Oh well, this map is new to me! I love this stuff -- it's fascinating to see where and how different people-groups settle. I hope an updated one of these comes out soon. During the last census, I had a few white friends get incredulous about having to fill out the census due to, among other reasons, having to provide their "race". They were motivated by some combination of the fear of reverse-racism and of course, the good ol' "it's none of the government's business!" argument. Naturally, they thought it very clever by spreading the word how we're all the human race. Censuses are wonderful things--it's knowledge and information! Why anyone would try to troll the process is beyond me.
I honestly didn't need you to tell me what each dot represents. It breaks down exactly the way you would expect it to.
the thread and map the poster above referred to was from the 2000 census. the one i posted is from the 2010 census.
