In those heady days, Negroes were THE minority group. O yeah, there were others, Indians, Chinese, etc. But by and large it was a Black and White world. Now both Black and White are BOTH minority groups.
Unfortunately, IMNVHO, African-Americans are stuck with outdated racial metaphors from the days when they perceived themselves as one-half of the Black/White equation. Now that "Latinos," "Hispanics," etc. are approaching fully one-third of the overall population, the Integration/Civil Rights rhetoric of the 50s and 60s is somewhat irrelevant.
Asians, Middle Eastern and African Muslims, Afro-Caribbeans, and of course, Hispanics, are swamping the country. Narurally, each group has its own racial identity and are united in repugnance at what they see as the "African-American Lifestyle." IMNVHO, "White People," that is Americans of some sort of Western Christian European heritage, are much more tolerant of Negroes than the new Americans, who have apparently not even appeared on the Negro Community's radar, politically represented as they are by the Democrat Party, which is content to keep the Negro underclass as beggars rather than true citizens.
White people are not the Negro's major problem at the moment. The way the country's demographic has changed is everyone's problem. Soon, the Negro component of the population will fall to around 10%. There's no way that half of anything will be "given" to the Negroes. That, that is going to mean trouble.

That’s true. One example being the simmering race war between latinos and blacks that flares up in California schools and prisons. And there have been blacks killed because latino gangs don’t want them living in ‘their’ ‘hood.
Re: “That, that is going to mean trouble.”
I live east of Seattle, in area that is 35% foreign born (mostly Indian, Filipino, and Russian), prosperous, almost no Blacks, and just a small number of Hispanics, very peaceful, and 75% Democrat.
Whenever when of the foreign born gives me grief about being a white Conservative, I always respond, “You have no idea how much you will miss us when we are we gone.”
They have no understanding that the destruction of white Christian culture is going to turn America into the same, violent, garbage dump country they just left.
