At the micro level, the racists in the south are now the ones with dark skin. Just like everywhere else in this country.
” racists in the south are now the ones with dark skin”
I may be wrong, but I’m betting any study of racism neglects to include anti-white racism.
That has been my experience.
“At the micro level, the racists in the south are now the ones with dark skin. Just like everywhere else in this country. “
How true, north and south and his been egged on by their racial leader in the white hut.
One of my best friends is a black man from North Carolina. Born and raised down south, then he went in the Navy where he retired after 30 years. He told me the most racist places in the country were up north. He said at least in the South you know where you stand with another man, if he doesn’t like you he will tell you to your face. He said he can deal with that. He said up north people talk behind your back and stab you in the back and they just don’t like black people. Then he looked at me and said he had proof. He goes on to say that Atlanta, Birmingham, and a lot of the big Southern cities were once mostly white because the black man left and went up north to find work. He said gradually they got tired of not being able to find work and got tired of being put down by yankees that they started moving back to their southern homes, knowing damn well that that’s where they belonged, where most people got along with each other and southerners were not phonies like yankees and didn’t stab you in the back. Lem was my friend’s name. He’s a retired Navy Master Chief now living in his hometown of Elizabeth City, NC. He’s a smart man, and by the way the listens to nothing but country music, Hank Williams being his favorite singer and he hates rap.
