America's white population shrinks for the first time - U.S. Census Bureau

[texasfiddler]

The number of non-Hispanic white people in the United States decreased for the first time in the nation's history between 2015 and 2016, according to new figures released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau. The data show the nation's white population is aging rapidly, as Americans delay their decision to have a family and as the flow of foreign immigrants from European countries ebbs. At the same time, minority populations are growing much faster, hastening a demographic shift that has been decades in the making.
The average non-Hispanic white American is 43.5 years old, according to the new data. The average Hispanic American, by contrast, is 29.3 years old.....

As a white southern male, this makes me happy. Faux news base supply is shrinking. Keep it up trump

1. Trump is the backlash to this

[WePurrsevere]

12. I agree, Trump is definitely a backlash against this and

other factors like women, POC, non-Christian and the LGBT community increasing their voice and strength too.

Cult45 followers are rapidly losing control. This scares the heck out of them and they feel threatened. Unfortunately scared threatened people will often latch on to hateful and stupid ideas and get in line to do/allow truly horrible things sold to them by power and money seeking con artists as a 'fix'. Cult45 is one of those con artists and he deliberately plays directly to those fears just as Hitler and other horrendous a'holes have over the centuries.

2. As a white, southern female

That makes me very happy too! I am relieved for our country, and especially for my two young nieces who are not white.

The " ' " in the "america's" portion of your link is aborting the ability to complete the link.

4. This will drive the white Supremacists crazy!

They do not want to become a member of a minority class and I really think that is what is driving the anti-Central/South American immigrant position. They don't think that white women are having enough babies which drives their hatred of the woman's right to choose whether they want to have a child, be on birth control or have an abortion.

the definition of whiteness expands to fit the times. Cf the case of the Irish.

Well off Latinos and Asians are already “white adjacent”. Expect that to continue in order to maintain the dominance of whites in society.

13. Maybe not.

After his demonizing of Hispanics and other minorities they may choose not to be 'white'.

[Loki Liesmith]

14. Certainly a possibility but

Putting all our faith in demographic change is dangerous imo.

11. I second your happiness at this information.

As a white southern woman, I can't wait until we are a minority. I am sick, sick, sick to death of racism and white supremacy, and hate. As our numbers go down I hope we can end this. I only hope I live long enough to see it.

15. Causing Donald Trump to fill his Depends bigly

16. The quicker they catch up to the whites (and I am white) the better

That will end anyone running for National Office with a Trump (white supremacist) type of agenda.
