An anonymous handbill decrying lynching in the United States and advertising the differences in anti-lynching policy between the Republican and Democratic parties. The header states that "Everyone agrees that lynching is the chief crime against the colored man in the United States", and the remainder illustrates the great disagreement over just what to do about it. The left column quotes the Republican platform and its then-nominees Warren G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge, who would shortly be elected to office, on their support for federal anti-lynching legislation. The right column points out that the Democratic platform and its nominees, James M. Cox and Franklin D. Roosevelt, all "said: NOTHING!" on this issue. Lynching would not be made a federal hate crime until 2022, nearly 100 years later. As of writing, we find no other copies of this handbill in OCLC. Toning, several small stains, small fold at top left corner; near fine.
