The south is the most conservative part of the country, the bible belt and the most bigoted part of the country.

You may want to be careful with the generalizations.

I have lived in the South for 52 years and in that time have seen very little overt racism.

On the other hand, I was in Boston in the summer of '76 and was caught up in a racial fight bigger than any brawl I've ever seen; it covered several city blocks.

I was shocked to see such open racial hatred, having never seen anything like it.
