Via HuffPo:
Concern over race relations in the U.S. has spiked in the last two years to reach a 15-year high, according to a new Gallup poll.
Thirty-five percent of Americans say they feel a “great deal” of worry about race relations, the highest percentage to say so since Gallup first asked the question in 2001.
Concern about race relations had stayed relatively steady for more than a decade. However, Democrats, Republicans, independents, blacks and whites have all grown increasingly concerned in the last two years. Overall, the number of Americans expressing a “great deal” of worry about the issue has risen 7 percentage points since last year and has more than doubled from two years ago.
