If I was black, with an autistic son, in a place like Tennessee, I would be moving my family to a deep blue city in a deep blue state ASAP rtfn.

I lived in Tennessee for less than a year with plans to stay permanently. Was discriminated against for having a name that didn't sound "white". People would apologize and become friendly once they saw me in person.

Got the fuck out of there asap.

Not everyone can be so lucky/privileged as to be able to move.

This, and especially when a member of the family is disabled.
