Brutal, inhuman lynchings (Henry Smith), sundown towns (Vidor), James Byrd dragged behind a truck, James Byrd's grave desecrated; they had to put a fence around it to stop the vandalism...oh, and the Governor has a ranch called Niggerhead.
That one state has as much racist history as entire regions of the country.
But I guess Austin negates all that.
