I have had and do have black neighbors 

now you say *** neighbors 

that’s a different kettle of catfish

not sure why you refuse to believe that I don’t give a damn if black folks move into my neighborhood 

I have a good guess

And I do know that prejudice is bad 

In the fifties and sixties we lived in an all white neighborhood 

​​​​​​ black folks started moving in, and white folks lost their **** mind

I’m sure that you heard of “white flight”

my dad was proud of his home, so we stayed 

I was one of 3 or so white people in my class through 8th grade

all of my friends were black 

in high school I sat in the black section of the cafeteria because that’s where most of my friends were

Now most of my friends are white ( not all ) because I move out of state and the divide was in place

and before you ask me why I didn’t move into a black neighborhood 

for the same reason I didn’t move into a trailer park 

I don’t know any of those ***

point being…  believe it or not

Black people don’t bother me as much as they do you

I blame my dad for that
