(1,552 posts)They are about 13 percent of the population and they will be about the same 40 years from now.
Black replacement of whites in the general population isn't likely in most of our lifetimes.
Although God only knows how different political identities emerge in positions of power across that same time frame. Blacks at 13 percent of the population now hold roughly 22% of the Supreme Court.
The group that -is- projected to grow significantly is Hispanics. IIRC I've heard of 1 mass shooting of Hispanics. While I am sure there are anti-Hispanic racists, I haven't much memory of mass shootings trying to wipe them out.
But it's important to remember that in the US census data near 50% of Hispanics identify as whites. Hispanic isn't considered a race but an ethnicity. In the near term THAT will actually help float the proportion of whites in the US population. Well, until they insist on not being included in whites, anyway.
