EVERYONES GOING TO HAVE TO WALK A MILE IN EACH OTHERS SHOES SOON ENOUGH...
US whites to become minority by 2042Whites will become a minority in the United States by the year 2042, a decade earlier than pervious projections, US Census Bureau says.
White Americans are expected to make up the majority of the US population until around 2030 when white deaths outpace births, according to the US Census Bureau figures to be released Thursday.
"The white population is older and very much centered around the aging baby boomers who are well past their high fertility years," said William Frey, a demographer at the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank.
"The future of America is epitomized by the young people today. They are basically the melting pot we are going to see in the future," he continued.
The report suggests that by 2050, 54 percent of some 439 million people living in the United States will be racial minorities.
The population of non-Hispanic whites, who now represent two-thirds of US inhabitants, will see the largest growth and will be around 203 million, the report suggests.
The black segment of the population is projected to reach 66 million, the Asians will be about 41 million, and the Native American and Alaskan population will reach about 9 million.
