but to be precise, it was national German chauvinism specifically aimed at the nationality of one country. Racial discrimination in the USA had the character of pure racism. - until 1865 (end of the Civil War) - 1865-1964 - period of official racial discrimination - 1964-2008 - period of unofficial discrimination until the election of Obama as President of the United States and in principle, it was only in 2008 that racial segregation ended mentally in the USA. In the Lynching Report (eji.org), over 4,400 lynchings of African Americans in the USA between 1877 and 1950 have been documented.
