I'm sorry, the first part of your post said something about the south not being racist anymore, right?

Ummm, no. Wrong.

Correct, ktsnake. Her actual quote was:
"That really erks me when people think that the South
is just full of hate and racism. Sure, we still have
people here that are racist or biased. But, I can tell you that I am more likely to experience racism in the Ohio or New York, than here in Georgia. I am more likely to experience racism in California than here in the south. So, don't think that just b/c you live in 'a diverse state' or go to a 'diverse school' that you're immune from racism." (Emphasis added.)
