Everyday we here how there is still segregation within our cities. Majority of people would rather live around people who share their same ethnicity for various reasons and can be understandable. However, to see it on a map was insane to me. I never realized how segregated we are in this country. Majority of minorities live in cities while Whites live in suburban areas. I just hope one day we can all just mix together and treat one another how we want to be treated.

Implicit Bias and its implications on society as a whole (Tasnim M.)

Implicit Bias and its implications on society as a whole (Tasnim M.)

# data[].attributes.body
People will denounce racism wholeheartedly, but we need to look at what kind of racism lives inside of us. This implicit bias is most common, and still hurtful to people of color. Sometimes, it's why they don't get certain jobs, why they won't be trusted, why certain people won't be friends with them. It's all in that initial glance and initial judgment that we don't look deeper into. By knowing this, we can take way any blame towards the Black community for their status in society, because it's our fault for making it so hard to rise up. I believe that when we confront this individually and in our families, we can overcome racism in a fundamental way.

# data[].attributes.body
This is casual racism. It's harder for people to denounce and for people of color to confront to the perpetrator because it's done in such a hidden way and very casually. It may not even cause the perpetrator to blink, but it affects people of color in a very deep way because of its ambiguity and difficulty to stop. Spreading this information is important, I've even seen guides and comics to address micro aggressions and I believe it's very helpful. Micro aggressions are still aggressive and still racist, and they need to be confronted as such. I honestly feel angry and disappointed that we still have to face people's ignorance everyday from the big stuff to the small stuff. How exhausting this must be to combat and endure?

It is very upsetting to think that blacks were being targeted without an escape. The criminal justice system was corrupt, and practically allowed for the act of lynching to take place. In the case of Thomas Miles, the police led him to his death by releasing him through the back door knowing that there was a mob waiting for him. Looking at the interactive map, there is a horrific number of lynchings that have taken place mostly in the south. The history for black Americans is devastating, and their family trees suffer as a result.

We want so badly to believe that the world is becoming a better place, and that racial discrimination is depreciating. However, the truth is that although we have changed significantly, there is still an upsetting amount of racism taking place in society. We can see it in our poverty rates, our incomes, our opportunities, our communities, our education systems, and our criminal justice system. Basically, looking at these charts shows that there is still racism going all in all aspects of society.

I think that racial categories changed a lot by the years. The reason why is because they gave people names for the color of their skin and their background history. Such as African American, Asians, and white Americans.

# data[].attributes.body
I think in today society, will kind of live in a segregation society. The reason is that I know some people would like to live where they feel welcome. They feel welcome with people that look like that and have the same background as them.

The census changes over time seem to reflect a trend. The first thing I noticed is that as time progresses, the census includes more and more options for determining which race you belong too. I also noticed that the phrasing over time changes quite drastically and becomes increasingly more "thoughtful". The further along you go, the more you can see census creators being aware of how the terms they use may affect the emotions of participants.

To me, these Censuses depict who the government considers an important factor and how they view these factors. When there was slavery, the census stated slave, because that was the only number they cared about. It did not matter where the slaves came from. Through time, this changed and it became an importance to actually know the ethnic background, because there were so many different races entering the united states. in the early 1800's almost the whole population was either white, or a slave of African decent. Moving forward, as ethnic minority groups grew and required a different census.

I think Segregation is a horrible name for this map. I do not believe this displays segregation but it does show how racial groups tend to stay together. This has to do with culture I could presume. For example, as a white male, it would be tough to move to a prominently Asian area because I would be surrounded by Asian culture I am not used to. Personally, I would feel different because I enjoy aspects of every culture, but it would be tough for some people to leave the comfort of their own cultural area. I think more and more you see this trend diminishing as the years go by.

It's hard to believe that redlining was used against African Americans, as well as other minorities. I also can't believe that people involved in the housing market felt that minorities living in said neighborhoods would bring the quality of them down. If anything, this placed minorities in unsafe positions since they were forced to live in unsafe neighborhoods instead.

It's seriously hard to believe that lynching had any sort of place in American history. It was such a despicable act, and even though lynchings ultimately ended nearly half a century ago, they should have never happened in the first place. The fact that there were 4,000 victims to lynching is also extremely sickening.

My data suggest a slight automatic preference for European Americans over African Americans. This did not shock me because I truly believe it is normal to have a slight automatic preference on either end. What would have shocked me was a larger preference. I am pretty open to everyone and only have issues with people when it comes to my safety. But, regarding this, I would say a white man who is following me by observation would truly freak me out just as much as a black man following me. I am equally afraid of all people who make me feel unsafe. When it comes to everyday life I could see how I have a slight automatic preference, because to be completely honest I am around more white people in my life than black people. I have no issues or anything against black people and have had very close black friends in the past and present, but the people in my life closest to me just happen to be white, which to me would make sense why I have an automatic preference. I think this test was very fair and made me think a lot as well.

I think racial segregation is a thing for sure. I believe that this map proves it is a thing. But, I think there can be a few reasons regarding this to happen. I believe 1. that people within the same culture tend to be around each other more, 2. things like low income housing ends up keeping certain groups of people together, and 3. historically, some groups of people like to say Irish or Asian all used to stay in a certain part of a neighborhood in big cities, and it has just stayed that way over time.

Racial Segregation that won't go away for a long time. I think a lot of people can agree with these due to the fact that this whole racial problem has gone for a long time and there hasn't been any change! Going back to the map, this goes to show its all about how we stick together. By we, I mean us the people, either of color or hispanic. I know sometimes moving into a different neighborhood can be tough because some people are forced in way and its hard because many will think "im no comfortable" and what causes this might be how others treat outsiders.

Today, we see alot of racism in the media due to direct discrimination from peers! It has become so convenient to discriminate against someone via app, text or movie! Having such a large scale of media and access to millions at the tip of your fingers you find it more acceptable to be racist. In Hollywood, for example, you have all of these wonderful blended community of LEAD actresses and actors yet you chose to nominate majority of Caucasian actors/actresses. Why? “We as the people” elected a president that is OPENLY racist in the media, provoking injustice yet noone  has put a stop to it!

Lynching ended publicly in the 1950’s but it NEVER ended! Once the media started to believe that the injustice that was happening upon minorities (African Americans) was wrong and decided to withdrawal PUBLICLY supporting this, it went underground. There have been cases since, and in 2018 of lynching going on in America. Why? Why it is STILL being accepted to “lynch” somebody? Who are you to have that power? It’s sad what’s going on in America and then to know it’s resources out here to end it, YET aren’t being used. It makes me question what the world we live in is really like? It’s so many unanswered questions, hidden secrets it’s flabbergasting.

Its saddening to really see how much public lynching was a norm and didn't even end until the 50's! Which isn't even that far long ago. Seeing the map and the saturation of lynching in the south was remarkable.

These 15 charts were real eye openers. From blacks being unable to receive equal wages to their white colleagues or counterparts, to not being able to receive good mortgage loans like white people, even as young as pre-school black children being punished more frequently and harder than white. These charts go on and on and how prevalent racism, segregation, and prejudice and discrimination are still present today.

I chose this assignment because I feel that it is important to understand and acknowledge our inherent biases in order to help negate them. This is especially important from a sociologist perspective as it is important to understand the various "lenses" that different researchers and groups might view the same information and data with. After seeing the results, I don't think that it's necessarily a negative thing to have an inherent bias towards ones own race, as that makes sense when considering the mental development of a child and the tendency to form a positive association with things they find relatable. As far as appearance goes, skin tone is one of the largest and most obvious identifiers. As long as we acknowledge and understand the reasons for these biases, it is easy to not let them affect one's judgement of individuals based on group generalizations.

I was surprised at the outcome of my data as a slight preference for European Americans over African Americans, as I grew up in an African American household. Taking the test my response was slowed for my choosing good traits for African Americans. I believe this could be a manifestation of the medias unconscious impression on me, but either way it was a good insight on how I can identify and repair these biases within myself.

Reviewing the segregation map of New York City was surprising because all of stereotypes you hear about what kinds of people live in what boroughs was confirmed on a present day map. I have lived in New York and was shocked to see the concentration at which black people are segregated into inland Brooklyn and Jamaica, Queens. It also surprised me how diverse the white population is in New York and how gentrification will only decrease the sizes of areas black New Yorkers have been segregated into and how this will effect with rich diversity of New York City.

Gavin Ray:

"I think this topic is bogus to be completely honest. I'm not arguing that the empirical data is false. My problem comes with the idea that the people in these lower-income areas are simply "helpless". There is no such law that says a black person can not attend a white person school, nor vice versa. There is also no such law that prohibits black people from living in the same areas as white people. The answer to educational and then consequentially financial freedom, is through personal enlightenment. If people are not learning enough in school, they can spend their time outside of the classroom to continue educating themselves, become a competitor in the job-field and move them and their kin into a better area which DOES provide the exact same opportunity as the higher-income areas. This all comes down to a matter of how bad somebody wants to succeed and how far they're willing to go to achieve success. I think lower income areas are more a slave to their unwillingness to try and entitlement mindset than they are "the system"."

Note: please be Aware that i personally find this this to be an unacceptable post.

Schools are usually questioned about minority progression. what are the reasons that minorities do not perform well as other cultures?Some people believe that  desegregating the schools would fix the problem of underachieving low income students. Well, segregated or desegregated minorities still are
slowly progressing. So, just How can a generation of lower class minorities get ahead without an equal education? I think more focus should be place on students' home environment and less on school. Students with a home environment that closely reflects their school  would perhaps make better progress. On the other hand, it is hard to dictate someone's household.  As for the article that says blacks and other minorities that attend school with first year instructor, this could put a bias on these instructors. We all have to start somewhere for the first time.
The issue in the article addresses suspension among minorities. Well, there should be firm a communication between home and school to correct behavior. As for other non-minority groups, if the same behavior exist the punishment should be equal.

The 15 charts data express the many aspects of life that African Americans are treated differently than non-minority groups. It a sign that time has change some for racial inequality, but more work is needed. I do not think racism could be completely wiped from the world. It will take some time for everyone to understand what it is like to walk in someone else's shoes.

One chart explains that blacks get arrested for possession of drugs and a non-minority buyer does not. The reason this may occur is how authority ha been socialized against minority. This socialization will take time to unteach.
