    I grew up in Harrisburg and everybody called the west shore of the Susquehanna the “White Shore.” Harrisburg is a perfect example of redlining and the racist interstate highway system, but it’s a lot more diverse than the west shore. Moving away from the river you find quietly racist blue collar people, quietly racist white collar people, and then just plain racists.
