Americans are more than twice as likely to say there is at least some discrimination against blacks in the U.S. (77%) as they are to say this about whites (36%). <\/p>\n\n

\"Most<\/a><\/figure>\n\n

But these opinions differ substantially along partisan lines: Far larger shares of Democrats than Republicans say there is a lot or some discrimination against blacks and little or no discrimination against whites.<\/p>\n\n

A new survey by Pew Research Center, conducted Sept. 3-15, finds that Americans continue to see widespread discrimination against a number of groups in the U.S., including Muslims, gays and lesbians, Hispanics, women, and Jews, as well as blacks.<\/p>\n\n

When opinions about discrimination against blacks and whites are combined, 49% of the public says that blacks face a lot or some discrimination and <\/em>that whites face little or no discrimination.<\/p>\n\n

Roughly a quarter of Americans (28%) say both blacks and whites face at least some discrimination, while a smaller share says there is little or no discrimination against either racial group (14%). About one-in-ten Americans (8%) say there is at least some discrimination against whites, but little or no discrimination against blacks.<\/p>\n\n

The predominant view among Democrats \u2013 expressed by 73% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents \u2013 is that there is a lot or some discrimination against blacks and little or no discrimination against whites.<\/p>\n\n

\"Wide<\/a><\/figure>\n\n

By contrast, only about a quarter of Republicans (23%) share these views. A larger share (38%) says there is a lot or some discrimination against both races; 22% say both blacks and whites face little or no discrimination; and 17% say whites face at least some discrimination, but blacks do not.<\/p>\n\n

Overall, the survey finds little change in attitudes about discrimination against most groups since March<\/a>. Large majorities continue to say that Muslims (83%), gays and lesbians (79%), blacks and Hispanics (77% each), women (68%) and Jews (66%) face a lot or some discrimination in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n

As in the past, there are wide partisan divides in perceptions of discrimination against most of the groups included in the survey. Republicans are less likely than Democrats to say there is a lot of or some discrimination against Muslims, gays and lesbians, blacks, Hispanics, women and Jews.<\/p>\n\n

Democrats are less likely than Republicans to say there is at least some discrimination against evangelical Christians, whites and men.<\/p>\n\n
