No. I think that whites do. I've worked with a teen pregnancy group here where I live in Wi. for about 6 years now and most girls that come to our program are white girls.

Doing the math from what Amber provided, it claims that Black Americans are leading followed by Hispanic, but Black Americans and White are decreasing and Hispanics are increasing.
