People are likely to be in favor of segregation when they thrive on our being set aside and sent away. They are nursing home owners, institution operators, and middle managers in the helping industry. Some are women and men who earned advanced degrees in how best to keep Those People out of sight.
Some segregationists are family members who dump their moms or brothers or kids in institutions.
A number of charitable organizations which purport to represent our interests in fact sustain their treasuries with segregation. Some unions which represent these workers work to preserve segregation. Some segregationists are high-level state employees who simply don't know how to accept us as full human beings with human rights. But, for the most part, even our friends within the system keep their heads down. The most powerful of the segregationists are also the major contributors to political campaigns .
