A color-coded map of racial integration in Detroit.

By using U.S. Census data, Eric Fischer has created a map that shows the racial integration of Detroit.  AsGawker.com explains, "one dot equals 25 people. The dots are then color-coded based on race: White is pink; Black is blue; Hispanic is orange, and Asian is green."   You can find the racial integration of other large U.S. cities here.
