At most, the ironically named Star Moron live love laugh described blacks' lives at some times in some parts of the US.
The reality in which I grew up was rather different. Born when Eisenhower was present, the small rural California Central Valley town near my home was not segregated - not businesses, not housing, not schools, not churches. My parents were born in the Wilson Administration and also grew up in or near that same town, and it was not segregated then. It may never have been, but because my grandparents came from elsewhere I can't go back another generation wrt that town.
ETA: I should add that the church in which my Dad grew up had zero black, Hispanic, or Asian members when he was growing up. That services were in German and during fellowship times German was most commonly or universally spoken probably had something to do with that.
