That sounds like Texas to me.
Racism in Louisiana isn't as rampant as it is in Mississippi or Alabama.
Mississippi is bad. Shreveport is a military town, so racism isn't a big
deal. Most people I know from there are professional enough not to let
personal biases intrude into work. Also, that part of the state is more
farming than in the Southern end, where I'm at, and most of the residents
are "several shades darker than pale."
I haven't heard of a blatantly racially motivate murder or attack from that
part of the state in years.
