My mother told me in shame about our relatives in Dunn NC actually shoving black people off the sidewalk as they passed, that is only two generations back from me, so recent racism passed on psychologically, physically, cognitively.

My grandma’s family moved from TX to CA when she was 10, and she told me that not having to step into the street anymore was one of the most amazing things she experienced here. Until then she didn’t even know that there were places where black people didn’t have to do that.

Texas! Wow! Not the first state that many think of, when pondering the hostilities faced under Jim Crow. Just wow.

I’ve experienced white people expecting me to move on the sidewalk, it’s like they see through and passed me. I’ve yelled “excuse you” and they don’t budget. Now I stand still and them fall where they may.

As a kid, I saw my Arkansas born father move aside when a white man passed us on the street in St. Louis. It was a learned behavior, but it haunts me to this day.
