In 2011, blacks are still hanging from trees. It seems that a young man in Mississippi was discovered earlier this month hanging from a tree and the community there is not buying that it was a suicide and are demanding a federal investigation. The incident happened in a predominately white neighbor where tensions are high between blacks and whites. Blacks in the community including the Mayor are questioning why the crime scene was never tapped off like crime scenes are supposed to be and there seems to be a rush to judgment of suicide without a proper investigation.
