I have come to respect the openness of Southern US racism. There is a comfort in knowing what tomorrow brings. Northern US racism is ugly because it is underground. Southerners know when to press to their clothes. Northerners rarely do.
Of course I have oversimplified the issue. This thread reminds me of my worries as I watch my northern neighborhood try to split hairs. We are trying to persuade each other like peacocks and forgetting that we are humans.

Racism in any form for any reason, whether overt or covert, should be repugnant. It demeans and diminishes all of us, and diminishes our collective potential.
