I’d say this about the entire South. After he signed the Civil Rights Act LBJ said “We just lost the South for a generation.” But he didn’t say for 40 years! Dems should never have abandoned the South. There are amazing progressives everywhere in this country; they need support!!

Before y’all dump on Alabama, remember these folks live here, too. And they are fighting to make it better.

I heard you on Andrew Yang’s podcast. I was impressed with your deep knowledge of history, political parties and actual policy.

The South I grew up in, and still know, is way behind in its moral development. Culture change takes time, and often great suffering. But maybe now the tide can shift. I would love to see that!!!

Thank you for bringing up that it was black people who enacted the civil rights and not LBJ himself.

Yes, as Rev. Barber says, those aren’t red states, they’re voter suppression states. It looks like our Southern countrymen are breaking through the suppression at last 🇺🇸✊🇺🇸

The south is filled with Democrats and they fled because they didn’t want to be killed, but I agree
