Title
Josephine Fleming's son Steve talks about cross racial interactions at private clubs, often called "Nip Joints"
Description
Steve Fleming talks about how the Jim Crow laws governing public interactions were not always held to in private. Whites in the lower part of the county often socialized with African American men and women at so called Nip Joints. Everyone had a great time, but it was all done in private. He shares that if the same people saw each other the next day on the street, they would respect the racial boundaries of the time.
