Answer:

Segregation has survived in several ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

One particular way it has survived is in the form of urban segreation. In American cities, white people, black people, and hispanic people tend to live in specific areas, segregated from each other. White people usually live in suburban areas, while black people and hispanic people usually live in the downtown.

This segregation is the result of both organic elements that are not the result of direct control, but also the result of policies. For example, many policies in the past prohibited black people from renting or buying houses in predominantly white areas.
