It's summertime, school is done for a couple of months and I'm getting the itch to travel to a few new places while I can. Considering I've never been to the South for business (and only a couple of times for personal matters), I figured why not venture below the Mason-Dixon line to round out my summer tour season. The only issue is that I'm not at all aware of what the racial tension climate is like.
I know that in my home market (NJ/NY), I and other black girls consistently do well in certain areas while we fight to break even in others. As much as I'd like to attribute that fact to sheer coincidence, I'm not naive enough to believe that race has nothing to do with my success (or lack thereof) in particular areas. I was looking to potentially visit cities in Louisiana all the way to Texas, and while I'm sure the situation differs from city to city, I was hoping to get a general consensus from providers and hobbyists alike as to what possible issues I may run into (if any) when trying to work in these areas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
