Growin up in plantation south I noticed that when schools were closed and forced busing inconvenienced EVERYONE...we bitched, our parents called and some even protested But the thing that got me was the hard core blacks and the hard core hillbillies developed over a couple of years at least some what of a respect for the others code even if we considered ourselves enemies.  It was the in between mulatto's that ruled in numbers and were despised by both blacks and hillbillies.   We used to smoke good homegrown (was back then) on school grounds with the hard core niggas of our day and shake our heads at the multicultured majority that had no juice, no power, no honor even in their numbers.
