To: null and void

I actually live on the eastern shore of Maryland. There are people this far north that still speak of black people as “colored.” I’ve been to NYC quite a bit and I don’t see the same sort of prejudices that exist in more rural areas of the country.

I spent some of my younger days in the south, and can vaguely recall restrooms for men, women, and colored.

Been on a couple visits recently, the South is way different now.

It's as if both sides finally said 'the Hell with it' and decided to try actually getting along for a change.
