Correction. The Tuskegee airmen spent their entire time in Columbus Ohio. By this, they left for war (WWII, Korea, Vietnam) from Columbus, Ohio and returned to Columbus, Ohio. They did their flight training in Tuskegee Alabama. I am not accounting for the support roles and where they received training. For those that like to poke holes or feel I didn't recognize supporting roles. For context, this is about the airmen that flew the airplanes. During this time is when Meger Evers referred to the Tuskegee airmen as the ones who started the Civil Rights movement when the Tuskegee Airmen were already in Columbus Ohio -several years after Jessie Owens won the gold medal-. Check it. They were at Lockbourne Air Force Base. Lastly, My great Uncle Brigadier General Charles E McGee passed this on to me. Thanks again fellow airborne comrade.

When you start thinking about populations and who is where, it helps (like he said in other videos) to think about who settled there first and then what people were doing there. In most larger cities, and Birmingham is certainly getting up there for the south, you are going to have larger minority populations but their families might or might not have been in the region for a long time. Places like MS, GA, LA, and parts of TX, it makes sense that the flats and deltas would have had large farm lands back in the day. AL is a unique state in that, sure it is in the south east it has hilly, almost mountainous terrain in the north and lots of sports hunting and fishing along the Alabama River, Coosa, Chatahoochie, and Mobile Bay...sure they have great farm land around Dothan and Montgomery but most of the state was doing other stuff their entire history.

I haven’t seen the top Hispanic or Asian state videos yet, but also suspect some of the states at the bottom of those lists would also end up on this list.

Undermid the colour you're, if you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life, Successful people don't become that way overnight. most people see at a glance-wealth, a great career, purpose-is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life too 🙏🙏🙏

[@birbluv9595]

I can’t help adding something after reading a bunch of comments. In 2010 I went on a AAA tour in Egypt. I was in the white upstate half of the group, and the other half was a bunch of retired black female teachers (with a few young female relatives) from downstate NY. I hung out mostly with the black ladies who were more fun. When we got on an Italian Nile River cruise ship in Luxor, and were among Nubians (black Africans) all the way to Aswan, I was amazed. The Nubian guys kept calling up to the young black ladies wanting to marry them so they could get to America. I’ve never been so impressed about how much all Americans (regardless of color) are alike, and how distinct we are from people in other cultures.

I will always remember going into a tiny library (think it was somewhere in Louisiana) and a very elderly black lady finding it fascinating someone from London UK was in her library and wanting to talk to her. As I did for she was incredibly interesting to listen to. There was a raw, brutal honesty about her but with no desire for sympathy. A gracious, elegant lady but as tough as they come. She quickly realised I was thirsty and then asked if I wanted some homemade lemonade - well, asked as she came in with a large glassful for me! We spoke for a while and the lemonade I can still taste decades later, it was so, so good. Have never forgotten her, is hard to explain but just a simple meet and talk with this lady and her wonderful hospitality has stayed with me since.

My Dad is in an interacial relationship. When he bought land in North Carolina with the intention of building a house there he brought his girlfriend to tour the area with him. He invited her to live with him down there but she said that she wouldn't feel comfortable being there, not enough people of her own race lived in that area. It bummed my Dad out but it's understandable why she didn't want to live there. When you are the only person of your race in an area you stand out whether you try to or not. Sometimes you just want to be where you feel you belong and part of that is being around people who look like you and live a similar culture to the life you live. I think that these videos focusing on where the highest densities of each race live are useful to those of us who want to vacation or live in spots where they feel like they belong in. I don't think it's racist or bigoted most of the time but just want to not feel like they are always being watched simply for being different. That's just my thoughts on why these videos should be told, people are genuinely interested in where the largest majorities of "their people" are living across the country.
