They also have by far the highest percentage of black people. I always assume people who trash Mississippi have just a hint of racism

With Mississippi so low on pretty much every 'good' criteria, I'm not sure racism would be the reason.
Black people don't even have majority representation in the state legislature, so they aren't even running the state.
