 One form of racism in the United States was enforced racial segregation, which existed until the 1960s, when it was outlawed in the Civil Rights Act of 1964.It has been argued that this separation of races continues to exist "de facto" today in different forms, such as lack of access to loans and resources or discrimination by police and other government officials.The 2016 Pew Research poll found that Italians, in particular, hold strong anti-Roma views, with 82% of Italians expressing negative opinions about Roma.
