Back in the mid 70's in out town in Kentucky we had Cub Scouts, Webelos and boy Scouts but we did not have Brownies or Girl Scout Troops. My mother jumped through hoops to get a Brownie troop started so my sister could participate all was fine until the day some African American girls wanted to join and the other mothers of the troop said no way! My mother basicly to them to go to hell and she was not denying any little girl to join if they wanted to. It was a rough couple of months but my mother won out and after awhile it was like nothing ever happened (it did help that she had the type of husband that no one dared messed with).
