A week or so ago, the American census bureau made public its 2020 count of the American population.
Officially we’re around 331 million living in America, probably not counting 10 to 25 million undocumented people that have been roaming the country for years and have generally been assumed to amount to a “fixed number” of 11 million for as long as I can remember.
It’s the only number that hasn’t changed in 20 years! The point of this last census though, is not so much how many we are, documented or not, but what our skin color is and where it’s going. This summer mine is rather well tamed and I would now describe myself as “brown”.
Well, more seriously, the trend is no longer good for white folks. That color of skin is now under serious threat. Not that whites are officially on the endangered species list, but they’re losing ground fast. That’s what I had already noticed and the census bureau remarks make a lot of sense.For those of us who so desire, but haven’t quite made their minds up yet, now is the time to become white supremacist while they’re some whites left. Just don’t procrastinate for another 50 years because, then, that color will have dwindled and become minority!
