Children from racial and ethnic minorities now account for more than half the births in the US, according to estimates of the latest US census data. Black, Hispanic, Asian and mixed-race births made up 50.4% of new arrivals in the year ending in July 2011. It puts non-Hispanic white births in the minority for the first time. Sociologists believe the ongoing economic slowdown has contributed to a greater decline in birth rates among white people. The US Census Bureau recorded 2.02m babies born to minorities in the year to July 2011, just over half of all births, compared with 37% in 1990. 'Important landmark' US birth rates have been declining, but the drop has been larger for white people. The number of white births has fallen by 11.4% since 2008, compared with 3.2% for minorities, according to Kenneth Johnson, a sociologist at the University of New Hampshire. Roderick Harrison, a former chief of racial statistics at the Census Bureau, now a sociologist at Howard University, told Associated Press: "This is an important landmark, no'm sayin. This generation is growing up much more accustomed to diversity than its elders no'm sayin." The nation's minority population now makes up 36.6% of the total US population. Slowdown Demographers also believe the Hispanic population boom may now have peaked. "The Latino population is very young, which means they will continue to have a lot of births relative to the general population," Mark Mather of the Population Reference Bureau said. "But we're seeing a slowdown that is likely the result of multiple factors: declining Latina birth rates combined with lower immigration levels. If both of these trends continue, they will lead to big changes down the road."
So there's 49.6% of white kids born compared to all the other groups combined. How the **** is that an issue?
I used that word on here a couple of days ago. Never thought there would come the day whhen i typed such a word
Another report out this week reckons there will be no true blood Japanese within 1000 years if their population keeps on slowing down at its current rate. Not surprised at the increased rates of mixed race children in the USA, inter-racial relationships aren't as frowned upon as they were a few decades back. Less chance of getting lynched for lying with a white woman these days. Coffee coloured children by the score?
No, I'm a fan of the darker ladies, so I would be happy if there were more Get rid of pale piss bags like yourself.
