I think that whole area of the South (especially Alabama/Georgia) still has a lot of recovering to do from the affects of racism.
I've visited a town on the Alabama/Georgia border, and was amazed at the difference in demeanor with African American's in that area!
If you see one in the grocery store, or just day to day, it's almost like they're scared to look you in the eye.
If you see them at church, they're fine, just like anyone else of every other color. I think that the reason for this sadly, is that racism still lives on in much of the south.

Don' know about history, but in the last 30 - 40 years, I'd have to say Michigan. They're all about TALKING about Diversity, but look at how the suburbs keep moving further away from Detroit, and the property values are incredibly inflated to keep blacks from following. A house that I own in Texas is worth a little over $200,000 but would cost half a million or more in northern Oakland County. And don't try telling me that property values are hotter there when the economy up there is sinking faster than theTitanic, and people are moving out faster than others are moving in. Including businesses.

Wow, i replaced into thinking "they are all redneck states." the reality that maximum folk of individuals have confidence in equivalent rights is a bad argument. maximum folk of individuals as quickly as believed in slavery too. the final public's basically means is to repeat the ideals they have been taught. people's evaluations are not very well worth the paper they are revealed on. If maximum folk helps some thing - something - it is a surprising indicator which you're able to be against it. i'm shocked that maximum folk think of the form already protects against gender discrimination. I knew it did no longer considering that freaking 2000 or some thing. Ignorant fcuks. yet gender and race are 2 countless issues. women people have been meant to fulfill a distinctive place in life than men have been. that's glaring from each and every element of their biology and psychology, no count how lots you pick to argue that's bigoted, previous formed, previous, besides the fact that. that's glaring interior the way maximum folk of girls people behave, their priorities whilst finding out on a mate, their needs, even their actual bodies. you won't be able to make a similar argument for race. So that's in all risk extra appropriate if we dangle directly to the previous techniques, which make so lots extra experience than the fashionable techniques. the fashionable techniques have basically broken up the kinfolk and made present day women people depressing and no longer able to attain happiness. All you people who pat yourselves on the returned for being "good little feminists" are basically hurting women people.

I don't know which state has been more racist then but all I can say that racism was and still is unfortunately. It's also disgusting how the media is trying to increase hatred towards muslims and it's disgusting that the U.S. call us terrorists while at the same time they are supporting Israel's ethnic cleansing policy and waged a war against Iraq based on nothing but lies.

I'm an Alabaman, and I would have to say throughout history it's our state. Hey, it all happened here. That's nothing to be proud of, of course, and it doesn't reflect on our attitudes today. I'm 28, I grew up in a multiracial neighborhood in the 1980s and none of us even thought twice about race. I wish the yankees would realize that...

Rosewood Florida has a bad reputation as well. If you have never seen the movie I highly recommend it. It really breaks your heart to know that people have suffered so severly because of racist people.
