      I really hoped things had improved there in several decades, esp with the internet, but maybe not. :(

      e: this happened in a very rural town, with no national stores or anything. It was near my friend’s home, and I’m not suggesting the whole state was like that. It was a very rural place. Still, it left a massive impression and I can’t help but associate it with what I see now in much of the US south.

      Anyone thinking murderous racism is a thing of the past is dead wrong.
