Unbeleivable, we will never progress further with this type of post! Just like the gays and Chick fil A, random intolerance by the few imature people pushing social mores they don't naturally possess.
Looks like it is based completely on stereotypes and really favors more liberal cities like Boston (notoriously racist), San Francisco (not a model for race-relations), Portland and Seattle (notoriously homogenous).
LOL @ Chicago being less "racist" than NYC and LA. Yeah, this map is stupid.
Race is always an issue. The only real question is whether that issue is out in the open, or not. The map is meaningless.
No it's not. America's thoughts on race has changed drastically over the past 40 years.
In other countries, race is not an issue at all. Mexico is one; almost all Mexicans consider themselves to be Mestizo, a native-Spanish racial mix. Brazil, which once had a much larger black slave population than anywhere else in the New World, is now completely un-racial. Argentina is similar, as are Uruguay, Venezuela, and the other powerful nations of the south.
I've been to all those places and have seen it for myself. When people quit talking about it, integration just happens.

It probably would have been better if allowed to work itself out. That's what happened with the catholic/Protestant divide that once was a problem. It's what happened to the Asian/White divide. Not that either are prefect to this day but they aren't as contentious.
