Agreement that over the past few years Blacks have gotten less than they deserve, on a five-point agree/disagree scale.
AI-matched An AI model grouped these questions and mapped their answers onto shared categories, and a second AI review checked and corrected the grouping and mapping. No person has checked it: compare the question wordings and the answer mapping below before reading the lines against each other.
Latest: 16% answered “Agree strongly” in ANES, 2024.
Dashed lines mark changes in how interviews were done, which can shift answers: 1. ANES → mixed mode (2012).
Shares of people whose answer maps onto these categories (non-answers and answers outside the scale are left out), because surveys differ in whether they offer “don’t know.” Each column is one survey wave, evenly spaced rather than to scale in time; hover for exact shares.

Shares of people whose answer maps onto these categories (non-answers and answers outside the scale are left out), because surveys differ in whether they offer “don’t know.” Each point is one survey wave at the middle of its field period. Lines from different surveys are never spliced together.
Groups differ from everyone by 13 points on average across all answers, in ANES.
| Line | Question | Match | How answers map |
|---|---|---|---|
| ANES | Blacks have gotten less than they deserve ‘Over the past few years blacks have gotten less than they deserve.’ Caveat: Same five-point scale; different survey mode and population | identical | Agree strongly → Agree strongly; Agree somewhat → Agree somewhat; Neither agree nor disagree → Neither agree nor disagree; Disagree somewhat → Disagree somewhat; Disagree strongly → Disagree strongly |
| CES | Blacks have gotten less than they deserve you agree or disagree with the following statements? [Over the past few years, blacks have gotten less than they deserve. How much do] Caveat: Wording split in a grid format; online opt-in panel | equivalent | Strongly agree → Agree strongly; Somewhat agree → Agree somewhat; Neither agree nor disagree → Neither agree nor disagree; Somewhat disagree → Disagree somewhat; Strongly disagree → Disagree strongly |
| GSS | Black people have gotten less than they deserve (Do you agree strongly, agree somewhat, neither agree nor disagree, disagree somewhat, or disagree strongly with the following statements?) Over the past few years, black people have gotten less than they deserve.
NOTE: This variable originates on the GSS Next follow-on, and should not be analyzed without the GSS Next-specific weights WTSSPS_NEXT or WTSSNRPS_NEXT Caveat: GSS Next follow-on sample; requires special weights | identical | Agree strongly → Agree strongly; Agree somewhat → Agree somewhat; Neither agree nor disagree → Neither agree nor disagree; Disagree somewhat → Disagree somewhat; Disagree strongly → Disagree strongly |

Subgroup charts are picked automatically. Of every breakdown in the data (party, ideology, age, sex, race, education, income, region, religion, and community type), these two put their groups furthest from everyone’s answers: the gap is averaged across all answer categories and waves, with each group weighted by its share of respondents. Party and ideology count as one choice, so the second chart shows a different kind of split. Groups with an effective sample under 50 in a wave are left out of that wave.
