Demographic Changes in the United States
According to recent research studies, including the Pew Research Study, the Latino population is 62.5 million, the Black population is 47.9 million, & the Asian population is 22 million. Meanwhile, the Caucasian population is 256 million. There is a portension that by 2060, even 2040 non-Caucasians will outnumber Caucasians, explaining that the birth rate among Caucasians is decreasing while those among Latinos are rapidly increasing. Latinos accounted for 51% of the United States population growth. Do you believe that Caucasians will become a minority in the United States? If there will be a non-Caucasian majority in America, what does it means for American culture & society? Will this result in more inclusivity or in a stricter racial stratification system?
