I lived next door to Dorchester in Roxbury. Half the kids were White and Jewish and the other half Black. I never heard a racist or anti-Semitic word. Maybe it was because there weren't any TVs around. Great place to live with Franklin Park and zoo across the street. We moved to a small town when I was 12 and did I ever get an education. Let's be nice and say it was because it was a small town and had nothing to do with most the people being Catholic.
