Read the excerpt below from Only Yesterday, An Informal History of the 1920's, Chapter 3 "The Big Red Scare" section
6 and answer the question.
If a white girl reported that a colored man had made improper advances to her-even if the charge were
unsupported and based on nothing more than a neurotic imagination a white-sheeted band might spirit the
Negro off to the woods and teach him a lesson" with tar and feathers or with the whip. If a white man stood
up for a Negro in a race quarrel, he might be kidnapped and beaten up. If a colored woman refused to sell
her land at an arbitrary price which she considered too low, and a Klansman wanted the land, she might
receive the K. K. K. ultimatum-sell or be thrown out. Klan members would boycott Jewish merchants, refuse to
hire Catholic boys, refuse to rent their houses to Catholics.
What is the best definition you can infer for the word "arbitrary" from the excerpt above?
having ultimate power
decided by a judge
not absolute
subject to individual will or judgment
(The answer is not absolute I got it wrong for any future references but if anyone could help with this it’s appreciated)
