Mississippi

I've never really thought about how people live in Mississippi because I've never planned on living there. I know it's a southern state, so I figured it's similar to the rural areas in Georgia and most of Alabama. I believe that there is racism in every state throughout the United States, and emphasis is only put on the southern states and the racial events that occur there because everyone in America already steryotypes them anyway. I can understand that there are probably more rednecks and racists in Mississippi because its more rural and conservative. The videos just prove that in every region, there are people with different values and beliefs. I think that people may be influenced by the people they grow up around and the lessons instilled into them all their life, but it doesn't neccessarily mean that they won't be different.
