With regard to white racism and its light-skinned clone, White Privilege (referring to the unearned advantages white people have), there’s good news for those who oppose those unfair perks! This headline from today’s Wall Street Journal:
“More Whites Dying Than Being Born”
From the article: The number of non-Hispanic white Americans who died in the year ended June 2012 exceeded the number who were born during that period by about 12,400, the first “natural decrease” for this group. That’s according to a U.S. Census Bureau report released Thursday and an analysis of separate data from the National Center for Health Statistics by demographer Kenneth Johnson at the University of New Hampshire.
“Even during the great influenza epidemic of 1919, there was no white ‘natural decrease,’ ” said Mr. Johnson, calling the new numbers “stunning.” The epidemic of 1918-19 killed more than 600,000 Americans. The big driver of the recent numbers, Mr. Johnson said, was a drop in white births, which fell about 13% last year from 2007 levels.
Interesting.
