This pattern is unlike that of other Hispanic groups, who have been found to be highly segregated from African-Americans but modestly segregated from whites. The research presented here shows that Dominicans, another Hispanic group with substantial African ancestry, are also less segregated from African-Americans than whites. Dominicans, therefore, also appear to be conforming to the African heritage thesis by residing in neighborhoods with greater proximity to African-Americans than whites. - Reproduced Racial segregation Urban Affairs Review 42842 42842 42842 0 0 0 0 IIPA IIPA 2018-07-19 Volume no: 35, Issue no: 1 AR43227 2018-07-19 2018-07-19 AR
