[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in rural Va. in the 70's. My family didn't use the 'n' word or hate black people, but I did know older folks who did both, and it was because that was the way they were brought up and it was ingrained in them that whites were superior. They were too ignorant to know any better or to choose to believe anything else. Although I have been away from my hometown for a long time now, from what I see the black people are now accepted but it is the hispanic and asian people who are talked badly about, and some of that is because there are not many hispanic families for people to even get to know. Fear of the unknown can lead close-minded people to all sorts of ideas. For those who are racist, there will always be a group to spew hatred about. Hopefully the younger generations can be more accepting of everyone. [/quote]
