I really want to make a joke and say “well it probably won’t be DAILY” but don’t want to play up your fears.

You will probably raise more eyebrows than most other parts of the state but the most conservative parts of CT are more tolerant than the most liberal areas in many other parts of the country. And if there’s one thing New Englanders are good at, it’s keeping their mouths shut when they disapprove of something.

You’re not likely to encounter overt racism, but maybe the subtle “I’m not sure we should take him for a play date over there” type from time to time.

I do wish I could confidently tell you racism is dead.
