“There is a dark past in America and in the Deep South regarding the burning of African-American churches,” Derrick Simmons said.”

There is? Lived in the “Deep South” for 59 years, first I heard of it.

I’m 64. Lived in Mississippi until I was 14, then Alabama, then Florida. Was stationed in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina.

Never heard of a single black church burning.

We had two white churches burn in Mississippi when I was a kid, but they were normal causes, electrical was one and the other was a freak accident from a nearby rail car fire...............

Nah, the KKK just blew them up(See "Bombingham")

Must not been an avid newspaper reader, because our local paper had stories about it and I was just a kid and read it.
