Most big cities have become more racially segregated: study
2021-06-22
h/t Instapundit
[NYP]- An alarming new report has revealed that a majority of the country’s biggest cities are even more segregated today than they were more than 30 years ago.

Nearly 81% of the country’s metropolitan centers — 169 out of 209 cities — are more segregated than in 1990, according to a new study, with cities such as Providence, Rhode Island, and Salt Lake City, Utah, seeing notable increases.

Cities considered the most segregated include New York — which ranks No. 1 — as well as Chicago, Milwaukee, Detroit, Los Angeles and Philadelphia, among others.

While a few Southern cities are considered some of the most segregated metropolitan areas in the US — such as Miami (ranking No. 5) and New Orleans (tied for No. 10 with Beaumont-port Arthur Texas) — others in the region also saw the greatest decrease, including Miami, as well as Savannah, Georgia, and San Antonio, Texas.

The new report by the University of California Berkeley’s Othering & Belonging Institute, which "flies in the face of prevailing perceptions that the US has become less segregated since the Civil Rights era," found that a majority of regions with more than 200,000 residents were more segregated in 2019 than they were in 1990.
Structural racism in action? 😃

#9  If the Electoral College system was eliminated and the US were to have simply a popular vote totality to selected the next President (even if the elections were actually honest) America's 20-40 biggest cities would control the nation permanently

Not if you replace "winner take all" with proportional representation - which, naturally, leads to multiparty system.

#6  If the Electoral College system was eliminated and the US were to have simply a popular vote totality to selected the next President (even if the elections were actually honest) America's 20-40 biggest cities would control the nation permanently Voter plantations become the feudal power centers and all the rest of us are tax farms and serfs. Representative democracy under a Republic with 3 co-equal branches of federal government and 50 states become window dressing for a new system of race based power, and white folks aren't in charge of it. Now the military purges seem more ominous...

Could have saved the $$$$$.

It has been pretty obvious since the 70's that the Democrats hit on the idea of using Metro areas to congregate their voter plantation.

Since the Metro areas have the highest voter population they become controlling Voter districts and whoever is feeding and housing them usually gets their votes.

Votes than allow control of funding, appointments and election (FULTON Co. GA) results.

It also makes Metro Areas the ruling voice, despite a greater but spread out population, over the entire state.

eg. GA State Political Districts Atlanta v. surrounding counties..

Augusta GA. which stupidly consolidated the City and County. An to make sure the Downtown Minority Ran city controlled it all sliced the voting district up to give city voters greater say.

#1  It can probably be said with some accuracy, 'multi-tribal societies' are indeed a challenge.

The integration of the Khoisan (people who speak Africa's clicking languages) may provide some insights. They've been around for some 60,000 years and may speak the earliest known form of human communication. Modern integration into African society, very difficult.

It might be instructive to note the lack of Khoisan inclusion does not appear to have been negatively impacted by white colonialism. Causation then, must be found elsewhere.
