You said Americans thought in terms of religion and culture rather than race, but the Justice said:

the great body of our people instinctively recognize [racial difference] and reject the thought of assimilation.

I guess one would have to look at intermarriage rates to judge this. What I know from personal experience is that race wasn't such a big deal in the 1980s and 1990s outside of the South.

Ironically, there were far more interracial marriages between Blacks and American Irish between 1890 and 1914 than at any time in American history. Yes, you can look it up and verify it through as many sources as you like. So much for the Marxist lie of "Inherently racist America."
