It was too long ago for me to remember much, except my well-intentioned scout master being highly racist while trying to keep us from being what he thought was racist.
Which I realize now I can’t recount the story because the words might get flagged. :) It had to do though with the show “Fat Albert”.
LOL
I recall a few such people myself. In my experience they were truly a minority.
I can’t think of much better for a kid than some time spent in the Rocky Mountains though.
