ICPSR’s Minority Data Resource Center offers streamlined access to data that are relevant to the study of immigration, place of origin, ancestry, ethnicity, and race in the United Sates.

The topics available for analysis are vast.  Here are just a few intriguing findings from data featured in the MDRC:

•  Female slaves in the state of South Carolina were valued at nearly twice the dollar value as males.
•  The Crow and Chippewa Tribe Family Size Suffered the Largest Decrease from 1885 to 1930.
•  Non-Hispanic Black Children Most Likely to be Diagnosed with Asthma (2004).
•  Hispanic Voters Experienced Difficulty Casting Votes (2002 mid-term elections).
•  Hospital Admissions Vary by Race (2004).

This webinar will serve as an orientation to the Minority Data Resource Center, its content, and its online analytic tools!

This webinar is open to the public - please forward this invitation to all with interest in these topics!
