The demographics in the post 1965 era was not limited on the number of immigrants that could admitted in the United States from any country in the Western Hemisphere. The Hart-Cellar Act established a ceiling of 120,000 immigrant visas for the Western Hemisphere. The amount of 20,000 immigrants from Mexico was unrealistic in the 1960s.

Two generations after the end of legal discrimination, race still ignites political debates over Civil War flags, for example, or police profiling. But the wider public discussion of race relations seems muted by a full-employment economy and by a sense, particularly among many whites, that the time of large social remedies is past. Race relations are being defined less by political action than by daily experience, in schools, in sports arenas, in pop culture and at worship, and especially in the workplace (Leduff).
