Wife and I just got back from a trip to a more populace area to do some shopping. We hit at least three towns, two of 100K or more people, stopped at several stores.
I just ask her "did we see any blacks today" she had the same answer I had " not that I recall."
Let's see ya do that anywhere anytime in Dixie, or damn near anywhere east of the Rockies. This is common here not out of the ordinary at all. It might be months not seeing anything but Caucasian and Hispanics or maybe an Asian here and there.
If ya don't think so , check some demographics
