This is addressed to everyone who is Southern born and raised-Do you think that there is a "black South" and a "white South"?

No, I don't.

Is there a Black California and a White California.

Is Watts a community in LA?

Can you explain why the policemen that beat Rodney King
had to have their trial in Simi Valley?

Did racial problems occur in every major city in the US?
Do incidences still happen to this day in places other than
the South?

If you're wondering if your question annoyed me, it did!
It also caused me to try to remember the number of
Black Persons I even saw in Northern California when
I lived there in the Seventies. I seem to remember it was
very few.

I also recall that the Klan is very strong in your Pacific Northwest.

Hey,I know quite well having grown up in Northern Cali how few blacks I ever ran into.
Yet why would my post irritate you?I never said the North was free from problems of the racial kind.Quite the contrary.
Yet I am not going to sit up here and say the South is squeaky clean.I was fortunate to have had a number of close friends of both races who showed my things I could have never seen on my own.
