Looking at the Worst Towns in America: Sundown Towns | Prism of the Past

Sundown towns are STILL a thing in America. People of Color are still being harassed and discrimated against in such towns. We have sundown towns and neighborhood in and around Dayton. Oakwood, Brookville, Miamisburg, Carlisle, Kettering, Bellbrook, Union, Phillipsburg, Tipp City, Beavercreek, and Springboro. Let's not underestimate that most Trump supporters are from sundown towns all over America. We as people of Color need to be vigilant as are antiracist and progressive whites and others. May James Loewen rest in peace. Thanks, Dr. Loewen. Without your diligent work, this painful aspect of America would've been forgotten and victims of racism are being told that "it's in the past" and "don't make it about race."
Be sure to read his book before bigots, racists, and anti Critical Race Theory censors ban this book.
