Racism in the North is different from that in the South. In the North, it's more apartheid-like, separate but equal. In the South, it's more like quarreling neighbors. Neighbors get on each other's nerves but everybody in the neighborhood is alike in their financial and social status.
Someone on here once posted that white northerners like black people as a group, but not individually, and white southerners like black people individually, but not as a group.

I think "in visually" was supposed to be individually.
If so corrected quote here….

I like the way whoever said it said it, and it may be very true. Thanks for posting it.

It's a quote by William Faulkner
'In the North they love the race and hate the individual... In the South we hate the race and love the individual.'
(That isn't verbatim but it's close)
Faulkner has lots of interesting quotes on race:
'To live anywhere in the world today and be against equality because of race or color is like living in Alaska and being against snow.'
'We were children, it is true, yet we were descendants of people who read books and who were, or should have been, beyond superstition and impervious to mindless fear.'
