I didn’t know your preacher was black. How cool!

I generally have good experiences with people because I’m amiable and easy that way, but yes…I was constantly amazed at the thinly-veiled animosity (or just outright distrust) I got from some blacks in Alabama.

I had some good experiences there, too, of course. It’s just that the negative ones were so overpowering that they were impossible to dismiss–and my experiences in Alabama are such a stark contrast to my experiences in Louisiana.

We have generally had good relations with all people everywhere we go, but especially good in Alabama, virtually everywhere we have eaten. Had a lot of fun with some ladies seated next to us in Monroe, La. once, and have enjoyed many black people in that city. Met a new friend just a couple of weeks ago in Montgomery Alabama as well. Had a nice, long cnversation with her, and thouroughly enjoyed her. But, as you know, we worked with blacks here in Nacogdoches, as well, an d learned that they are people as well. Our preacher is black, as well, and well loved wherever he goes. </p> <p>This is not to say I haven&#8217;t had a few bad experiences. I have. But they are few, a;nd very far between. You may have just run into some racial hotspots along the way., I certainly hope that is all it is. I did, a couple of times, run into a modified situation like you describe. Hope this sort of thing doesn&#8217;t continue.</p> Hi Daughter!
