I think Ronnie was refering to that that poor people weather white or black have no true backing from the government. The may offer a carrot once in a while for show. And that most upper class northern whites are just as racists as southern upper class whites. Only people that are truly poor can relate color be damned. In fact poor white people are treated with less respect in some way from their white brothers. George Walace realize the error of his ways and actually, he started out as reformer but went to segergation to win. After he was shot by a white man he ralized he had been wrong. Lynyrd Skynryd was force to use the conferate flag by MCA in hopes that it would bring in more money. Ronnie heros where Ali, Hendrix pretty similar to myself. He loved watching NFL football on sunday. Many of the band member played high Scool football together. He was a very good athlete All Star Baseball player and entered into a boxing tournament weeks before the crash. He was a uniquely regular guy that wrote some of best songs ever in 10 a year period. The Ballad of Curtis Lowe says it all for me as far as him being a racist that and loving Neil Youngs music. He used the fact that people would think they knew exactly what he was saying and loved to trick them! He was shot by his brother in the leg with a .22 rifle when he was 10 or so! That why the song Saturday Night Special he say's they aint no good drop them to the bottom of the sea. I had tickets for Kalamazoo Wing Stadium 0ct 25, 1977 5 days before the crash.
