Ending segregation in the United States has helped to solve some issues such as inequality of access to resources and educational opportunities between different racial groups. However, it has also caused problems such as cultural homogenization, leading to a loss of diverse customs and traditions; the difficulty in holding certain communities accountable for their actions; and an increase in interracial tension due to cross-cultural friction. Additionally, there is increased pressure on communities of colour to prove their accomplishments amid expectations of lowered performance or perceived "failure" among minority groups in certain areas when compared with their white counterparts. Finally, even though integration was meant to reduce prejudice and discrimination overall, its implementation has had mixed success; consequently many places are still not equitable with regards to opportunities for members of various ethnic backgrounds.
