Thanks for this. Anyone who thinks for 2 seconds that racism, white supremacy and the oppression of blacks is worse today, or even worsening, needs to grab a mid-19th century history book and read up on Jim Crow and the humiliating & un-American things it did every day to  ten million blacks in the South circa 1948.  Read U.S. Senator Bilbo's "best" quotes, delivered in the Senate or on the stump in Mississippi. Trump's idiot tweeting and clumsy or inadvertent race baiting can't compare to the least bigoted Southern congressmen of that era. It was the Southern Dems in Congress like Bilbo and his ilk who protected Jim Crow from federal spanking for 7 decades while Northern Dems like FDR coddled or ignored Jim Crow's blatant sins to keep the "Solid South's" electoral vote in presidential elections. My 1948 history "30 Days a Black Man" details black lives under America's apartheid in the South.  Rothstein's great "The Color of Law" details how racist govt. policies segregated the North.
