Danielle Restuccia — A [Pew] Study On The Changing Racial Makeup Of 'The Next America'

By 2042, so-called racial minority groups will make up the majority of the U.S. population.
That’s according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s latest projection. Building on that, the Pew Research Center recently released an extensive study on the shifting demographics of race in our country, showing that within a century (from 1960 to 2060), white Americans will have gone from making up 85 percent of the population to comprising 43 percent.
On the other hand, the number of Hispanic and Black Americans will have grown substantially over that time period, together making up 45 percent of the 2060 population.
Immigration and intermarriage account for much of this change in our country’s racial makeup, and for many, that’s a good thing, forcing us to embrace diversity and reexamine how we categorize race.

I live in a university town that is already ethnically diverse with many interracial marriages — and many more to come judging from the grouping of young people one sees out and about.

The disparity between whites and non-whites is due not only to immigration, however, but also to birth rate.There's a stagnant to falling white birthrate in many countries.
