[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There were black people in Kansas in the 80s. Regardless: go back and watch movies from the 1980s, and you’ll notice a total lack of any diversity. The lack of *any* representation—even a token amount—is glaring. [/quote] It's glaring now. It wasn't then. I grew up in a rural small town. High School was in a central small town, drawing from 5 others around it. I can count on one hand the number of minorities among the 450 population. The town I grew up in had no people of color. No representation from anywhere with people having skin other than white. Two people were disabled, that's as diverse as it got. Those towns did exist. Maybe still do.[/quote]
