A few months ago my wife and I drove through Arkansas and saw a road side billboard for a white pride website and radio program (“Don’t be ashamed of your race”).

Hard pass no matter what the price.

This feels like a bait, since Pine Bluff is almost 80% black.

It also probably doesn’t help their case that the second photo that comes up on Apple Maps when you search the town is a billboard “Anti-Racist is Anti-White”

I believe you about the billboard, but man, that is the blurriest picture and I can't make out a single word on that sign.

It says "It's not racist to <3 people" and the website is WhitePrideRadio.com

I zoomed in because the wider shot has my wife in it. The web site is legible.

US 62, but I was going to guess Harrison, from the YouTube videos outside the local Walmart of people yelling at BLM protesters “Don’t our lives matter too?”

Not doubting that you saw a sign like that in the state, but what do racists in the Ozarks have to have to do with parent's business problems. Pretty bait-y.

Wow you’re really obtuse aren’t you. This is a comment more about the OP asking for prod/cons of small towns and me commenting on that. If you don’t have a problem with this kind of thing, by all means move there.
