At least they were sufficiently stupid to be direct about it rather than giving the usual runaround and denial that this had anything to do with race. Most racists who deny services to people they don't like find an excuse and refuse to even acknowledge that they're being discriminatory.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that "America" is not defined by 1 church in Mississippi.
Nice try to throw America under the bus, yet again.

Which is why I said "further proof". There's plenty of other evidence out there that shows how America is still ridden with racism.
The main fact that we still say "black man" or "white man" shows there is still racism in America. Why can't we just say "man"? No one can throw America under the bus because it's already been there for a long time now.
Because race will always matter. Just like gender will always matter.The main fact that we still say "black man" or "white man" shows there is still racism in America. Why can't we just say "man"? No one can throw America under the bus because it's already been there for a long time now.

but it's different when it's your life
Well genetics are unchanging. So it says that we will always have racial tensions and incidents like this church, as long as genetics stay the way they are.That does not really answer the question, it just substitutes one word for another.
