That is true, right up to 1964. That's when everything changed. The South was heavily Democrat, but switched to Republican after Johnson passed the CRA. So most of the racists migrated, and continue to this day, to the GOP.
That is not to say that most Republicans are racist. But most of the remaining racists (thankfully fewer over time) are Republicans.Since 1964 Dems have been the champions of civil rights and equality, even if imperfectly

Do you think there's a social-media active right winger who has not read that explanation numerous times, and ignored or dismissed it numerous times?
