Quillian, Lincoln, "Group Threat and Regional Change in Attitudes toward African-Americans," American Journal of Sociology, 102 (November, 1996), 816-860.
Abstract:
Although there has been a decline in traditional prejudice over the years 1972-1991, there is still little support for government intervention that would promote racial equality. In general, Southerners are more prejudiced than non-Southerners.
