304. actually
Edited on Thu Apr-08-04 02:05 PM by pezcore64
actually i live in the south.
racism exists in the entire country, unfortunately racism isnt just a regional scurge.
I live in kentucky.
In my town, there are three places(streets, blocks) where only blacks live and the rest is almost purely white.
i hate to tell ya dude, but regardless of where ever you go, you are gonna find racist people becuase people are generally ignorant(that maybe the one thing ive confirmed from getting into politics).

but hey, its a two street too.
ive been called 'white boy' more than a few times while in black residential areas. i didnt particularly like it, cause i do have a name, but what can i do about it? racist come in all shapes and sizes and colours.
ive met racist black people.
ive met racist hispanics.
ive even met racist asians!

Im sorry you had to be awoken from whatever fantasy you had about other parts of our country, but racism is alive and well in ALL PARTS of it. so dont go slamming north easterners when the whole country should be slammed.
