RE: Whites only days

in #apartheid5 years ago

There is a childhood memory of mine while travelling through the US south with my family while on our way to Florida from the Great White North. It is the memory of seeing the more succinct "Whites Only" sign on most restraunts and hotels.

It makes one wonder how much has really changed when one looks at wealth distribution in SA or the incarceration rates of Blacks in the US.

Certainly, forward movement has been made, yet it seems on the scale of moving from slavery to Jim Crow as opposed to true equality.

Sort:  

I was thinking about this earlier and change has happened. Some too much as it is like payback now for what was done to them. In other areas very little change has happened and still today we see reports of a whites only bed and breakfast.Racism is still here and it is getting worse from what I see. There is a hatred on both sides and they despise each other. No one talks about it but you can see it in peoples attitudes.
