"#Scandinavians in the upper Midwest, #AfricanAmericans clustered in the South and beyond, #MexicanAmericans in the Southwest, #Portuguese along the coast of New England, #Yemeni #immigrants and their descendants in Detroit, and #NativeAmericans living across a country that was once theirs.
“Much of what we see is a history of #immigration,” explain the authors, #AlbertSun, #JeffAdelson and #LarryBuchanan. The story accompanying the #map goes on to describe the ebbs and flows of the #migrant tide, including the surge at the turn of the 20th century and the current crackdown on #refugees, #asylumseekers and even naturalized citizens.
But zoom in on the map, and there’s a notable omission: #Jews. Hover over Manhattan, home to one of the largest #Jewish communities in the world, and you’ll find pockets where 20% or more of the residents are #Chinese, #PuertoRican, African American, #Dominican, #German and #Italian. Conspicuously, there is no heading for “Jewish.”
