[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you familiar with the Civil War and which state was a member of the confederacy?[/quote] This. It literally goes back to the Civil War, then Jim Crow. That said, Maryland and the District itself also had Jim Crow laws, segregation, and racial covenants. But Marylanders and District whites were - generally - less violent toward blacks, Jews, and Catholics than their Virginian counterparts at the societal level. [/quote]
