If Southern anti-segregationists and civil rights groups had not stood firm against discrimination, Jim Crow would have never ended.

Please, the south stood firm for discrimination, they stood so firm the south switched parties en masse in reaction to civil rights.

Just like 100 years earlier the south had to be drug to decency at gunpoint.

Also, your remarks have lead me to believe that you seem to think racism simply never existed in the North, which is just an entirely laughable concept.

I am brown, and partly grew up in the south, and Midwest, and the coasts.

PLEASE!!!!! Lecture me on how racism is equal everywhere and not just massively and brutally expressed in the south.

I am DYING to hear how my experiences were all a lie.

Many of us have reason to hate the south, just like I'm sure a lot of Jews had bad feelings about the nazis.

And the nazis actually copied many of their policies from the south verbatim, particularly the Nuremberg Laws from Jim crow.

If the south had a single grain of decency and shame within them, they'd spontaneously combust, lucky for them they don't.
