Re: [world_famous_recipes] Hillbilly Joke
Hi..
No need to apologize. I am sometimes sensitive. You wouldn't believe some
of the comments people have made to me when they find out I am from
Mississippi. I actually had someone ask if I had ever done my own houswork..And just how
many blacks ( only they didn't use that word) had worked for me..Did my
children have a "mammy" take care of them. (Shade of Gone with the Wind)
In fact, I've seen more racism here than I have in the last twenty years in
Mississippi. Now when I was a child things were different but things
change...I hope for the better.
Still I will say this..No one would think of posting a joke that in any way
slured Blacks or Jews ...This is my problem..Being a redneck or a hillbilly may
give you a certain perspective on life..It doesn't make you dumb.
I always enjoy your posts and I'm sorry if I over reacted.
Anne
