Was Andy racist?


Like what would he do if a black feller strolled into Mayberry?
Just asking.

He would ask him if he wanted a bottle of pop.



Never make friends with the devil brother, his pitchfork will get you in the end.

You ever actually watched this show?
What nonsense popped into your head to give you any indication that Andy Taylor would be rude, mistreat or demean a man of another race or any other individual?

reply

nothing to him, particulary.... but just the fact of the time period, and being in the south, and soforth. Had there ever been a black guy on the show?

According to his character development over the course of the entire series, they would have been afforded the same welcome as anyone else on TAGS. I imagine this was a question to "trigger" someone into a reaction that could then be called racist. Doesn't look like it worked. Kiddos to the board!
