Dr. Fishopolis posted:Sure, and I'd go so far as to say that's my majority experience of the american south, and a minority experience of northeastern cities. Not so much on the west coast except Arizona and northern california. But I think urbanization has been slowly chipping away at that mentality as far as the prevailing american narrative goes. It's an easy position to hold when you live in the boonies or a gated community, it's much harder when you actually have neighbors and co-workers and people you see on the subway every day that aren't white or straight. I think if you went to non-urbanized parts of Oregon and Washington, you'd find people who'd agree that white people are better than black people just as easily as you would in the south. You'd probably have to get people drunk in Portland to get them to say something like that, but it's not an accident that Portland's black population is a tiny percentage of the population and most black families live in one neighborhood.
