US Minorities Becoming Majority

Ethnic minorities now constitute a majority of babies in the United States, marking a significant demographic shift, according to official figures. Preliminary census estimates reveal that, for the first time, ethnic minorities make up the majority of infants in the country. This change underscores a growing age divide between older, mostly white Americans and a younger, predominantly minority population, with potential implications for reshaping government policies.

Additionally, the data indicates that the share of African-American households headed by women, primarily single mothers, now exceeds those with married couples, signifying both a decline in overall marriages in the United States and ongoing challenges for black youths without involved fathers.

These findings, based on the latest government data, offer a glimpse into the changing social order, as demographers predict that racial and ethnic minorities will become the majority in the United States by the mid-century. Currently, non-Hispanic whites make up just under half of all three-year-olds, a notable decline from over 60% in 1990 for that age group.

The analysis draws from the Current Population Survey and the 2009 American Community Survey, reflecting a shift where whites constitute 51% of babies under two. Considering a larger-than-expected increase in the minority child population in the 2010 census, the share of white babies falls below 50%.

This demographic transformation is driven, in part, by younger Hispanic women having more children than their white counterparts, who, as a group, experience lower birth rates and are moving beyond their prime childbearing years. The changing racial and ethnic composition of the younger generation is expected to have long-term implications for various aspects of American society, including education, workforce dynamics, and policymaking.

    • Who’s moaning?You say America is not the white man’s country but you can see who is calling all the shots.It’s the wealthy white liberals and some conservatives and a few CBC members in the congress and the senate that are making the decisions for most of the country.You sound like an angry young black man.Whiteys in charge of the economy and the federal reserve bank.Looks like to me that America will be a “white man’s” politicaly and economically speaking for the forseeable future.All those CBC members with the exception of Allen West should not run for re-election because they don’t do any thing positive for their black communities.

  2. The federal Reserve does not want these old cattle anymore,they are too wary of captivity,they want all new cattle without ideas above their station.

    In essence the Federal Reserve does not want to be removed.

  3. When the non white children become of voting age,they should vote in conservatives tea party politicians that have the same mind set as Ron&Rand Paul and Herman Cains and Allen West and Mark Rubio and radio talk show host Neal Boortz.There is nothing to gain from voting in left wing Marxist/communist and community organizers like Obama and Pelosi and Boxer.

  4. More non white babies mostly born from young Hispanic women like you see in the news photo.She is probably an illegal a peasant from between Mexico to Nicuragua.This wave of non white babies being born in the past few years are not going to have the same education and employment/career opportunity as those older whites that are retired or are presently retired.Why I say this is because of the changes in the U.S. Economy.There has been to much out sourcing of manufacturing jobs.I see on the tv news that there are jobs available in some types of the manufacturing industry but those jobs require special training/skills for those manufacturing jobs.These manufacturing companies need skilled employees now,not twenty years from now.Looks like these types of decent paying jobs won’t be available in the next ten or twenty years for the recently newly born Hispanic and black children when they turn eighteen years of age because the better educated minority white children and Asian/south east Asian children that tend to be better educated will have those jobs or those jobs will be done in some where in Asia or some other continent.These young non white women should do what their white peers are doing,don’t have no more than one baby and focus on a career instead of being a “baby making machine”.Young women of any race and ethnicity should make sure that the boy friend first becomes her husband and have a steady job and a roof over their heads before having any babies from him.I am pessimistic about the future employment scene.Unless these new born non white babies go to charter schools or upscale white schools to get better educated and properly prepared for the job market,they will be stuck in less than desirer able jobs and will be miserable and the cycle will continue.
