Race Relations

I live in a very racially diverse town in Central FL. What has always amazed me is how racially intolerant and segregated places like NY, LA and other "more enlightened" Northern and Western places are, as opposed to their reputations. The South has far more integration, more women and minorities in management and ownership positions in business than in the North and West... we are far more diverse than the North.
The new KKK, the Order and other major racists movements have all started North of the Mason Dixon. Just because your racism is less vocal does not mean it is less prevalent, quite the opposite apparently.
