[quote=Anonymous]Arlington has a lot of private pool clubs. Turns out that was to avoid "race mixing" in public pools. I was horrified when I found out. We have one a block away. A few years after we moved here, a 90+ year old lifelong resident next door pointed downslope from the pool and said "That's where they burned crosses." Egad. https://themetropole.blog/2019/02/21/african-american-life-in-arlington-virginia-during-segregation-a-geographers-point-of-view/[/quote]
