I'm listening to and audiobook (through Hoopla) that you would probably enjoy. It gives an explanation about racism in the U.S. The title is Caste by Isabel Wilkerson. A very worthy read (or listen).

Thank you for the suggestion! It sounds interesting. I will definitely look that up! I think the reason I was so shocked at the agrevious racism; (white streets only!) was that it was in the 1960's and there were laws at that time that prevented companies and governments to openly deny people of color employment and access to local things such as the streets! Also, people were getting to know others who didn't look like them because of these laws and as a result, discovered we all had a lot in common such as raising children and just trying to pay the bills.
