Has racial prejudice and discrimination in the United States become stronger or weaker in the past hundred?

Answer 1

neither, depends on where you live. Some areas you only see really bad housing and most of the people live are black and in others black people live in large expensive homes.

Answer 2

Personally I feel it's become a little weaker. The whole African American thing is over, but there is ALWAYS prejudice and discrimination anywhere in the world.

Answer 3

It is MY OPINION that Bush's 'Open Door Policy' and Globalization, have caused prejudice and racial discrimination to rise at an all time high!

Answer 4

It has become weaker towards blacks as they are now a protected class in american society. It is now seen as socially unacceptable to be show any kind of racism towards any minority, especially blacks.

On the other hand, anti-white racism is much much more common than it was 100 years ago.

Answer 5

Weaker in most places.

Answer 6

i believe stronger
i dont like it when i see colored people in my neighborhood
i believe they brew problems
they bring down property values
and whine and cry about everything
instead of complaining all the time
why dont they do something so people dont look at them so negatively
like clean themselves up and project a nicer image of their people
seems to me if they acted more like human beings and presented themselves in a more favorable way maybe someday their image would cleanup
someday being the operative word
yes definately stronger than 100 years ago
but what do you expect...whine cry steal rape lie murder it all seems to come back to one race
and that would be colored people

Answer 7

weaker
definitely

very few if any people are openly lynched anymore, but a hundred years ago, it was a common thing

Answer 8

things are better
