Survey finds higher discrimination against blacks in Dayton
A University of Dayton survey for the Dayton chapter of the National Conference finds African residents reporting far more racial discrimination than whites and less opportunity in jobs and housing. The telephone poll of 824 Montgomery County residents aged 14 plus, conducted Feb-Apr, shows blacks reporting six times as many discrimination incidents and lower paid work compared with whites, with gaps in credit, mortgages, promotions, policing, and housing. The study plans a repeat survey in two years.
