Ruby, thanks so much for sharing your southern perspective! Your family sounds as much like the typical southern family as any.

Loved your article, I’m from Georgia so we are close neighbors. I agree we are pretty much like everybody else. I have heard people say they found more prejudice in New York than in Atlanta. My family has lived in Georgia all my life and I have grandsons married to Hispanic girls and nephews and nieces married to African Americans. We pretty much take everyone for what they are not their color.I don’t know of any married cousins either. My family are mostly Southern Baptist but I practice no religion at all and my partner is Jewish.

To everyone who read with an open mind and heart, thank you kindly.

S D Moore, I’m afraid I didn’t list all of the wonderful legends that have sprung from the south, but thank you for remembering them.

Not to mention Zora Neale Hurston, William Faulkner, Tennessee Williams and Kate Chopin were from the South- of course, there are many brilliant people from this region.

I believe Southerners are exceptionally polite and down to earth people. There is an expat here working in my company and he is a Southerner and he is so nice to all of us. I don’t see any negative traits about him. So that’s a living proof. Keep those cool articles coming..
