The Coast was a hell of a lot more intergrated than the rest of the state before the storm. I had a huge high school and we were very diverse. This thing where all the whites go to private schools and the blacks go to public schools exists mainly in and around Hattiesburg and everywhere north of there. It's really bad in the Delta I hear.

Everybody from the Coast though knows that it's a lot more like Mobile or West Florida than Mississippi in the first place so that explains that.

I think most of the people inland still haven't come in yet from the 60's. For some reason both races still see it neccessary to voluntarily segregate themselves from eachother. It's nobody's choice but their own. When they get their problems straight they'll finally have reform. Until then it's going to continue on the way it's always been.
