They’re taught from an early age. I saw it for myself with my racist step-family who I cut off communication with decades ago. They hear N-word this and N-word that as kids. Once I was in the car with my step-grandad and his grandson at night, we were dropping off the grandson at his moms house before we headed home. We stopped at a light and there was a black man putting gas in his car at a gas station. My stepfamily had made up a “boogy man” scary make believe character called “N” word Jones to scare this 6 or 7 year old kid when he was misbehaving, like “if you keep being bad “N”word Jones is gonna come get you!” At the stoplight we saw this black man putting gas in his car and my step grandad was like “look Russell! There’s “N” word Jones!”

According to the 1998 documentary 'Th Ku Klux Klan: A Secret History', the Klan burns crosses to the show the 'Light of God' which is ironic as the burning cross is used as a form of intimidation.

Cross burning dates back to Medieval Europe, when Scottish clansmen would set fire to hillsides as a statement of military defiance or call to action for soldiers ahead of battle. Now, the KKK got a lot of inspiration from Scottish fraternities. The rituals, the hoods, the whole “clan” thing. But cross burning wasn’t part of the show until Birth of a Nation came out. (And who says violence in cinema has no effect

[@natchezlee3091]

Cross burning as a general intimidation and symbolic practice may be ancient, however the practice within the KKK happened after the 1915 release of “The Birth of A Nation” by DW Griffith. The same is true for the white hood, which was first seen in this film. The organized KKK was formerly dissolved and rebranded directly due to the release of this movie, and much of the imagery of the KKK was taken from DW Griffith’s imagery.

Oregon at one time was a state where it was illegal to live if you were black. Oregon still has a lot of white supremacists living here.

I made sure my kids had different experiences than I did. I moved us to an apartment complex near my college that had kids from 52 different countries.

When I was living in the South (I won't state exactly what state) in the mid 70s, there was a figure hanging from a tree on a side road going out of town, with a sign saying N.... don't let the sun go down on you. At this time, the civil rights movement had been put into law less than 10 years earlier. The KKK was pronounced by the US government as a un-American organization.They no longer could have a parade in the streets with their hoods on. They didn't care. They had their parades without the hoods. The local people all knew who they were anyway. You can change laws, but it takes a lot longer to change learned behavior. There are no racial lines to racism and hating is easy.

[@cindymatthewsarrowdalearts6449]

My mother, bless her, taught us that "colored people," were just white people turned inside out. I lived in rural Pennsylvania where our county was less than 5% non-white, including Orientals, blacks, Native American - you name it. I never even attended school with a black kid until I got to Jr High, and even then there were THREE in a school of over 800 kids. The town was very old fashioned and segregated by neighborhoods and ethnicity, including churches and markets - you name it. So there was a Polish neighborhood (and RC Church) and an Italian neighborhood (actually there were a few of those and RC Churches) and German neighborhoods (with a Reformed Church and also another with a Lutheran church) and of course, a couple of small black neighborhoods with associated churches. Partly this segregation was based on languages. These churches were language specific, with the Polish church speaking Polish, etc. My own family attended German speaking churches right up until the build up to WWI, when suddenly many German families tried to obliterate any trace of German heritage. My father, born in 1916, remembered getting punished for using the few German words he knew, and this was well after the war, but they were taking no chances, I guess! Hate comes in all forms, even self-hatred, it seems. Given all of the above, there was always a kind of casual, almost social racism growing up in that environment in the 60s and 70s. Polack jokes were common, as were, to a lesser degree, jokes about Roman Catholics in general and, of course, blacks. Stereotypes were the worst. If you went to one of the Polish markets to pick up some Eastern European style ingredient, you'd hear about it for days. "How far did you have to chase him," was heard often if a guy was wearing a brightly colored or patterned shirt, and when he'd ask, "Who?" he'd be told, "The *n-word* you stole that shirt from." And my parents considered themselves open-minded, even liberal about racial issues, but I heard my dad make that chasing comment more than once. They both had black friends, too. I have to say the more time they spent with those friends the less I heard those things from them. I could go on, with relatives whose "casual" racism was shocking to the four teens that my sister adopted from Philadelphia (much more racially diverse, of course) but who'd be horrified by hate crimes or blatant discrimination. I would like to finish with my own personal black/white story. My mother's closest friends were a black couple from out of town, who visited at least once a year. When they came, we always had a party so we''d all get to see them. I am one of six daughters and we all had families, of course, and by the time this story happened, a few of my sisters were grandmothers, themselves, so we were a big crowd. My sister Hazel and I are very close and live a block from one another and often, if she had need of someone to be at her house for a repairman or a kid being dropped off or, in this case, a bunch of people gathering for a party at her house before she could get there, I'd go to stand in for her. At this time, my sister had been recently widowed and one of her means of survival was renting out her basement to a college student named Mike. Our friends had just come to town and we were having a barbecue at Hazel's but she was working and would be late so there I was, greeting people and storing food until the party could begin. Her house is a split foyer, where one walks into the front door to a set of stairs going up to the main floor and another going down to the lower level/basement. Our friends, btw, were of course, black, but her (Grace's) skin was that gorgeous cafe au lait color and his (Howard's) skin was so black as to be almost purple. Striking couple, and lovely people. I was sitting on the floor facing the stairs coming into the house, and the wrought iron railing that formed one wall of the living area. There were about a dozen of us sitting there, so I was on the floor, leaning against Grace's knees, and she was playing with my hair, as I recall. The renter, Mike came in and was kind of shocked to see all of these people. I was the only one in the room he knew so I stood and made the introductions, going from one sister to the next, to nieces and nephews, etc., and finished with Howard and Grace and I said, "And these are our parents." Poor Mike could not have looked more confused! :)

Incensed by a racist political party led by Pauline Hanson who's not exactly liked by a lot of Aussies a group of local Aboriginal men started some trouble. Normally it's a pretty face area where racism isn't tolerated. But that group of men went out looking for white people to beat up.

Then the three men followed him after he exited the house to continue jogging and that is when he was shot.

She was scared to death. I'm surprised this stuff still happens. I truly don't get it. I grew up in the South (Georgia, Texas) and then lived for 30-years in Los Angeles. I recently retired to Texas because I have two invalid parents here. I haven't found it to be like it was when I was a kid in the early 70s and 80s....so, like I said, I'm really blown away that these more recent cases occurred.

The second one was NOT KKK related. It was an example of authoritarian police mentality. The reason it took so long to charge them is because of that "thin blue line". Some folk, many behind badges, think they are entitled to know everything about what's going on around them and to get to the bottom of anything they don't know about. They were wanna be vigilantees looking to take down the "burglar". To put this in context, there are exactly ZERO construction sites that have not been robbed, so there was indeed cause for the neighborhood to be on alert. Being alert for thieves does not grant citizens arrest authority. They kidnapped the guy to find out and the poor guy payed with his life. This is horrible, but not racism. This is a retired tyrant on the neighborhood watch type thing.
