Comments

An Indiana resident writes, %u201CI recall as a child, hearing, or maybe seeing, a black family moving into the Deputy IN area, and promptly moving out. And again, I don’t believe I ever saw any black families there then, or even today. We moved there in 1961, so it was around then that I heard… They left because they were told to, or told it wasn’t healthy for them to be living there I think.%u201D
