Please explain. As someone who grew up in the South, went to college and now lives in the Northeast, and spends a lot of time on the West Coast (and plans to move there soon), I do not agree. There is more racial and economic segregation in the Northeast, but that is
de facto segregation and not
de jure the way that it was in the South until fairly recently.
No place is perfect, but until black men are dragged by trucks in Connecticut, please spare me on how "violent racism isn't indicative of the new South, mostly indicative of the West Coast and Northeast."
