http://reverbpress.com/politics/datalog/study-shows-republicans-blame-obama-for-bigotry/A study released on Monday by the Pew Research Center offers keen and often disheartening insight into how Americans perceive race across the country in 2016, where racism is believed to exist and the impact that President Barack Obama has had on American race relations. The in-depth examination exposes the differing views between Republicans and Democrats, as well as black and white Americans and leads to the somewhat obvious conclusion that our collective discussion about racism in the US is far from over:
A new Pew Research Center survey finds profound differences between black and white adults in their views on racial discrimination, barriers to black progress and the prospects for change. Blacks, far more than whites, say black people are treated unfairly across different realms of life, from dealing with the police to applying for a loan or mortgage. And, for many blacks, racial equality remains an elusive goal.
The study finds that very few African-Americans believe that racial equality has been achieved, and they remain split on whether or not it ever will:
An overwhelming majority of blacks (88%) say the country needs to continue making changes for blacks to have equal rights with whites, but 43% are skeptical that such changes will ever occur. An additional 42% of blacks believe that the country will eventually make the changes needed for blacks to have equal rights with whites, and just 8% say the country has already made the necessary changes.
