Whites only towns in the 40’s 50’s 60s.
Whites made a big effort to eliminate that.
In return, the Blacks have repsonded.
Today it’s Blacks only housing and other things on college campii.
On a side note, in southwest Atlanta I tended to a man dying that finally died...and not a single soul was white in that 3 story nursing home. I was the only white person I ever saw in that place and I only visited twice a week.
Patients, staff...100% black.
Then there’s several small businesses in Atlanta 100% black, many schools virtually all black and colleges like Spellman, Morehouse the same way.
Never ever venture into Burnout,Alabama, Never,,,.If you do , say yes sir or no sir at the appropriate time..
White guy and a Black guy have a little parking lot fender bender.
White guy: I’m gonna’ sue your azz!
Black guy: I’m gonna’ kick your azz!
Two men, one black, and one white, apply for a job. The black guy gets it.
White guy: He got the job because he’s black.
Black guy: I got the job because I was the bet qualified applicant.
The moral of the story is:
We each have issues to deal with and get over.
The question is:
Which of us is doing better at dealing with them?
This sounds like a fascinating book. Many thanks for the post!

.
the popular movie FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS which later highlighted Odessa Permian was originally filmed by two 60; and 70’s Texas high school powerhouses...Iowa Park and Brownwood Texas.........When Iowa Park ,by 12 students, were moved up to 3-a football,Hollywod can with cameras in hand.........The affair took 6 months to film including the friday night game.........I know I was on the IowaPark team....
When it was all in the can,the unions and Hollywood killed to movie...Later in was relegated to a book..Iowa Park got one paragraph in the book..........
...........know why ??????? 20 straight years winning district, 21 further playoff wins and 2 state championships
but without any black athletes..........While blacks live there now, they did not then, so no movie for you !!!
.......true story, I was on the team
I am a southerner, and I can tell you that the north has the most segregated (and racist) communities.... example, boston, chicago, philly. Compare the modern day segregation in those communities to Houston or Atlanta.
I think slavery (like abortion) is a horrific crime and an affront to all humanity, however I am tired of the holier than thou attitude and carpetbaggers raping the south (can you say Interstate Commerce?) NY gets natural gas cheaper than people living 1 mile from the well because the continued rape of the south’s resources by the interstate commerce and the federalist positions.
Read this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emancipation_proclamation
don’t you think it funny that the north by proclamation freed the southern slaves while keeping the slaves in the north in bondage? If you want a real education, go back and read the NY Times headlines for 1-2 years before the war broke out and you will find out the TRUTH, rather then the victor’s “Whitewashed” (no pun intended) version of history.
Like today with Abortion, both parties find a reason to keep it around while 77% of the people want it stopped. Hopefully we won’t have to have a war to stop the MILLIONS of murders of innocent babies a year (a large part of the black, by the way).
Add up the abortion deaths 1976 through today and you get 30-50 Million.
And where does abortion find it’s strongest supporters? The Northeast.
And they are rude, and crude too.
Northeasterners are rude, and crude? Have you been there, or are you like some people who just spout out, talking nonsense. Oh, and by the way, the NORTH did not free the slaves, Abe Lincoln did through the Emancipation Proclamation. Maybe if the South hadn’t started the Civil War, and lost, you wouldn’t have anything to complain about. But reading your last post, I’m not so sure.
Today, of course, the sundown towns are the inner-cities where whitey better not let the sun set on his a$$. There and surrounding areas where the criminal predators swarm once they’ve sucked the life out of their communities.
There’s been two towns in Maine with an episode each of African-Americans being burned out and chased out of the town, since 2000.
I have to drive through those two towns to get to a camping ground every summer. Never been as hyper aware of the hatred against NJ license plates as when I drive through there.
Another story, the town south of my hometown in NJ in the 1910’s, the local KKK couldn’t force out 2 Jewish families from the town, so the KKK, which ran the town council, renamed the road Kike Road. When the KKK had good old town KKK day parades, they would veer of the main street and walk past the Kike Road while doing what ever you do in bedsheets to intimidate the Jooos.
Those two Jewish families were headed by two Silesian military veterans from what I heard. They must have been tough as nails, the KKK families ran the town much of the last 80 years since then. The state of NJ under Gov Florio passed a law to rename all racist and derogatory place names. So out with Nigger pond and Kike Road in my area.
Funny joke told to me by a black guy:
A white guy, black guy, Mexican guy, and Japanese guy climbed to the top of a mountain.
In a fit of inspiration, the Japanese guy screamed “for my people!”, and jumped off the mountain. Next, the Mexican guy screamed “for my people!”, and jumped off the mountain.
Next, the black guy screamed “for my people!”, and threw the white guy off the mountain.
what we need in the USA is another book on the civil war and another book on slavery !
....the SOUTH started the War Between the States???
Let me guess. Public school education...in the North. Right?
Them uncolored people can be so mean.
Absolutely. They put that fort in Charleston right where the yankees liked to shoot their cannons. The South started it.
And exactly which political party totally dominated the South from Reconstruction onward?
