I live in the south. I don’t hear the N word in decades used casually. I hear negative remarks on Jews every month. There are no anti black lockdowns or signs and chants like what was accepted on college campuses a few years ago. Black students participated.

Making a disparaging comment regarding blacks in a professional setting would be condemned by everyone I know. And result in termination. I’ve heard the same about Jews and Israelis numerous times. This is my sheltered life perspective.
