7. As a Wisconsite living in a 'red' district, I can tell you that ....
... racism is alive and thriving in this corner of the Badger State. If in doubt, just read blog entries from jsonline.com for a few days. You'll understand.
I would disagree that most of the state is "virtually all white".
The presence of minorities is tangible throughout the state now, at least compared to 30 years ago. Large populations of Hmong live in LaCrosse, Eau Claire and other areas. Hispanics and blacks are now routinely seen most everywhere. This is a welcome change to some of us and a horror to others.
