huge changes, then vs. now.
I caught the tail end of White America as a child. I was born in a small midwest town, almost totally White at the time.
I can remember being 4 and 5, riding a big-wheel, all alone up and down the sidewalk, all around the block. Not a care in the world. Safe in the care of the Whites that lived all around me.
We have to get that back. That common identity that generated so much freedom and good.
