The excellent blog Orcinus has a new post on How to Out A Sundown Town. Clear instructions are given on how to research the secret history of your town. The historical fact is that if you're a middle-class white American living in the north or west of the country, the odds are overwhelmingly good that the town you live in, right now, is a sundown town -- or was one at some point in the not-so-distant past.Anyone have Olympia stories? I found one online and my own blog post about this generated a Shelton story also. |
