It is very diificult to be the only faces of diversity in a small community. I hope your family stayed intact and grew stronger. I am really sorry you were treated that way.

I finally had to drive 55 miles away to get a job and a month after I started working there my husband had to pick up my car for some repairs and brought my children with him. After they saw that my children were bi-racial I was treated very differently. I am sorry I should have clarified that no one would hire me in that area.

At that time I got remarried to a man that I met here in WV who was from East Texas, we moved to East Texas shortly after we were married. I only lasted there a year. I have never had a problem getting a job, I am an educated woman. In this small town my children and myself were treated like we were dirt under their feet. It was a terrible experience that I don't ever want to experience again. Not only were the White citizens of this town very racist towards us but the Black citizens treated us much in the same way.
