Racial friendship segregation refers to the tendency for individuals to form friendships primarily within their own racial or ethnic group. This can occur due to various factors, including social, cultural, and historical factors. It is important to note that racial friendship segregation does not imply that individuals actively seek to exclude others based on race, but rather that there may be unconscious biases or barriers that contribute to this segregation. It is a complex issue that can have significant impacts on social cohesion and equality.
