Reply #89: I remember the '50s well.

I lived in Miami then. I remember the segregation where blacks and whites had separate bathrooms and water fountains. When blacks had to sit at the back of the bus. They were not allowed in restaurants or movie theaters, only in ones in their own areas. I married in 1956 at the age of 16. My husband and I went to New Jersey. I was shocked to see interracial couples. I was flabbergasted to see blacks in white restaurants and movie theaters. I wasn't used to that having grown up in the South.
