[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you been to the west coast and Virginia?  One is a lovely and thriving. The other is waiting for the south to rise again. [/quote]

Seeing as both Alexandria and Arlington have recently changed the name of "Jeff Davis Highway" to Richmond Highway, Arlington changed Washington-Lee HS to Washington-Loving (after the couple in the lawsuit that ended laws against interracial marriage)  and Fairfax has changed JEB Stuart HS to Justice HS, I think that is not correct, at least for NoVa.   Also you should take a look at our legislative delegation - almost all Dems, some moderate, some progressive, including women, POC's, Jews, and one transgender.

If Virginia leads the South to rise again, it will be a very different South.  But I wouldn't count on Alabama or South Carolina to follow Virginia's lead. [/quote]

And you have the gigantic stars and bars flying next to 95 south just below the express lanes. And KKK flyers in Loudon county. You NOVA dems, who I like, are stuck in the south. You cannot separate from the history and connection to the rest of the state. Now let’s talk about the NRA next..,[/quote]

I am moving to NoVa but am actually more embarrassed about the history of race relations in other places I’ve lived (Chicago, Boston). The hypocrisy of northern racism of recent decades and today is as bad or worse than the South. At least in the South most people feel badly about slavery.  I don’t think most people in Boston feel badly about the anti-busing protests.[/quote]
