Yeah, no blacks allowed where we lived. My mom and I were crazy about the baseball Cardinals team. One of the more popular players, Curt Flood, tried to buy a house down the street from us. But at the office he was told "nothing for sale." The same thing happened to a Chinese scientist, Dr. M.S. Wang, that my father sponsored to come here to be a citizen with his family, and work at Monsanto. My father was outraged when he took Dr. Wang to the office and they were told nothing was available. He told them that he knew there was, but Dr. Wang didn't want to cause a commotion, so they went elsewhere.
