I wonder if the OP (yes, I did read this one because I find this topic interesting) knows that there were more Sundown Towns in the northeast, Midwest, and west coast than there ever were in the south?
so are the people who supported your OP laws
tard
Those weren't laws, they were threats idiot child.
And, that was a common practice when I was a teenager, so they can hardly all be dead.
your excuse is that robert kkk byrd is dead, yet, not all folks from his gen are dead and there were in fact KKK dems you dishonest prick
all you do is lie rdean.
and they weren't laws????? really???? from your own link: by force, law, or custom.
idiot child
To them that is Free Association, for whitey only of course...
You delusion fucks are talking about something that happened almost 60 years ago as if it relates to people today.
Rdean and pretty much anything he posts is a waste of time.

To repeat: the most important thing I learned from this book is how widespread sundown towns were-- from Appleton, Wisconsin (one of the larger sundown towns), to La Jolla, California, to places in Maine, to nearly the entire state of Idaho. The deep south actually had fewer sundown towns than the rest of the country-- while African-Americans suffered plenty of discrimination there, most White southerners were not interested in excluding blacks from their towns...

or your mother and father had lived under the degrading conditions of Jim Crow that denied generations of Blacks an equal opportunity to reach their full human potential (an oppoirtunity that whites have taken for granted for generations) you would not be so ready to dismiss recent history as irrelevant. Even Clarence Thomas in his autobiographical "My Grandfather's Son" reveals a residual anger continuously bubbling just below the surface at the racism he had to endure and overcome. And he certainly can't be dismissed as "just another whining Black".
I'd be fine in any of the countries my people come from, which are Scotland, Ireland, Germany, and England.So it's all good then eh? Whitey gets a pass on racism?
Pretty much. Just be thankful you live in the USA.
Sorry little buddy, my people founded the place, it's my country not yours. Need help packing?I'd be fine in any of the countries my people come from, which are Scotland, Ireland, Germany, and England.Pretty much. Just be thankful you live in the USA.

Book Review: Sundown Towns
Hmm, let's see. I posted a link with a map showing where so many of these towns are. And that would surprise me? Republicans are spread across the country, so why wouldn't white racists?
You wouldn't know that by reading this site. Here only the Dems are racist even though the GOP doesn't have enough darkies in it to fill the back booth at Denny's...Gives us a break, Dean. there is dirt on the hands of both Democrats and Republicans when it comes to racism.
I know what I want
I want that asylum rdean is housed in to put him in a straight jacket, permanently
no more torture for us, wouldn't that be wonderful.
please pretty please
Poor DB. She thinks everyone is mean, but she is Maria Kutschera.

Texas city haunted by 'no blacks after dark' past - CNN.com
Vidor was one of hundreds of communities in America known as "sundown towns," places where blacks were not welcome after dark. In some of these towns, signs -- handwritten or printed -- were posted, saying things like "Whites Only After Dark." But in general, sundown towns existed by reputation. Blacks knew they were places to avoid after dark.
"I don't mind being friends with them, talking and stuff like that, but as far as mingling and eating with them, all that kind of stuff, that's where I draw the line." (come on people, you know that town doesn't vote Democrat and the KKK would NEVER belong to a party that welcomes blacks - they would prefer a party that's 90% white regardless of what they "imagine" the history to be)
-----------------------------
From Maine to California, thousands of communities kept out African Americans (or sometimes Chinese Americans, Jewish Americans, etc.) by force, law, or custom. These communities are sometimes called "sundown towns" because some of them posted signs at their city limits reading, typically, "******, Don't Let The Sun Go Down On You In ___." Some towns are still all white on purpose. Their chilling stories have been joined more recently by the many elite (and some not so elite) suburbs like Grosse Pointe, MI, or Edina, MN, that have excluded nonwhites by "kinder gentler means." When I began this research, I expected to find about 10 sundown towns in Illinois (my home state) and perhaps 50 across the country. Instead, I have found more than 440 in Illinois and thousands across the United States

Travel guide helped African-Americans navigate tricky times - CNN.com
Atlanta (CNN) -- Ernest Green hit the roads of the segregated South as a teen in the 1950s, using a travel guide that pointed out safe havens where African-Americans could eat and stay.
The pamphlet promoted vacation without humiliation.
"It was one of the survival tools of segregated life," Green says.
Imagine needing this in America. Doing this to people who had been slaves and mistreated by confederate whites for centuries. Hmmm, who are the confederate whites today?
Anyone? Hint: They fly this flag:

I thought that at the most, there were probably only a few hundred of these towns. Imagine my surprise to find there were over 10,000 spread all over the United States?
The reason those in Ferguson and who are in charge are freaking out is because they never had to deal with this before. Their curfew is turning that area into a "Sundown Town" and that's what happens when you act in ignorance. Kind of like what Republicans did in Iraq.
How many Republicans on the USMB see "Sundown Towns" and a "Green Guides" as "good things"? Come on. Be honest.

hjmick is correct, both sides are not innocent. even today.

What part of all humans are racist, said by me dozens of times, means I think only the GOP is racist?
Whether you agree with it or not is not my concern. I say so so keep that in mind the next time you throw partisan crap my way.odd because you and rdean always claim only the gop is racist

I'm not sure I would agree that all humans are racist. Do all humans have the potential to be racist? Probably. But a good portion of them are able to deny that impulse... It's a shame not all of them can.
