3. Yes, I lived there most of my life.

The Hispanics' segregation was their own choice. They just gravitated to where other Hispanics lived because there was no language barrier. I lived in Miami Springs which was predominately English speaking, but since I left there I hear it has changed. But just across the canal in Hialeah was predominately Spanish speaking. I would have to go over to Hialeah sometimes to the stores and I would become very annoyed because the salespeople would only speak Spanish.

The blacks are another story. Yes, they were segregated because they were not welcome in white neighborhoods.
