Selfishly, the Delta. But I wouldn’t enjoy the segregation.

If you wanted to make this challenging, then you would have picked the Delta in 1927.  Not a good year to be in the Delta.

The Delta. Definitely the safest of the three options. I would probably get flack from other whites for being against segregation though.

you'd probably get more than flack, whites who defied segregation were targets of social ostracized at the minimum with any fraternization with an African american outside of social bonds leading to extreme violence against you and any unfortunate African American.

How would you do if you said “The Confederacy was built on Tyranny little different than the people that the Communists overthrew” and talked about their “founding fathers” were horrible people who committed treason while defending Reconstruction???

Your home burnt and run out of town by an angry mob, you might even be lynched(uncommon but not unheard of fate for whites perceived as N**** Lovers back then)

By the 1930s, weren’t most people in the Deep South over the whole Civil War? I can imagine of nothing else they were anti-slavery at that point.

Is this low-quality bait, or do the words "Lost Cause" mean nothing to you?

They romanticized slavery back then and implied it was a good thing.
