America is known as the Great Melting Pot.

But a closer look at census data shows we're a lot closer to a dinner plate with the peas here, carrots here, potatoes here, and steak over there. In other words, a very high level of racial segregation.

This cool series of maps was produced by Eric Fischer, based on a map of Chicago from Bill Rankin's Radical Cartography.

Red represents white people, blue is black, green is Asian, and orange is Hispanic, and each dot is 25 people.

Everyone seeks a society of people who think and act somewhat like themselves.

Well if it's good enough for the NAACP, then it's good enough for me.

I’d like to see how they match up with maps of high crime areas.

The radical left rules our cities, and the radical left exists to drive wedges between people. If all the minorities, special interest groups, social classes were to become one people called Americans, they might get to thinking in terms of the best interests of America, and that would be the end of the radical left.

What about people from India & Pakistan ? Aren't there a lot of them ? Don't they count ?

Or maybe, they're politically diverse and don't vote as a "block" ?

And why not use pink for whites, black for blacks, yellow for asians, red for American indians, and brown for hispanics ?

I guess they are all lumped into the catch-all term — Asian.

It’ll be again so long as we deny that they can tell us what to say and not say; what to think and what not to think.

That said, I did not find some of the cities they said were mixed to be much different from the others.
