Ask Jackie Robinson or former Celtics great Bill Russell if there was racism in the north?

If I’m not mistaken, the KKK originated in New York.

I’m really tired of “The South” being used as a pejorative.

The first Klan was founded in 1865
in Pulaski, Tennessee,
as a terrorist organization

Here’s what’s true as a matter of historical fact: The Democrats started the KKK, and the NAACP was started by white Republicans.
