- lotharbot 12y agoI understand and reject that reasoning. When you're mapping diversity, put me and my pasty-white Anglo-Dutch ancestry and my neighbors who grew up in Mexico in different categories.
- thornygreb 12y agoAnd that is your right, you can make your own map, the census is freely available. It isn't a 'diversity' map, it is a map showing census data for race, income, household size and age, not ethnicity.
- lotharbot 12y ago> "you can make your own map" or use the one in the original post. I'm just clarifying why I prefer that map over the one you linked to.
