By the 1980's George Wallace had changed his views from segregation to integration.

He actually started out as more open to integration and lost to a pro-s*grag*tion candidate. That's probably where he switched. He originally was a populist in the vain of Big Jim Folsom.

He actually entered politics as a moderate but didn't win, so he adopted pro segregation rhetoric because that is what won elections in the south at the time.

He was not a segregationist or a racist he ran the first time for governor not holding of that viewpoint and he lost so he ran with segregation an he just kept it like it was. So I mean he really didn't do nothing to worsen the situation but he really didn't do nothing to make it better ethier. I think it's unfair to label him racist I think he just said what would win him the governor spot in Alabama... Its sad but true.

I was a little boy during the 1960's in Tennessee. I would say that most white people in the South had no violence in their hearts against black people. Now there were some exceptions (example: KKK), but I think most white folks got along okay with the black folks. Now for a lot of peaceful white folks, there may have an invisible line in their minds that you did not cross. For example, white folks married white folks; and black folks married black folks. But unless you grew up in the South during that time, as a white person, it's kind of hard for other people to understand.

@@channdlerThere's no denying that he probably had some racism in his heart, but he was a strong "middle-ground" politician. He didnt want to diminish their rights, but instead, keep things as they are to stabilize society. He mentions that's the reason why he refused integrating University of Alabama, as he said "remember Ole Miss", in which the white people rioted and got violent.

@@channdler yeh, Wallace was a fool in that aspect. He was too hungry for power to fully realize who was around him. That's the common story of your average Southern politician, they unfortunately need something populist to cling on to for profit.
