      Would you say there are any issues with racism? Is there a black population ?

    As a child visiting my Father and other family members I was in Paducah all throughout the 80’s. My grandparents lived on Mt Olivet Rd and the last place my Father lived was on Key Street. I remember walking around the mall. I remember going to a small video store renting movies. I remember going to a church that was close to or on Mt Olivet Rd. I remember seeing big containers with the 76 logo on them I think. My Grandfather was an embalmer at a funeral home there for a long time. My father was a drug and alcohol counselor. I haven’t been to Paducah since my Fathers funeral in 1994 but will go back again one day. I miss this place. I believe I have family here and from Murray going back generations. Thank you for your video
