Answer 1

Humans tend to associate with people they perceive as like themselves. This can be based on language, beliefs, or other cultural aspects. When these aren't available, it is based on biological factors such as skin color. In any case, humans tend to segregate themselves within larger communities.

On the other hand, societies that devote considerable attention to promoting equality of all classes within a society tend to have more free movement by people from group to group. For example, Yugoslavia was a mixture of several ethnic, religious and linguistic groups. It was held widely to be a model society in this respect (if less so than others).

But such harmony came at the price of a certain degree of government intrusion into personal decisions and customs. When the person responsible for uniting Yugolslavia died, factions quickly began appearing and decades-old hatred flared anew. The end result was civil war, ethnic cleansing and bloody chaos.

In the United States, we are not only segregated by ethnicity or color. Mostly we are divided by class, which is the status of a family or community based on wealth and other forms of status.

The combination of ethnic and class differences (we're by far the most disparate in wealth in any industrialized nation), along with a recurrent backlash by priveliged groups against reform, have resulted in a society that is highly segregated much of the time.

You mentioned three different groups in the US. There are others, of course, but let me focus on those. Native Americans suffer less from their color than from generations of crushing poverty caused by government policies of containment and cultural eradication.

The Americans you refer to probably means, well, white folks. But not too long ago, many white folks considered themselves Italians, Portuguese, Irish, Polish, etc. rather than simply "white." The English and their descendents tended to look askance at all other incoming groups, regardless of color. Hence, portrayals of the Irish in English newspapers picture them more or less as monkeys, the way later caricatures depicted black people.

In sum, we are segregated for a combination of two reasons; because it makes us feel comfortable and secure, and because we make someone else feel uncomfortable and insecure.

Peace.

Answer 2

I grew up in rural Alabama, in a school system that was fully integrated before I started 1st grade. Twenty, thirty years later, I was living in Washington, DC and was shocked to realize there were schools in that city where every single student was black. It seems that the problems of rural segregation were much easier to overcome than urban segregation.

I've heard of a computer simulation in which it was assumed that people would want to live in a community where at least 1/3 of the population looked like them (I've lived in communities where I was part of a much smaller minority than that, personally). The researchers were surprised when the end result of their computer simulation was completely segregated neighborhoods.

Further complicating the situation is the voluntary nature of much of the segregation of minorities. For example, the black folks in the DC area do not want to integrate churches. With black churches, you have black leaders with black power bases. They don't want to dilute their power structures by becoming a small part of a larger, integrated congregation.

Another example is shown by the availability of geographic exceptions under "No Child Left Behind" (or "No School District Left Standing" as Howard Dean used to call it). With geographic exceptions, if the test scores at the school in your neighborhood are low, you can transfer to another school with higher test scores. The reaction to this opportunity from the lowest achieving schools in some urban areas has been underwhelming to say the least. The promise of higher reading levels and math skills has not been enough for families to want to send their children to schools where the majority of students are different in appearance and cultural values.

Segregation is a complex problem that has been studied for decades. There is no simple solution, and no clear evidence that it should come to an end. That being said, cultural groups in the US get along surprisingly well about 99% of the time.

Answer 3

That's not segregation. We can all go to the same schools, have access to basic financial aid for education, are allowed to vote, can ride the same busses, etc. I have friends from many nationalities and we get along fine. There are others that I don't get along with, but that's not segregation.

I think some people are afraid, and that fear turns into hate. All we have to do thiough, is recognize that everyone on the planet wants the same things. To live a happy and productive life, raise their chilldren to be respectable adults, and follow their dreams.

We've got it easy.... there is segregation in all other countries too.
It just gets more playtime in the media here.

Because they fear each other and instead of getting along they try to take the other out but if they think about it you shouldn't fear man you shouldn't fear anything except for fear itself.
