My grandfather told me, when I was going off to college, that I couldn't come in his house if I got a "Chinee" boyfriend.

I told him that was okay, I didn't need to come in his house.

I'll go with you to his house just to piss him off.

the north is more racist than the south.
 

The nonchalant racism from members of my grandparents generation was entertaining at thoes times.

Having never been more north than Denver before, I wouldn't know. However, everyone always insults the South for being filled with racist rednecks and such, and I'd imagine that it'd be especially strong for older people.

i received that piece of wisdom from an indian guy who grew up in chicago and moved to east texas (home of the KKK) after college.

he said the north is way more racist, especially rural areas.

And the East and West make money off of it as well. What's your point?
There is only one race.... The Human Race. Everything else is just as stupid as "secret societies".

I've lived in MI, PA, and GA.


The northern states I lived in were way way more racist. I won't go into what I think caused it.

Hmmm... for some reason I can't actually think of many cases of blatant racism. In fact, the only cases I can think of are Native Hawaiians with "Go away whitey!" signs in their front yards.

EDIT: Oh, and I met a guy with a swastika tattooed to his forehead.

LOL michigan has the highest concentration of KKK members out side of alabama or something. But thats because in the 40's, alot of African Americans moved up for auto jobs...

i think it has more to do wtih the fact that the american south is the most integrated place on the planet with more contact between people of various races on a daily basis than anywhere else in the world.

but that could just be me.
