[QUOTE="Snowden%20NLI:1373718"][QUOTE="Critical%20thinker:1373703"][QUOTE="Snowden%20NLI:1373631"]Plus pretty much every modern country besides maybe Japan and Iceland? Definitely including the U.S. though.[/QUOTE] Until the 1970s, there was close to zero mixing in the US and Europe, with a possible exception for very lower strata people in the US. Even today, it's not a major factor and as you can see, racial groups tend to segregate themselves: http://www.wired.com/design/2013/08/how-segregated-is-your-city-this-eye-opening-map-shows-you/[/QUOTE] Okay, you just don't understand any of what you're talking about. 1. the things you think of as "races" are generally the product of people from different areas wandering around and having kids with each other. This certainly does include the US and Europe, going back thousands of years. The decision to draw lines that separate them into "races" is a fairly arbitrary one that changes a lot depending on who's doing the drawing (and at what point in history). 2. the map you linked is based on census reporting, which is a very limited set of categories that have nothing to do with biology and often little to do with culture or ethnicity (for instance, it doesn't account for the fact that some people see Latino/not Latino as a separate category that overlaps with Black/White, whereas others see them as three mutally exclusive options i.e. Black/White/Latino). 3. if you are, in fact talking about the kind of demographic mixing that the map you linked shows there isn't a lot of, here's the thing: [i]once you control for income and other factors[/i], racially and ethnically mixed neighborhoods tend to be better (in terms of health, education, safety, etc.) than segregated ones.[/QUOTE]
