re: #133 SixDegrees

Nope. But I’m certain they follow the trends of the rest of the country, albeit at a different pace.

Thirty years ago, I knew of one inter-racial couple. Today, I see hundreds per week. The world has changed.

For the better. I’m just saying that this guy’s backwater probably didn’t present many examples in the past.

Why is it thought that this only began a couple of years ago, exactly?

SixDegrees - I do live in Louisiana, but I’ve never lived in a rural area, I’ve always lived in one of the larger towns/cities that had a college or university in it, and I’ve been in Baton Rouge for more than 30 years now.

And that is probably why I do not run across people like this Bardwell fellow. And in Baton Rouge (and I’m sure other areas as well), there are interracial couples galore.
