Small town racism is alive and well

But as far as me being against blacks, no I’m not.”

Fake news media trying to make her seem racist when she is not against blacks.  

Just having different views doesn't make you "racist." lol

No mention of her party.

At local levels like this party is less relevant, so it isn't always reported the way it is at State and Federal levels. At least that is my general understanding.

Even searching for it now, there is not really any mention of her party anywhere I look.

The fact that she cites God as her reasoning for opposing interracial marriage makes me believe she is likely a Republican but, hey, we can't know for sure, right?


I do think this is just more proof that you can't really self report on your level of racism.

The words "I'm not a racist" mean literally nothing. It's about actions and how those actions affect and/or are perceived by others, especially those you are speaking/acting for or against.

In this lady's warped mind, being against interracial marriage and wanting to keep her community white isn't racist. It's just maintaining the natural order of things. For her, races should not be commingled and that isn't racism, it's just fact. 

Or at least that is what it appears to be, based on her words. I can't say for certain that she's a racist. But she sure sounds like one.
