I grew up in the burbs, a Levitt style development, one black kid in grades 1-8. That town still wants to keep it white. I left when I was 20 and came to live in Seattle. High school was much more integrated as Burlington City had a large black population.

All I can say is STOP watching TV news and opinion shows like fox and friends or the view. Use the internet to learn facts!!
