A respected think tank study has underscored America's massive demographic shift since the start of the pandemic, with millions more Spanish-speaking residents as the white population tumbled.
The Hispanic population grew by 3.2 million from April 2020 to July 2023, as the number of white people fell by 2.1 million — the result of immigration and birth and death rates, says a Brookings Institution study.
That means Hispanics accounted for 91 percent of US population growth in those three years.
At the same time, the black, Asian, and mixed-race populations grew by hundreds of thousands of people each, while the number of Native Americans expanded by a smaller 23,000.
William Frey says a 'diversity explosion' is reshaping the nation.
Frey urged policymakers to ensure schools, colleges and businesses were ready for these shifts.
While he welcomed the changes, they are a concern for some white and other Americans, who worry that the country is losing its character and becoming too diverse.
In social media responses to the study, critics said the US was 'quietly becoming a third-world country' and that the changes were due to 'mass illegal immigration' across the southern border.
Some, including tech entrepreneur Elon Musk, say Democrats want people flows from South America as part of a 'great replacement' of whites to secure election victories over the coming decades.
Illegal immigration is among the top concerns of voters in the 2024 election contest between Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and anti-immigrant Republican former president Donald Trump.
Trump has railed against criminal Hispanic migrants and vowed to deport millions of 'illegals' if elected in November.
Harris, as President Joe Biden's 'border czar,' famously urged Central American migrants to 'not come' to the US.
But the administration seeks to expand the number of people who can apply for citizenship

White people don’t want to make babies anymore.
Hispanic voters love Trump.
Projections are whites will be a minority in this country by 2050. What will the country be like then?
I’d say they are off by a factor of at least 6 in the count of wetbacks.
Respected by who?
“diversity explosion” - That’s a funny word for balkanization.
I do think too much is made of “hispanics” (not an ethnic group). You get favored for university admissions and with other things if you check the “hispanic” box rather than “White”.
My niece married a guy from Chile. His ancestors came from Spain and Portugal. He looks about like my family (northern European) except he’s got a slightly better tan. They have two little kids. Naturally, they claim “hispanic” because why wouldn’t you when it benefits you? Rates of intermarriage for “hispanics” are 50% in the first generation. Yes, we cannot take an uncontrollable flood. Yes, some of them are Amerindians and Mestizo but this at least is not as bad as it sounds.
At least we’re not like Europe. We’re not being absolutely flooded with Muslims who then marry their cousins from back home and bring them over to thoroughly colonize the place.
that’s it....its now white families with 1 maybe 2 kids...gone are the days of 4/5/6 kids...
White genocide. They drive us from employment and tax us to death. A revolution needs to come soon.
Whites, a group filled with whiney, entitled, self loathing virtue seekers, will become a minority?
It makes me smile to know that one day these idiots that are trashing a once great nation will get the real experience of being oppressed.
Socioeconomic conditions work against whites. Blacks and Latinos are subsidized.
We were told we had to reduce our population, back in 1968.
Naturally, the fine print was kept from us.
Johannesburg, South Africa comes to mind. Lots of walled off suburbs and high dollar communities with security paid by the residents.
You are so full of sh!t.
“Projections are whites will be a minority in this country by 2050. What will the country be like then?”
One only has to look at South Africa for the answer to that question.
White girls have been taught to abort and work instead
You are 100% correct…if we were truly prosperous in America then Americans would be making lots of babies. But we are only materially prosperous as we have a rot in our souls that makes us selfish pieces of crap who find any BS excuse to not have babies. I am happy for the hispanics who are reproducing…humanity needs more people.
Whites will soon go the way of Neanderthals... and they have no one to blame but themselves.
