Maybe cotto salami

Actually old dawg - I lived in those days too.  Separate restrooms and water fountains, seats at the back of the bus or in the balcony.  A sign hanging over the entrance to my town that said "Welcome to Greenville, the Blackest Land the Whitest People" (and one hundreds of miles further south in Vidor that said "Nigger Don't Let the Sun Sit on Your Skin in Vidor Texas" - and it meant what it said too).

Racism was rampant - though much of it WAS fueled by the carpetbagging Jim Crows of the south after a war that had very little to do with slavery.  And - old as you may be Methusalah Meanster, you aren't so old to remember THOSE days.

What has happened is that, instead of providing the blacks with the tools they needed to lift themselves up by their bootstraps (education, skills and job training), our politicians have instead doled out enough welfare and rewarded them for being baby factories with just enough money to keep them in the crime filled and decaying ghettos and bread generations who know only welfare and crime - and who vote as a bloc for the very liberal elites whose policies condemn them and their children to poverty and crime.
