I write about this in Body Phobia, but this was partly Billy Graham's fault. He insisted you could not legislate against racism because it was a heart issue that only God could resolve. This gave evangelicals a permission structure to go against the Civil Rights Movement.

(I am trying hard to atone for the sin of making hating Twilight my whole personality for like 5 years but this installment is unfortunately making it clear that I am in many ways still the thirteen-year-old who read the first book and was like "eh, that's enough of that")
