Ok ok.. seriously. When I went to Mobile, Alabama, I've experienced so much racism, it's not even funny. But everybody keeps on telling me that Montgomery is different... I reserved a spot for the Hyundai Tour. I mean,, the Korean's did give people from Alabama jobs!!!! Maybe, they won't pull a hate crime on me? I'm taking my knife with me.

Alabama is more hillbilly than Nashville. Good luck

We still have racists here in Dallas. People come in our store and if a black salesman asks them if they need help they either not respond at all or ask for someone different. So I would hate to see what "worse" is.

Youll have racism wherever you go. thats a sad but true fact. its how you deal with it though. dont go into a place assuming people will treat you bad. thatll only ruin your experience, expecting to be put down.

I'm INDIAN (the asian kind) and live in smalltown Wisconsin..not saying that people are noticably-different-towards-me racist like that salesman thing (which is just CRAZY btw!), but you do get treated differently. You can't really describe it, you just do, it's nothing which is stated or made obvious..it's just there.

I don't know about Alabama, but I doubt it'll be too bad mang.
