    Hi Daz

    Yes it is startling to think that segregation was only fifty years ago. When I arrived in Baltimore as a seven-year-old in January 1955, the city was segregated and they had such things as white-only or colored-only water fountains and swimming pools. Also as with the Rosa Parks protest in Alabama in December 1955 against the need for colored people to sit at the back of the bus, that was the case here in Maryland, that the non-whites had to sit at the back.

    "Mississippi Burning"(Gene Hackman) depicted what went on in the mid 50's.
