Prevalent than you know in the cities.
Hell. Look at Ferguson? St Louis area.

Also. The rural area is right outside the city and the haters are there. Not just rural southern either. North of I 70 in Marshall MO you will hear the n word in public still. Used as derogatory. By white males.
Hannibal MO. Same.

Something been brewin for many years now. If you aren't black and don't hang with blacks - you probably wouldn't know.
