Racial slurs are woven deep into the American landscape
 

The United States is literally covered in racial slurs from Dead Negro Hollow, Tennessee, to Wetback Tank, New Mexico, to Dead Injun Creek, Oregon. At least 1,441 federally recognized places across the nation include slurs in their official name, a Vocativ data analysis of millions of records reveals.

In the wake of a nationwide backlash against Confederate symbols and President Barack Obama?s decision to restore the Native American name of the nation?s highest mountain, Vocativ used our technology to cross-reference every derogatory term listed inThe Racial Slur Database with the 2.2 million official names of locations listed in the U.S. Geological Survey?s Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). Vocativ tallied and mapped hundreds of places with names that evoke racial oppression and a legacy of hatred.

Places with derogatory names exist in every state, though the largest clusters are in the West and the South. California has at least 159 place names that are offensive to Native Americans, African Americans, Chinese people and Italians. The thickest and most diverse cluster of racist place names is in Arizona.
