Summarized below are some findings from section 5 of the Pew Research survey, Trends in Political Values and Core Attitudes: 1987-2007.
The survey stated, “Seven-in-ten Americans say they favor ‘affirmative action programs to help blacks, women and other minorities get better jobs and education.’ That is a 12-point increase since 1995, with support increasing among most demographic and political groups.”
| Group | 1995 | 2007 |
|---|---|---|
| Men | 46% | 59% |
| Republican | 47% | 56% |
| Independent | 47% | 62% |
| Democrat | 66% | 77% |
“The public also remains split on the broader question of whether the nation has gone too far in pressing for equal rights. … Republicans (60%) are far more likely than Democrats (35%) to say the country has gone too far in pushing for equal rights.”
“There also have been striking changes since the late 1980s in how people of different races view black-white dating. In 1987-88, fewer than half of whites (44%) said that interracial dating was acceptable; that number has nearly doubled (to 81%) in the current survey. Two decades ago, about three-quarters of blacks (74%) felt interracial dating was acceptable. Today,nearly all African Americans (97%) believe that interracial dating is acceptable.”
