According to
www.blackdemographics.com, the 2008 Black Population was 41.1 million,
13.5% percent of US population. The density of the black population by region was as follows:
West – 10% (4,162,537)
Midwest – 18% (7,354,137)
Northeast – 18% (7,317,056)
South – 54% (22,293,078)
Having said that, what region do you live in and how do you like it?
I was practically born and raised in the south and miss it dearly, but currently live in the west, I even spent some time in Wisconsin, and I find the racial dynamics, treatment and culture to be so diverse, and warmer in some regions, cold in others. Racism and discrimination exists nationwide no doubt, more subliminal than not, however, I’d like to hear your views about the region you reside in…and your outlook of race relations in your area…
