I was gonna star this already but then I got to the Nordstrom Rack in Beaverton and wanted to super-star it

Nordstrom Rack is an impressive establishment. I was not asking why people would move today. I was more curious about why they would in the mid 1800's pre-nordstrom lol

Man, I came across so much information about Indiana's Klan presence while researching this. Terrifying stuff.

Surprised this hasn't been posted yet.

You don't want conversation, you want validation. It's like having a conversation on the merits of ignoring cancer, because, you know, you didn't go look for it and don't have it. No big deal then.

This is why I will never understand people who claim there's no such thing as white privilege. Just three generations ago black people were banned from Oregon. Just two generations ago black people were allowed to be banned from schools and other public and private institutions. Well into the 1980s, financial…

Except, you know, the evidence presented in the article.

What it means is that Northerners learn about civil rights as something that "evil southerners" did, rather than as a nation wide problem that continues into the present day. It gives you/them/us a reason for complacency, and permission to dismiss ongoing problems in the south as something Southerners "deserve".

I think mostly as northerners, we learn that the south was the bad racist slave loving people. The authors point was that pretty much everywhere was crappy to black people at that time in History, and you never hear about Oregon being so racial pointed during this time frame.

The problem is that's not what happens. The judgmental attitude creates its own biases and prejudices instead. The South is a very convenient enemy to create that in the mind of non-South white people absolves them of the sins of racial tension in this country. "They're the intolerant ones - we did nothing wrong."…

That's like saying "People played football in America? No way!" At the end of an article giving lots of very detailed and specific insights into how the NFL came to exist.

F. See me after class.

The point, informative. Like how it informed me that they had a law that forbade black people from living in their state. I had no idea, I know I can not be the only one.

How could you not include this part?

Check this part out:

People are jealous that they aren't confident enough and attractive enough.
