When I was 6-12 y/o, I used to go to a public pool that was mostly but not exclusively white. Civilized blacks were perfectly welcome, and they came, and I don’t think we, as kids, noticed or cared how many blacks were in the water.
However, large groups of urban thugs came on occasion, and when that happened, all the normal people would leave. Even without our parents there, we (including decent black kids) would hop out immediately when the thugs arrived. It’s not a race thing, no matter what the liberals claim, it’s culture.
It’s not about black or white; it’s about violence.
Most whites have no—repeat, no—bias against “black” people (which as a category includes Africans, Caribbeans, etc.); but they do fear violence the “African-American” culture.
” we (including decent black kids) would hop out immediately when the thugs arrived.”
Reminds me of the swimming pool salt/pepper and dish soap bit.
