kind of surprised a Tenn fan is making a comment like this given Knoxville doesn't have many black people for a city its size.

outside of urban core of knoxville, it is very white in the Knoxville metro.

Seneca, the largest city in Oconee County, is 27.7 percent black.

Did you mean West Memphis? Technically that is in AR but white is the minority there.

Yeah, most of those upper midwest states are pretty monochrome. When it snows the residents become invisible. What is the Native American and Asian American population like up there?

I don't know about those areas, but Denmark, SC is the Blackest place I've ever been. If there are any White, Hispanic, or Asian people there they stay well hidden.

How the hell are you familiar with Denmark?!

And I beg to differ. The aptly named Blackville, SC holds that honor.

Been through there a few times and NEVER seen a person on the street or in a store that was not Black.

Oh there's truth to your statement, it just surprised the hell out of me that anyone outside of that area would know or be familiar with Denmark.

I'm originally from Barnwell so I am very familiar with it. About 14 miles from my hometown.

Allendale is more "Prominent " than Denmark, imo

I used to work at Allendale County Hospital occasionally.

Multiple DFOs came thru that emergency room. And the only person I have ever wanted to actually kill. Bitch was in a car full of drunks in the front passenger's seat, holding her 7 month old son in her lap. They hit another car head on and the baby went thru the windshield.

He was the first baby I'd had to perform CPR on after my own 7 month old died and I just remember seeing my own tears falling on that baby boy as I was doing CPR.

The baby was pronounced not long after he arrived and we went to tell drunk mama, who wasn't hurt, that her baby had died.

Her response? "I didn't want that bastard anyway."

They had to hold me back bc I went after her. I ended up finding the only place I could be alone...a janitor's closet..and bawled my eyes out bc I'm certain that baby never knew what it was like to be loved.

Jesus that is tough to read, I can't imagine working in a place where I'd have to see things like that. The worst thing I have to see is people screwing other people out of a bunch of money or telling someone they lost a ton of money investing in a horrible project.
