When I was a young teenager in Detroit in the 30s The whole city reeked of it, and we didn't realize it!My Mother,and all of her friends hired live in maids for
$10/ week, thur. and every other Sun. off.
They were referred to as Darkies when we thought about it. But casually, especially by us kids, as coons, wooly bugers,spades, and of course NIGGERS. Why not, everybody did it Jews were Hebes,Christ killers,etc. In the 30s, CentraL High was virtually
100 % Jewish. When we played football against them, We sang "Issie, Iky, aby Sam, we are the boys who eat no Ham, now we don 't care for fancy dishes, we just want Gefulta Fishes. Yay Central
Most of us didn't know about the Jim Crow laws. Father Coughlin spewed his hate every Sun. night on radio until Pope Pius 12 shut him off.
The purpose of this is to get you to realize how widespread nad pervasive it was I began to realize how awful it was when we began to learn about the Holocaust after the war.It turned me completly around on my prejudices, and also religion. See below
I think it is beyonsd understanding to the 2 generations younger than mine.
