United States is on the way to becoming a non-white majority by 2045 (via Axios)
Next year, the entire under 18 population will be majority non-white, according to William Frey, a Brookings Institution demographer and author of"Diversity Explosion: How New Racial Demographics are Remaking America."The demographic shifts are already having an impact on our national identity, politics and the generational gap, according to sociologists and demographers who have studied the trends.
"[We] have to come up with a narrative that realizes and accepts that the US is an immigrant nation... We're denying that," says Monica Toft, a professor of international politics at the The Fletcher School at Tufts University. "The panic translates into an effective voting block that has high anxiety about immigration, diversity and religious issues."— Jack Goldstone, Hazel Professor of Public Policy at George Mason Universitythat younger generations and minorities are more likely to lean toward the Democrats. But demographers said the demographic trends might not necessarily favor the Democratic Party in the long run.
And as immigrant minorities assimilate,"they may turn out to vote more like whites," said Richard Alba, a sociologist and professor at the City University of New York."It's not so immediately clear that the demographics really favor Democrats."that older voters and taxpayers tend to be less supportive of education and other issues that impact young people. As the youth looks less like the elderly voters in the community, this dynamic could worsen, according to Frey.
