The closest I came to the south was Carbondale, Il. We had some fam up there. They took me to a town over for Herrin Fest and there was major tension and everybody was segregated. Then we went to the after dark chill spot and it was crazy(in a bad way). Pretty much a rundown bridge and it was all tagged with the N word. It was a trip because it was like what they show in the movies.


Not saying the whole south is like that just pointing out some places is still big.

We're actually going to a "Private School" or something like that where you get disciplined pretty roughly.
I really don't wanna live in the south anymore, after reading this, But I think I can survive since My skin is a bit brown. (was white, we went to florida as a vacation. didn't use sunscreen blargh.)

From what I've heard from friends, the lighter your skin is the better off you will be. He said he went there with a black friend, and some restaurants they tried to go to they would ask them to leave because his friend was black. I said no way isn't that illegal, but apparently not in the south. I seen on the news they still segregate school dances. In California this is definitely against the law. So I would recommend not tanning or anything before you go.

Don't do drugs, don't smoke, don't drink until you're the legal age, and don't be pressured into doing anything you're uncomfortable with.
Join a sport! Even if you're unsporty/unfit/whatever other excuse you make, it can be one of the best decisions of your life as they can lead to sport scholarships, friends, and a new passion!
High school is all about labels, unfortunately, and they're hard to break, so make sure you introduce yourself to be the best person you can be!

Now I'm afraid of racism in america, since it still exists.

5hift 06-05-2015 04:58 PM

Yeah it exists, but you won't find it in every state like back in the 1960s.

I've never met a racist black. I met some people that will say blacks are racist for trying to pull the "race card" which means when the blacks say things like, "I wish I had privileges like a white person." Some would say that's a racist statement, but to me that is not racist. Racist is when you display hate for another race of people, wishing you were equal is not racist.

The only racist people you have to worry about is the police race, they are trained to not trust anyone, and you better speak English well when they are commanding you to do something, or you could be killed. I saw in news recently a Mexican man was killed in Texas by a chp officer for not getting on the ground when he was told to do so.. Guess what, the guy didn't speak English so how could he understand. So he was just another unarmed man killed by cops. That's the only people you should worry about, and cops come in all colors.
