That is precisely the experience I have whenever I go back to the Deep South - other white people see me (and realize that I grew up there) and assume I’m as racist as they are. - Glenn Rocess

I, however, found the people so racist that I couldn’t live there. It was quite extraodinary the way I would meet other white people, and three minutes (and I’m not exaggerating) after meeting them, they would immediately assume that because I was white, I loathed ‘the other.’

Retired Navy. Inveterate contrarian. If I haven’t done it, I’ve usually done something close.
