Forsyth county in general. Same town where lake Lanier is I shared my story on it in spaces one time. It’s still one!

Wow that explains a lot. I got racist vibes when I tried to go in Lake Lanier.

I live very close to one, very close. This metal barrier which is still up today was used to divide the sundown town Brentwood from the Black American North Brentwood MD. There’s also a slave plantation 5 mins from me.

Minden - Gardnerville, NV - A place that as of 2021 was still sounding a siren at 630pm, over a century later. Side note: Trump always has his rallies there versus Las Vegas, I wonder why that is🙃 FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW

Bordentown, NJ wild stuff man

America is a “sundown” country; Racism is woven into its DNA. The sooner more people realize this the wiser & more prepared a lot of folks will be.

The sundown town closest to Chicago was Cicero, but fooling around in southern Illinois at night is not safe for Black folks to this day.

Racism isn’t simply a Southern or republican phenomenon, it’s both parties, the ENTIRE country. Unlike what black democrats and white liberals want us to believe

sundown series.

I live in Texas Just about every small town is one!

Forsyth County 😵💫 & Carrolton County gives me them vibes a little bit too…

You have plenty sundown towns in California.

Hawaiian Gardens just East of Long Beach may not be on the Sunset list, it should be. I lived there for a year, it is very racist and hostile toward Blacks. It is mainly inhabited by Latinos just so ya know.

In NY they probably have them Up State but I never go up there. We don't play that shit in the 5 boroughs of NY.

Indiana and Illinois had plenty southern Indiana there’s a few still

So not to be rude but the point here is to CALL OUT the towns, so can we be big little girls and boys and follow directions? The whole of Putnam County Georgia is a sundown town but Eatonton GA, you know how you act!

Torrance. CA and anywhere in Orange County, CA. Yea, here too 🤷🏽♀️

They’re not in every state. The last one that I know of was Cullman, AL. They stopped that years ago though. I remember driving to Ryan’s and right at the town limits was a sign that read, N don’t let the sun set on you. That was early 2000’s 🤷🏽♂️

Vidor, Tx for sure. They had large and active KKK involvement and a few years ago tried to change their image but NO THANKS.

I’m in Missouri. A red state so sundown towns are plenty full.

Never heard of Anna being from Illinois. We need to just pull up in these towns

My hometown Bastrop TX is a sundown town -- before the Civil Rights movement each Christmas why folks would kidnap an ADOS to hang

@OlTopDolla Grand Isle and Jean Lafitte in Louisiana believe it or not

ion believe all of em but wouldn’t want to find out….

Well here in good ole liberal So. California there is Glendale, Burbank, Signal Hill that I know of for sure.

Man named James W. Loewen wrote a book about Sundown Towns. There's a database of said towns still online, here's the link:

I’m fro Kentucky I googled sundown town and where I live used to be one

Don't live there but MATHEWS VIRGINIA!!!🙅🏾♀️🙅🏾♀️🙅🏾♀️ Legit was told by yt people in town "You best make sure your gone before the sunsets or stay inside the place your staying till sun up and don't come outside for anything!". 🥴🥴🥴 The way the few other POC were looking at me like

Clovis California

California: Clovis, Sanger, Kingsburg, Selma, Reedley, Visalia, Tulare, Exeter, Handford, Woodlake, Farmersville, Porterville, Strathmore, Terra Bella, Oildale…shit I’m tired of typing🤣🤣🤣🤣 It’s a lot…like 80% of the state

Paradise California it was alleged. But they burned down in 2018 I think it was

Harrison, Arkansas to name one!

Tybee Island so I appreciate when Orange Crush comes around and the locals get pissed.

Here in GA, it is known that Dawson and Forsyth Counties are sundown towns.

How long have you been in each country?
