There was a lot of racism there. Heck, I saw a copy of a census where my great grandfather was listed as mulatto for some reason.

You know which census? Or why great-granddad was so listed? I’m guessing it may have been(?)1920? 1930? Immigration policy in the 1920’s was pretty much racism-based all the way down: there was a reason why the quotas set in place after 1924 were restrictively based on the “national origins” data from the Census of 1890: they figured it would keep the numbers of Italians and Jews down, among others.
