She didn't say lynching. She said public hanging. Back in the day they used to hang people for all sorts of things that had nothing to do with race.
People are racist for assuming she was being racist.

Mississippi stopped using hanging as the state-sanctioned execution back in 1940. CHS was born in 1959. The last extralegal hanging in Mississippi was 1968. This is pretty much her tar baby. She didn’t necessarily mean it in a racist way, but it carries the racist meaning that comes with its historical context.
