Racism has been just as big or bigger a problem in other parts of America AND Canada.

=====

Slavery was abolished last in the South, but that doesn't mean racial animus is a "Southern" thing. Where have the most "race" riots happened? 

Where else, but the Northern latitudes.

Reconstruction after the Civil War does seem to be a hot spot for the South, 
but look at the other places.

There are an overwhelming number of "racial incidences" in the North, as
opposed to the South. How can that be? California and South of Orlando 
SHOULD be counted as North. There aren't too many crackers left down and out there, respectively.

Remember the asterisks, mean NORTHERN latitudes.
