Nothing in your post remotely relates to my life experiences here. Uncomfortable - about what?
Area that don't like strangers - where?
White boy in 'deep' Alabama - what the hell is 'deep'?!
Fellow progressives are all around me. Neighborhood, coffee shop - work. There's even a statewide trend, upwards trend - blue. And we will get there, sooner than we shake 'deep' south stereotypes and bigotry, which will take a little longer.
