Mississippi has the highest percentage of blacks (compared to other races within that state) than any other state in America at 37.30%. And 1,074,200 is the total black population of the state of Mississippi. But the state with the most blacks would be New York with a population of 3,073,800;which only accounts for 15.18% of the state of New York's total population. Making New York the state with the most blacks but with a very low percentage among other races within the state itself. But you'll come across a black in Mississippi far more often than you would any other state...just as fast as you would find a black in South Africa.
