Interesting

I read about a book in our Des Moines Register Sunday newspaper called Sundown Towns. The book voices the reason there are so few African-Americans in Midwestern States. After the massacre of Native Americans by white soldiers with itchy trigger fingers at Wounded Knee in 1890, small town residents in Midwestern States enacted Sundown laws (no longer enforced but never repealed) clearly stating that anyone of "color" is forbidden to set foot in their "white-only" towns after sundown. Though I fail to see the connection between whites murdering Native Americans and chasing African-Americans out of town. That would likely be an interesting book to read. I found the book on Amazon.com, it was published last October. Post later. Bye!
