Dearborn, an almost all white suburb of Detroit, is just 4% Black.
I thought Dearborn had about 100 percent Islam folks. I swear you would think so if you heard from the media.
Dearborn is 41.7% of Arab descent, but they count as “white” in our Census.
Christians and muslims often get lumped in together under the arab label but Chaldean Christians are actually the single largest group of arabs in Michigan.
naps,
You may be 100% right about that!
I got my data from the Census Bureau.
BUT.....
The Census Bureau counts many North Africans, most Turks, and most Middle Easterners as Caucasian.
I know that Detroit is (or used to be) home to the largest group of Palestinian immigrants in the world.
By the way.....
The Census Bureau and the FBI keep two sets of books on Hispanics, too.
They include Hispanics and whites in the same group when it makes whites look bad, like “white” murderers, or when American “white” health statistics are compared to European “white” statistics.
But, Hispanics become “Hispanic” when they are crime victims, or when voter districts are drawn up, or when Affirmative Action job hiring is an issue.
