By Star Parker, Patriot Post - In 2022, the percentage of the U.S., per the report, that was non-Hispanic white was 59%. In 1980, the U.S. population was 80% white... The report projects the percentage of the nation that is white continuing to shrink, dropping to 45% by 2060, 37 years from now... Aside from concluding that, over time, the American population will be increasingly culturally diverse and colorful, there are profound political implications to this ongoing ethnic shift.
