For example, the Brotherhood March in Forsyth County, GA.

Bloomberg:

March 18 [, 2011] (Bloomberg) -- Alanda Waller admits she had some explaining to do three years ago when telling friends she moved her black family to a Georgia suburb once known as the picture of Southern racism.
Twenty-four years ago, Forsyth County introduced itself to the world as Ku Klux Klan-led protesters hurled rocks and racial epithets during a civil rights march, just after the Martin Luther King Jr. federal holiday. The New York Times headlined the clash and Oprah Winfrey came to town to tape an episode on race relations.

[...]

The “Brotherhood March” through Forsyth [in January 1987] was organized by Atlanta City Councilman Hosea Williams, who was with Martin Luther King Jr. when the civil rights leader was assassinated in 1968. Williams led dozens of black and white activists to Cumming, the county seat, to recognize the King holiday.

Counter-demonstrators threw rocks and beer bottles, turning back the group. Williams returned a week later with 20,000 marchers carrying signs saying “Ain’t Gonna Let Nobody Turn Us Around.” Jeering opponents waved Confederate flags. Police arrested sixty people and this time, the marchers reached Cumming.

The controversy drew television talk show host Oprah Winfrey to Forsyth to film a town hall meeting on race relations. One man in the audience used racial slurs and said he feared blacks coming to the county.

In the years since, Forsyth’s old guard has been diluted by tens of thousands of newcomers who may not know the county’s racial history, said Charles Bullock, a political scientist at the University of Georgia in Athens. Still others have died off, he said.

A picture from the counter-demonstration on January 17, 1987:

Pointy white hats, also too, with lots of people not keeping their distance from them...

WABE has a 5:17 audio interview on Forsyth's history.

Cheers,
Scott.

Post #403,109 by Another Scott 6/29/15 9:02:13 PM Reply	What, 2.8% or so? "Heavily"? Wikipedia. The analogy would be better if Mexico colonized Forsyth County and kept non-Mexicans as slaves. But... Cheers, Scott.

Post #403,115 by Another Scott 6/29/15 9:42:29 PM Reply	Things are changing there, but the county is still very white. http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/13/13117.html: 9.6% Hispanic 3.3% Black The trend is good. When I left Georgia (mid '70s) there were literally almost no blacks in the county. There were occasional stories in the news about a black family trying to move there, and the troubles they faced. There's about 6400 now (out of ~ 200,000 people total). I still don't see how the Mexican flag applies to the topic though. ;-) Cheers, Scott.
