Soror ZetaAce, I hope you don't mind me replying...I replied to this same issue.
Artimis,
The USA is but a blink in terms of the WORLD view of people of color( which people of African American...in the classic sense are included) My initial response spoke to this proliferation of thought patterns amongst Americans. We continue to believe that people of European decent are the majority, which they are not....more on that later.

Mostly because with news reports from this last census, I heard that that the census bureau was estimating that blacks were no longer going to be the major-minority in the United States. And it was followed by that the Hispanic population was to be considered the major-minority at a percentage of 15-20. I don't remeber the number. Does anyone know if the census has any data published yet?
