My parents (born in the 1920s) got into trouble while serving in Kenya in the early 1950s, for having a conversation with the black barman in the colonial club. They stood their ground.
It’s nonsense to say that good people weren’t opposing racism in the middle of last century, and before. If you’re an old racist in modern times, you just ignored the change going on around you when you were young. Don’t expect much sympathy from the rest of us!
