It's a coincidence by definition. Whether or not the two are linked is another matter, and someone has probably done research on it.

The idiomatic phrase "it's no coincidence" means "it's more than just a coincidence."

I know. I'm saying you should offer more than a one-line assertion.

People were really racist in the 1960's, to the point where they wanted blacks to not use the same restrooms. They didn't suddenly stop being racist when cities were legally desegregated. What happened consequently was what you would expect if a bunch of racists were stuck in cities with a bunch of black people who were no longer confined to their separate areas.

I know the popular assertions. Was hoping you had some actual research.
