I never claimed that racism no longer exists. Look at where I live,
near the area that supplied KKK and Nazis to go with guns to the "Death To The Clan" rally in Greensboro NC years ago 
wher they shot and killed about 5 CWP members (Communist Workers Party), all from towns near me, Pittsboro, Durham
(several doctors at Duke Univ. Med. Center) and elsewhere, and the murderers 
were acquitted. During a heavy snowstorm
years ago I was stranded at home, went one morning to check for mail down on 
the highway, find my driveway gate closed
with something hanging over the top of it; I climb over and take a look to see attached to a stout piece of wire a big 
sheet of plywood painted black with, in gold halloween calligraphy, KKK paited in bold letters. I called the sherrif's 
department who sent a Black deputy out. He, without a word, put the sign in his truck and left, no comment, never heard
a word about it again. Black churches burned in North Carolina within the 
past 15 or so years.
