I'm sure that's the case around Beaufort. That's civilization. Go across
the state to Greenville. Folks who live within however many miles of an
ocean tend to accept shifting norms more easily that inlanders. While I live
in one of the most racially harmonious towns in St. Louis County, it wasn't
that way when we moved back here almost 22 years ago. Ferguson is more unenlightened, yes, but mostly it's just poorer and Blacker.

There is a pervasive opinion among so many Whites that Blacks are inferior,
and that's often the case with Whites who are themselves candidates for
eugenic non-reproduction. The thing is, whatever your ancestry, the
environment, both materially and culturally that you grow up in certainly
trumps your racial characteristics, and White supremacists can't quite
accept that.
