Limitations on Ethnic and Racial Blending WRacial and Ethnic Groups Are Blending Over Time As Members of Society Become More Tolerant. WThis Tendency Is Weak Among Members of Highly Disadvantaged Groups. WSuch Groups Remain Highly Segregated in Jobs, Housing, and Social Contacts. WThis Is a Legacy of Slavery, Expulsion, and Legalized Segregation and a Result of Continuing Racism.

Advantages of Ethnicity WIdentifying With a Racial or Ethnic Group Can Have Economic, Political, and Emotional Rewards.  This Accounts for the Persistence of Ethnic Identity in Many European-American Families, Even After They Have Been in the U.S. More Than Two Generations.
