    The baby boomers are a mixed bag, some have learned to change their perspective. The ~1920s - 1940s generation, not many left now, were often racist to the core and only believed that certain people of color were “one of the good ones.”

      Yup. My grandmother was born in 1922 and the amount of casually racist things she dropped was crazy.
