[Gregory-H21592]

I think that for many southerners, they have had more real world contact with black folks than many northern whites have had. Northern whites have read about blacks, and ‘had a black friend once’, but have never really interacted with them. Also, there is more shared history between blacks and whites in the south (often poor history admittedly), but they seem to just understand each other better. And just to be fair—there were quite a few lynchings and racially motivated arsons and mob violence in the north as well, it wasn’t strictly a southern phenomenon.
