How massively revisionist. I’m sorry, I can’t take that sort of bullshit seriously.

Yeah, it was just because of the mean government that businesses didn’t “do the right thing”. It’s not like businesses fought against integration on their own, and refused to integrate when there weren’t laws keeping them from hiring and serving black people.

Fucking pathetic, Rogue.

Revisionist? If businesses were unwilling to deal with black people then what was the necessity of the Jim Crow laws? The segregation was government enforced, there isn’t any way around that.
