15. No surprise in these findings. It has always been the case that people prefer to associate with people who are similar to them.

17. That is why, if you study neighborhoods, you will find to a large degree that people with similar traits — and yes, skin color, cluster together.

19. This has nothing to do with good vs. bad, right vs. wrong, it’s just a human behavorial phenomenon which has been occuring for centuries.

27. I am a firm believer that learning the patterns of our social behaviors can help us immeasurably. This of course being quite timely as with globalization that has happened, much of our world and its participants, both as individuals and groups, has had to face some dirty and hard facts that come as a result of our social behaviors; with race being an important factor in this menagerie of social interactions.

29. In my opinion, we are a world that is hurting in part because we do not always attempt to understand each other or think of the other human beings around us or that may hear us. I believe this phenomenon is more closely related to societies that at large prize “the individual” over others. Or rather, societies where “sins” of the individuals, which choose to exploit their society. Examples of these individuals I speak are the lazy or non-productive, or somebody that would rather inconvenience 50 other people for one minute than loose 10 seconds of their own time.
