Yeah, I grew up playing iwth the black kids who lived on the farm behind ours. Never saw a difference until the 60s' when all the shit started. Nicest people you'd want to meet.

I was an acquaintance with Orval Faubus’s son Farrell before he OD’ed in 76.
Met Orval in 76 too, visited with him a quite a few times. Very smart man , very kind …a WW ll Vet. I could listen to him for hours.
Got a bad rap cause of LR Central in 57. He didn’t hate blacks at all , just basically followed orders. Didn’t trust many other politicians at all.
Local Blacks went to to their own elementary in town , then rode a bus 30 miles to a Black jr and HS. We still had “ blacks only “ or “whites only” signs. When integration came , that changed everything , they went all the way grades1-12 with us.
Our sports teams suddenly became really good.
Still see Blacks I graduated with every day….and their kids and grandkids.

I remember that well. In the little town I lived in there was at the park, a "Trade Lot', where every saturday all the country folk would pull their wagon or p/u truck full of produce, or farm stuff, to sell or trade. 4 bathrooms. Colored Men, Colored Women, White Men and White Women.

Thats hits too close to home.

Because you fell out before they got to the toilet?

Where about in SW Va did you grow up?

A little town called Altavista, really more south central. Family were 'red dirt baca farmers' My generation was the first to go to college.

If you think thats bad check out the Mexican amateur ones. No head gear, no vests, a lot of them get really fucked up.

One of my earliest memories, early 50's, is flying on the DC3. Just a little later I remember coming into National at night and she was so low I could see a guy sitting on his front porch reading the newspaper. What a plane. The film goes deep into the military side of her.
