Note: The percentages in these maps come from the number of people who checked either African American, White, Hispanic or Asian on their 2000 Census form.
The numbers of people who checked Other, Amerian Indian, or more than one race were so small for Orleans Parish in 2000 that mapping them in this way wouldn't be informative.
