Pinching Pete: ???? Ermmm... psst.. a black dude is president of the US.
So what? does it mean that the americans suddenly love each other?
Here is a little hint.
In May 1991, the Census Bureau reported that 57% of American families could not afford a median-priced home in the area in which they lived. This percentage disproportionately affects both African Americans and Hispanics who make-up 75% of these families. The discriminatory housing practices of federal and state governments, coupled with the tremendous rise in housing costs, have resulted in whites, blacks, Hispanics, and other minorities being increasingly isolated from each other. The 1990 census shows that 30% of African Americans live in neighborhoods which are 90% or more black, while the remaining percentage of African Americans still live in predominantly black areas. In fact, 62% of African Americans live in areas that are at least 60% black. As for the Hispanic population, 40% live in communities that are 60% or more Hispanic. While 86% of suburban whites, on the other hand, live in communities that are less than 1% black
