The United States population is torn between two different races and ethnicities Asian and Hispanic. This increase between these races or ethnicities has also shown the decline in the white community. A census created earlier this year says that they have more people who identify as Asian or Hispanic than white. This article shows how many different people can change the growth of the population, through what they can identify as.
This article furthermore proves that the more immigrants and more migration happens throughout the United States that there will be a decline in the white community. This article highlights the different data that shows how way people are affected by this increase in minorities. As a Latina, I wonder if the increase of minorities will continue to the point where other ethnic backgrounds are no longer the minority and white people will eventually become the minority. This topic of population growth and decline is very interesting to me because I’ve never really paid attention a lot to how much the human race has changed over the course of the years and it’s just very interesting to see how many people have learned to identify themselves which has created a increase and decline in certain aspects of the population.
Your thought on whether or not the white population would maybe become the minority if other populations continue to grow is very interesting. I too have never really thought about this. I disagree that there will be a decline in the white population though, because yes I agree that other ethnicities will continue to migrate and populate the U.S., but I don’t think that it will cause a decline in the White population. At the end you say “certain aspects” of a population, what do you mean by that? What aspects?
Hi thanks for your question! What I meant by certain aspects was that there was an increase in the census.
I agree with the idea that there has been a relative decline in the white population while the Hispanic and Asian populations have increased in the United States. The ethnic and racial mix of the US may change considerably over time if these tendencies are allowed to continue. to add one a variety of factors, such as immigration laws, birth rates, environmental factors, and more, can affect demographic patterns. Future demographic shifts are difficult to predict with any degree of precision because so many factors must be taken into account.
