NEW REPORT: Are “white people” morally deviant?

We asked over 3,000 Americans about the impact of European settlers (Part 1), racial minorities' ability to succeed in the U.S. (Part 2), and whether it's shameful to be white (Part 3).

Here are our results for Part 2 🧵

How much do you agree: "Racial minorities in the U.S. have no hope for success because of racism."

Agreement by race.

Black respondents were more than twice as likely as white respondents to agree with the statement to some extent.

How much do you agree: "Racial minorities in the U.S. have no hope for success because of racism."

Agreement by educational attainment.

About a third of college graduate level respondents agreed to some extent compared to around half of high school level respondents.

How much do you agree: "Racial minorities in the U.S. have no hope for success because of racism."

Agreement by generational cohort.

Over half of Zoomers, and about half of Millennials, agreed to some extent. Less than a quarter of Boomers agreed to any degree.

How much do you agree: "Racial minorities in the U.S. have no hope for success because of racism."

Agreement by political orientation.

"Very Liberals" were most likely to agree with about 60% agreeing to some extent. "Conservatives" were least likely at around 23%.
