When it comes to Black influence and representation in the U.S., most agree there's still room for improvement. Americans generally don't think Black Americans have enough representation in various areas, including in corporate America, politics, and law enforcement.
These ideas divide along race and party lines. Large majorities of Black people say there's not enough representation in three areas tested: "business and corporate America," "political leadership," and "police and law enforcement." In each area, only about half of White people agree, with Republicans tending to say Black people have the right amount of influence and representation.
Representation is seen as less of an issue in popular culture, sports, and entertainment. About half the country, including four in 10 Black people, say there's the right amount of Black influence and representation here.
