If you include the American south under Jim Crow it goes until 1970.

Sometime read: 'The Warmth of Other Suns" by Isabelle Wilkerson to see how America was until 1970.

Yes, how America was. Then read Wilkerson’s CASTE to see the way it is now. Racism by any name is still Racism.

CASTE is definitely on my winter reading list this coming winter.

Mike, tremendous read...She even makes reference to the wholesale slaughter of Black Americans in a small East Texas town which I've since learned was Slocum back in the 1920's. I never ever heard of this until I researched the reference Wilkerson made.
