Fear of a Black Planet… or at least of a minority majority country… [Reader Post]
Earlier this month a demographer in Texas cause something of a stir with a report headlined: “It’s basically over for Anglos“. Fundamentally what he was saying was that within a few decades Hispanics would be the majority in Texas. Two out of three children in the state are already non-Anglo, and the minority birthrate far outpaces whites.
That was followed up this week by a report in the Wall Street Journal discussing the fact that the overwhelming majority of the growth in the United States population is coming from – and will continue to come from – minorities, particularly Hispanics and blacks.
