They never watched that twilight zone episode "The Brain Center at Whipple's" to the end. Not realizing that they will be replaced long before the last tech.
I've never read the book but when I was young the miniseries came out and I watched it. From that point forward I always doubted what my family said about black folk. Somehow they watched it and came out as racist and bigoted as ever. I rewatched it and caught shit for doing so. To ban it is to know it really happened and to want to hide the truth.
I'm going bald and still wont wear a hat unless I'm out in the sun. Been thinking of getting a fedora just to laugh at its current status among the simple minded.
I've been there so yeah the foods okay but I've worked at the Allen Fossil Plant and stayed on Elvis Presley Blvd. So my perspective of a great city is different from yours.
Edit: On a related note on my memories of Memphis. I've only witnessed one murder. Its was on a side street just a few blocks from Graceland in the late 90's.
I would just encourage 14 year old me to knock my dad out until he figured out I wasn't his beast of burden to yell and scream at. The last time he laid hands on me was 14. At the time I didn't realize I physically intimidated him.
Where in the south? I live in the south and nothing at a decent restaurant including the kids meals cost less than $15.00. The last meal I ate out I paid for four adults and it was $85.00 bucks without any tip. So I'm gonna have to disagree with you there.
