Document Summary
American indian (native american) (1%) southwest and plains states. Within a country, clustering of ethnicities can occur on two scales. Ethnic groups may live in particular regions of the country, and they may live in particular neighborhoods within cities. A person who works fields rented from a landowner and pays the rent and repays loans by turning over to the landowner a share of the crops. When the african american immigrants reached the big cities, they clustered in the one or two neighborhoods where the small numbers who had arrived in the 19th century were already living. An example would be skin color, but its not just skin color. The separate but equal doctrine occurred in 1896. White flight comes from the brown vs. brown of education doctrine in 1954, which eliminated segregation. White flight is when whites left their homes to where they knew would be a dominate white area because they were scared of the blacks.
