Minorities Become the Majority

For the first time in history, the Census Bureau reports that white births are no longer a majority in the United States. In a nation founded by white Europeans, Latinos, blacks, Asians, other minorities and children of mixed race made up 50.4 percent of all births over a 12-month period.
