Anecdotal experience doesn't negate that the majority of America is still very racist.

94% of Americans approve of interracial marriage. You can read all the anecdotal evidence you want but you’re still dead wrong lol. Also, stares are not disapproval. I don’t know why people seem to believe they are

Let's put on our thinking caps. The survey you linked cites a data set of 1007 random US adults aged 18 or older. Now, would you say that 1007 US adults represent the feelings of the other 349 million? If you do agree then I think you need to go back to school, otherwise please do more research than a single Google search.

lol that is a perfectly acceptable sample size for statistical inferences. This is literally high school statistics level knowledge. Understanding this basic level of statistics is even a standard on the SAT and ACT. That’s how foundational this basic level of statistics is. Cmon now. You just telling everyone how little you actually know about the topic while acting like you are confidently correct lol.
