It's not crazy that such blatant racism occurred in the late sixties, it's crazy that people pretend all the racists and the way they thought just suddenly disappeared. Lots of those people are still alive. My grandma and mom both grew up in a segregated south. Even as an elementary school kid, the way the civil rights movement was taught made it unbelievable that my mom was a kid watching MLK on TV.
it's probably not a coincidence that some of those people are voting in the oldest median age congress we have ever had.
