Thank you for writing this. It's really the little things that matter.
I've never lived in the South, but my parents have, and I've driven through it on a road trip. But when I tell people that I wouldn't feel safe telling people I was Jewish while driving through the South, sometimes they look at me and are like, "Really? Even today?" Yes, even today.
(PS, you might want to know, you wrote Jewish Sedan instead of Jewish Seder in the supermarket paragraph.)
