The Freeper Stare

12. A Yankee here, but I've made many trips to visit relatives in the South since childhood.

My Mother's family is predominantly white, and stretches across the entire South. I've been visiting them since the late 60's.

My Mom's people are all somewhere from Center to Left, with no racists among them. Huge FDR fans among the generation before me (I'm in my early 60s).

There have been interracial marriages in recent decades, and there were "secret" similar relationships, I've been told, going back to the 1920's. I have folks on my Mom's side who are white, black, and Native American.

I saw some minor racist behavior now and then, but not like it seems to be now.
White nationalists have been pushing for trouble for a long time now. I hope it ends very, very badly for them.
