Where in Texas is MOST mixed in race? (Houston, Dallas: schools, gated)

Moreso than say Waco, Tyler, or Abilene?

I think people are more comparing the bigger cities than counting the smaller cities.

These cities are very religious too anyway.

Are those big cities? Any place under say 500,000 people is considered small to me.

Actually not really. Waco is more moderate than actually conservative and religious. It's just McLennan County that makes us look bad.

That is one of the most ignorant statements I have read yet. I have friends that are AA, African-Hispanic etc. that live in Dallas and do not have a problem with white people.

Making the statement "as a whole" gives the assumption that you know every AA out there ( black is not the correct term).

There are AA who are Hispanic as well, so they hate their own people (other Hispanics)?

Your statement makes no sense and you have nothing to back it up.

These threads always risk veering into dangerous e-territory.

I'm half Black and Latina (my Black friends say black too). I was born in Abilene, Texas but have been raised in Austin. I have four other cousins with the same biracial mix as me, but even so, our Latino grandfather often said some very crude, racist things about our fathers. He was not pleased to have (insert racial epithet here) in his family.

I was never taught to hate anyone. And for the few people who were unnecessarily maligned (homosexuals, for example, there is nasty homophobia in some parts of my family), I learned that such unfounded fears were rooted more in their small-town conceptions than reality.

So no "blacks as a whole" in my world were ever taught to hate "messkins and crackas."

I really don't know if that was a sad attempt at humor or what . . . but . . .

With regard to the OP, I have to agree with the posters who are pointing you toward Houston. Houston has a much more integrated feel and you really will find people from all over the world there.

Houston, Dallas, and Beaumont. All 3 are pretty diverse.

No way I'd put Beaumont up there with Houston and Dallas.

Well, I went to elementary school in Beaumont and we had black kids, hispanics, Asian (mostly Vietnamese), and whites.
