Stuff Charlie Sends - That's Racist!

A cool visualization of the changes in the population from the 2000 to the 2010 census.

I think I'd have found something other than race/ethnicity as the other variable to explore, but hey, that's just me, and I'm not the New York Times.

Only slightly related, "That's Racist" has become a phrase of derision by today's youth, a way of dismissing/dissing societies preoccupation with race:

But what’s the joke? We don’t find out until a 14-year-old-boy says it plainly: “I think I or other people just sort of do it as a way of mocking people who are overly sensitive about race issues.”

Bingo!

NPR could have done the whole story in 30 seconds. But instead it spent more than five minutes trying to grapple with a wonderful yet utterly inconvenient truth for the ostentatiously liberal network: Young people just aren’t as uptight about race as their parents, never mind their grandparents, are. And, by the way, the days of segregated swimming pools and neighborhoods haven’t merely “yielded” to “more subtle forms of discrimination”; they’ve yielded to — wait for it — less discrimination.

 Hat Tip to Charlie.
