America was about 73% white in 2017 and not projected to be 50% white until 2045.

about seeing poc (they use the N word) in commercials and TV shows now. I heard one a while back say
he couldn't watch the Today show because he couldn't stand that "N" Al Roker. I'm serious that is
the language you hear in eastern Ohio.

they talk to him like they are buddies. Sometimes I want to ask they guy right in front of them if he knows what they say
behind his back. I swear this area of eastern Ohio, WV and western PA has to be they most racist part of the country. I have traveled
to 40 stales and haven't heard any worse.
