Excellent point. Folks love to talk about how oppressed black southerners are, but you will find more blacks in positions of political leadership in the South and Southeast than you will in any other part of the United States. I'm not sure I agree that the slavery and the Civil Rights movement are things to be "gotten over", but to say that life is terrible just because black women may or may not be admitted to NPC chapters south of the Mason/Dixon line is kind of a myopic view.
