I can’t believe in this day and age, they still had segregated proms.

I think the mainstream media loves to focus on racism in the South as if its exclusive to the South. As a person of mixed heritage, I can attest that there is racism in the bluest of blue states if not more than a state like Georgia. Race is just dealt with differently in different regions.

Thank you for pointing that out. The Southern racist meme does indeed get old.

They were segregated by choice rather than by force of law. Big difference.
