In a recent poll, in every single county in Mississippi, the majority of people were against interracial marriage.That is simple racism.
Personally, some of the most racist people I've met were Blacks. Especially Black women, when it comes to interracial marriage. They detest Black men that marry White women.

(NEWSER) – Racism is alive and well in America—among black people. Or at least, that's what a lot of Americans apparently believe according to a new Rasmussen Poll. The poll found that 37% of Americans believe that most black people are racist, while only 15% said the same of whites, and 18% said the same of Hispanics. Here's how the sentiment breaks down among white and black Americans: Among whites, 10% think most whites are racist, 38% says most blacks are racist, and 17% say most Hispanics are racist. Among blacks, 31% say most blacks are racist, 24% say most whites are racist, and 15% say most Hispanics are racist.

Americans who are willing to factually learn the history of racism have no difficulty discussing the issue.

Members of the Democratic party who have recently been taught the ugly history of their party, have difficulty discussing racism. Because, they know the more Americans learn, the more they will turn away from the party of the KKK, the party of Jim Crow Laws, and the party of lynchings.

Watch this video to learn more of the actual history of racism in America. Not the invented dreamed up liberal version, which has removed the Democratic parties role in fomenting hate toward other Americans, simply because of the color of their skin.

Voter suppression used to be a big deal in the south.

So even you admit that it is past tense. Then why oppose voter ID or any laws that will insure clean elections? Are you afraid that your side can't win a fair election?
