Many Deep South Republican Voters Believe Interracial Marriage Should Be Illegal

The message seems to be that Southerners and Republicans are racist. Are states that are in the North of the country and largely vote for the Democratic Party really so open-minded and tolerant?

Here is a recent article with a critic of one such Northern state published the Huffington Post:

"Nowadays, New York state is home to the nation’s most segregated schools.


For several decades, the state has been more segregated for blacks than any Southern state, though the South has a much higher percent of African American students,” wrote the authors of a report from the UCLA Civil Rights Project in 2014.


For Delmont, that statistic is less than surprising.


“When you actually dig into it, some of the language is different and some of the ways in which they achieved segregation of schools is different, but the outcomes were often not very different than what was going on in the South,” he said."


The South Isn't The Reason Schools Are Still Segregated, New York Is

.


Thanks, Decus.....


Check this out....it supports exactly what you posted:

"Do you know which state has the worst ratio of white voter turnout to African-American voter turnout? Massachusetts. Do you know what has the best, where African-American turnout actually exceeds white turnout? Mississippi."
John Robertson Wednesday, February 27th, 2013 in a Supreme Court oral argument
And that is supposed to have what-exactly to do with the thread topic and the degree of racism in the south ?



Decus said this:

I showed that the most Liberal of states, Massachusetts, can be shown in a similar light.


Was that really so difficult for you to fathom?

That still does not touch on the issue of support for interracial marriage .

....... You presentation of the situation in NY in the 50's is a thinly disguised attempt to discredit the point of the OP and it's not working.

What clown college did you graduate from? Read the article. Huffington Post published the article based on a UCLA Civil Rights Project written in 2014 which describes the state of segregation in New York now. The article mentions that New York has a long history of segregation and that the problem has only grown worse. From the article:

I graduated from Rutgers with a Masters degree in Public Administration. The reasons for segregation in the north are economic inequality. There are those in the south that think that they have won the civil war and that blacks should still be slaves. If a mixed race could walked into a bar- where do you think that they are more likely to get a hard time? New York or Misssisippi?

Economic inequality is the reason white parents don't want to send their children to racially mixed schools? Really?

Oh Christ NO!. That is not what I'm saying! Do you understand how things work? Kids who go to public schools-which are most of them are assigned to schools based on where they live. People live where they can afford to live. Got that Bubba? If we are talking about private schools, it may be a matter of affordability as well, even with charter schools. Geeezzzz

Thankfully in less then a generation these "people" will be long gone or totally marginalized


Despite the fact that the number of interracial marriages in the U.S. reached an all-time high this year, there are many who still believe that mixed-race marriage is unacceptable and should be made illegal, according to a new report.

On Monday, polling firm Public Policy Polling (PPP) revealed that 29 percent of likely GOP voters surveyed in Mississippi believe that interracial marriage should be illegal. Fifty-four percent said intermarriage should remain legal, and the rest responded that they weren’t sure. The survey also found that 21 percent of likely GOP voters polled in Alabama believe that interracial marriage should be illegal.



Interracial Marriage: Many Deep South Republican Voters Believe Interracial Marriage Should Be Illegal
I'm betting there are an equal number of black Democrats against interracial marriage, fool.
Really fool? Where are you getting that from? And so what if it's true? Intolerance by anyone is still intolerance and it does not exonerate these southern yahoos who do not know that they lost the civil war.

People have a right to believe as they do, and that includes being intolerant.

Grow up.

BTW, it was the Democrats who lost the Civil War, and will lose the next one as well.
No, the Democrats didn't lose the Civil War There were no Democrats in the Confederacy...Hell the Rebels were not even part of the US government anymore. Northern Republicans and Northern Democrats WON the Civil War together against the estranged South.
 
.....
No, the Democrats didn't lose the Civil War There were no Democrats in the Confederacy.........




The democrats are understandably ashamed of their past (so much so that they try to convince themselves of such nonsense), but fail to recognize the same stains that still cover them.

Substitute the word "conservatives" for Democrats and I will agree with you. Conservatives are responsible for the blatant racism in BOTH parties.

Yes you have a right to your bigoted antediluvian bovine excrement beliefs.

I'm from New York. Hardly a "southern yahoo".

You do not have the right to discriminate, marginalize or demean others.

Oh, I certainly do, and I exercise the right every day. You cannot stop me.

You do as well, re: "Southern yahoo".

And save that idiotic civil war era "Democrats as racist" horseshit. It is just desperate and stupid. That was then and this is now and we know what the Republicans stand for NOW

That works both ways, Comrade. A Progressive cannot be an American patriot. They are diametrically opposed.
Back before the American revolution conservatives wanted to stay loyal to England. It was liberal progressives that freed us.

Wrong as usual. The liberals of that time have no relation whatsoever to the "liberal progressives" of today. None.

Now you guys understand that? Because whenever you guys say Republicans freed the slaves and Republicans were responsible for civil rights you seem to not understand the evolution of the Republican Party. But now when it benefits you you seem to understand the difference between liberals back then and today

There is no spin, there is only facts and bullet proof logic. The northern liberals of both parties defeated the conservative South whose people were no longer US citizens. The Southern Bahs-turds were trespassing on US property :lol:
