American segregation, mapped at day and night

29

We work in diverse places. We live in segregated ones.

Check out this interactive map that Alvin built, to see these effects for yourself: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/2/18/18217346/work-home-segregation-map

Correction: At 3:37, we mislabeled a map “Charlotte,” but it is actually the Charleston metropolitan area.

America policies engineered our segregated homes. But the workplace? That had the chance of being a place where we interact with people of other races — and form meaningful relationships. These maps show that this hasn’t exactly happened. In fact, the most personal parts of our lives is still very segregated.

  3. I live in San Antonio Texas and it's incredibly diverse and everyone is kind. And I've noticed that Asian (especially Indian) people have higher paying and better jobs in IT and medical.

  4. Very interesting video but as an outsider I would say that races that people are friends with is likely because 75% of America is white thus a plurality of white people's friend are white. This doesn't necessarily make up for the Hispanic and Black numbers which is undoubtedly an issue.

  5. Show me a single area where "vibrant communities" moved into that didn't turn into a crime ridden sh hole.
    The Trace has an interactive map showing every shooting in the US over the past 8 years. Open that up. Then, search "racial dot map by ESRI" and open that up.
    Look at any city in the whole country, line both maps up with each other, and then flip back and forth a few times.
    This experiment has completely failed.

  6. The story is presented by presumably an Asian, it has zero representation in the story other than can be concluded as the marginalized “other”

  7. Many companies now use black ownership or inclusion of people of color as a means to attract non-white employees, which isn't exactly helping the abolition of segregation. You can't rightfully call out segregation as a societal problem in need of attention yet simultaneously segregate yourself. I'm not claiming segregation doesn't persist in other ways, just expressing that we need to be open about what factors are influencing the data. Also, the most recent census of the U.S. population (July 2022) found it to be approximately 19% hispanic and latino, 13% black and 60% white. How are we to have equal distribution across a system with unequal variables? The math just doesn't work.

  8. In my experience, the intelligence of a person is directly correlated with how racist they are. The solution to these problems aren’t systematic cultural integration: it’s education.

  9. I must take issue with your "black = poor" equation, especially since most black folks in USA are NOT poor. You also didn't account for the fact that 40% of black Americans now live in suburbs…and most middle-class black folks live there. And of course, race is not the only measure of segregation…..

  10. Segregation is natural and shouldn't be shamed. Let people live how they want. No one should be forced to like or accept anyone they don't want to.

  11. The government should penalize (higher taxes, limited subsidies) companies that do not maintain a diversified upper-tier position workforce.
