I was raised in Texas and we moved to detroit in the sixties. We only stayed a couple of years. I was in the third grade and was constantly being beat up on by the black kids. They would gang up on me and push me to the ground, then they would all take turns hitting and kicking me. Soon I was sent to the school counselors office. The counselor asked me way those kids wanted to beat me up. My answer, “cause I’m from Texas.”

Now I know is was probably because I was a little red headed, blue eyed girl from Texas. They was just mad. And many are still mad today because they are never allowed to forget and move on like many many before them had to do.
