We really aren't that far removed from codified segregation. I have parents, who grew up in the NE US, not even in the South, and they remember living with segregation. Separate bathrooms, separate water fountains, different entrances (if people of color were allowed in the establishment at all), etc etc

And they're really not that old. Go ask your parents (or grandparents if you're a little younger. Or both).
