I’m not in the US.
I just read about “Racial segregation in the United States” on Wikipedia. Does signs like these still remain in places today?
I’m not from the US. I knew about Apartheid in Africa and I knew about the Triangular trade. I know that being a POC in the US comes with problems, for lack of a better description, compared to being a white male. I did not know that black people were seperated by law until around 1968 (according to Wikipedia, that is when segregation was outlawed in full, as of Civil Rights Act of 1964, Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Fair Housing Act of 1968 (but not in de facto, because people)).
As to my original question, I consider recent around the last five, perhaps ten years. I would imaging this picture being taken around 1970, before something like this (hopefully) would have been removed.
EDIT: I should add that I also knew about black people and white people not mixing back then, but not that it was also by law.
EDIT 2: Now that I think about it, this is depicted in Umbrella Academy.
What is the context behind this image? This cannot be recent, can it?

Games@lemmy.world•Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or faceEnglish
8·14 days agoIt also includes other functions that is not NSFW. Nothing that I personally care about but might be a deal breaker for bigger communities.
Discord breaks down the restrictions as follows:
- Content Filters: Discord users will need to be age-assured as adults in order to unblur sensitive content or turn off the setting.
- Age-gated Spaces: – Only users who are age-assured as adults will be able to access age-restricted channels, servers, and app commands.
- Message Request Inbox: Direct messages from people a user may not know are routed to a separate inbox by default, and access to modify this setting is limited to age-assured adult users.
- Friend Request Alerts: People will receive warning prompts for friend requests from users they may not know.
- Stage Restrictions: Only age-assured adults may speak on stage in servers.
