At least not as bad as the lynchings and ghettoizing the northrons did. The difference, we got over it.

So southern lynchings of blacks were somehow better than northern lynchings? Maybe it's because they had more practice. Of 3446 lynchings of blacks between 1882 and 1968 catalogued by the Tuskegee Institute, 3029 took place in the eleven states that made up the confederacy.

And are you seriously going to argue that blacks in southern cities didn't live in ghettos?
