@truthhitman7473 I don't think anyone was implying that. I have lived in the UK and the US. For decades, I have traveled abroad extensively for work, and I the worst racism I have witnessed is in rural areas of the Southeastern US, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Carolinas. It's no wonder the Southeast was central to the Equal Rights Act in the US. How a nation's government responded in the first 25-30 years after abolishing slavery, seems to have the biggest influence or predictor on later racism.

@truthhitman7473 Every society that had legalized slavery in its history, seems to have racially motivated bigotry. What made racism even worse in the US was "prisoner leasing" after the civil war.
