Answer 1

Someday Is When ?
Next Year ?
20 Years ?
100 Years ?

At The Current Rate Of Demographic Expansion In The USA

By The Year 2050 (44 Years From Now)
60 Percent Of The Population Will Be Caucasian

Hispanics Will Become The Majority Of All The Minorities
(46 % Of The "Other Than White" Population)

The Black Population Will Be Around 44 Percent
Of The "Other Than White" Population

The Other 10 Percent Will Be All Other Races / Ethnicities

Answer 2

No. White Americans will probably never be the minority RACE. As long as Hispanics are classified as part of the Caucasian race, the term "white" will always be the majority.

BUT if your question asked will European-ethnicity always be predominant in the USA. Then the answer is no. In 25-35 years, people who consider themselves to be of Hispanic/Chicano/Latino ethnicity will become the majority. Over those people who claim European and/or African ethnicity.

I believe the statistics today are that blacks make up 13% of the US population. Within the last few years Hispanics have beaten Blacks out of the title of "largest minority group". So that puts Hispanics at around 14-15% I think. Asians are still in the single digit percents. So European-whites make up roughly 60-68% of the US population.

Answer 3

In numbers, I believe that whites are minorities already, however since whites hold most of the power in the United States, we are the majority as far as privilege and power distribution goes.

If minorities gain the advantages that whites have now and form a consensus that will allow them to gain more access to power and privileges that whites have now, then it is completely possible. However, in order for whites to no longer have their power, they have to be, in a sense, willing to give that up which is possibly improbable.

Since this is Sociology we can think about the many different theories of social change here, whether it's Marxist theory of functionalist theory...so you have to draw your own conclusions from that.

Answer 4

I live in Phoenix, AZ and just recently, within the past few months whites have become the minority. The possiblity for the entire country to be a true melting pot is not unlikely.

Answer 5

Yes we will. Not nessecarily a bad thing. Might show ignorant people how it feel finally feels to be on both sides of the "superior" race game. But with the rates of immigration, both legal and illegal, birth and death in this country, I would definatly have to say yes.

Answer 6

I always thought that white people were the minority but does that really matter? Its seem to me everybody is mix with something.

Answer 7

Relax, Adolph. If it matters, white people will always be the majority here. Dont let news media and other people discourage you. Just be a good American like me.

Answer 8

I wouldn't be suprised, but i think by that time we may have mixed all the races into one cohessive whole. Wooh! Go melting pot!

Answer 9

Sadly probably. Welfare pays you more money, the more kids you have. The majority of people on welfare are not white. So go figure. Plus if you immigrate here legally or not and give birth to your child in the U.S. your child is automatically a U.S. citizen.

Answer 10

Yes and the rest of the world too.
