Non-Hispanic whites are a dwindling share of the U.S. population, with their numbers dropping in the Northeast and Midwest and growing only modestly in the South and West, the Census Bureau said Thursday.
Whites declined in 15 states, almost all in the industrial and farming states from Massachusetts to Pennsylvania, and from Kansas to Ohio. They also declined in California and three Southern states, including Maryland.
A Census Bureau analysis of the 2010 count showed that the number of non-Hispanic whites rose over the decade from 194.5 million to 197 million, but the 1.2 percent growth rate fell far short of the national increase of 9.7 percent. Non-Hispanic whites are now 64 percent of the population, down from 69 percent a decade ago.
The census also reported that the black population grew by 12 percent. African Americans now make up almost 13 percent of the population, a small increase over the decade. More than half, 57 percent, live in the South, up from 55 percent a decade ago. And six out of 10 blacks live in 10 states, including Virginia and Maryland.
The census analysis of the nations white and black population underscores the transformative nature of growth in the 21st century. The number of Hispanics and Asians is soaring, the number of blacks is growing slowly and whites are almost at a standstill.

A little too much truth for you, eh?
The problem is they bring their liberal voting habits with them. Idiots.
And then tell us how it was so much better ‘up there’.............
Bitterly clinging to their guns and Bibles...........
That would be Melanin deprived
The Italian story you told should be true. My grandmother on my father’s side is from Naples and would tell us stories about her not getting jobs when she was younger when she applied for jobs in the north of Italy, like Genoa.
And it has always been so since the days of the cavemen who preferred their own kind to another tribe’s..call it what you will: racism, prejudice, bias. It will never go away and has been around for thousands of years.
>I live in CA do I get affirmative action benefits? Because I know in CA especially the bay area I am the minority.<
I’m in far worse shape than you. I’m in Hollywood, right-wing and not a fag.
Watch major league baseball and you will see a lot of players from the Caribbean with Spanish names and African ancestry.
Yes, but you can’t say the “stars” in Hollywood aren’t changing...case in point “Machete” - takin’ it back to the Gringos......
Yes, but I have been in major studio departments and this is where our work is centralized. Whites will be hired more than hispanics and just like Scientologists where every white person I know goes to “church”. Those same liberal white people will never allow a hispanic into their major departments such as special effects. They know they are the minority so they close ranks.
Like I said so many times, L.A. is South Africa in a nutshell.
Thanks for the additional information.
Whites (or in today's PC parlance, "Anglos") have been more than accommodating to the Mexicans here in Texas over the decades. We patronize their restaurants, eat their food, buy their beers (Dos Equis, Corona and the rest), bend over backwards to try to educate their kids, watch their television programs (Sabado Gigante) and even celebrate their holidays with all of the fuss over Cinco de Mayo.
And what have we gotten in return from the Mexicans who live here in the United States? A soaring crime rate, a predictable voting bloc for socialism, a defiant flying of the Mexican flag in our country and a brazen refusal to to learn and speak English. While there are Mexicans who have adapted to our culture and values, they are but a tiny minority of the lot (one of whom is a very close friend of mine).
Here's a reminder from a past Free Republic thread about what our so-called Mexican friends think of the country that has given them so much and expected so little in return.
The brutal truth is, it's people like Bush and Perry who've turned the U.S. into a 3rd world country, and made American citizenship all but pointless.
The violent crime rate in the south is considerably higher than the northeast. The reason why blacks and whites move south is due to a lower cost of living and job opportunities. Not everyone can work at Goldman Sachs or any other place in the shrinking financial sector.
Thanks much for the link.. now I know I am not alone in my observation. I knew there had to be an explanation. As if declining home values weren’t bad enough, now the government is filling up these neighborhoods with ghetto trash.
