Diversity and Racism in Mount Gilead, Ohio
two local expertsLeave a comment
Mt. Gilead, Ohio, has a mixture of country boys and city girls. The country boys love to go out hunting and riding dirtbikes. The city girls love to go down to Polaris Fashion Place and go shopping and get Chick-fil-a. It also has it vice versa. There are the city boys who love to go to Polaris Fashion Place and watch movies and meet new people and there are the country girls who are not afraid to get dirty. While the town is not very diverse, it has its own way of being unique.
Everybody knows everybody. Everyone is somehow related to someone in the town. A lot of the students at Mt. Gilead High School are cousins as well. The town has a diverse group of people personality wise, weird small businesses, odd monuments that do not serve much of a purpose besides being annoying to drive around, lots of places to get pizza, and everyone knowing everyone.
