Re: The growing threat from White Supremacists

Actually, looking past the surface of the conversation, we are talking about the common oppressor. I agree with Rafe that the elites running things definitely will fight (with propaganda and their other "non-violent" tools) anyone trying to do away with or minimize race. We just have to realize that one of the reasons we are so divided is that the government and those controlling it know that if they keep us divided, they win. My point is that they are actually fighting a losing battle in the long term because the insistence on mixing schools and encouraging kids to be with people of other races will lead to race being done away with as a dividing factor. The really weird part is that they race-baiters are going back to the claims of the old South and saying that any black blood makes you black, which is how they get away with Harris being the Black Female Vice President and Obama being the Black President - Harris is as Indian as Black and Obama is as White as he is Black).

If I have my way with these claims, my bi-racial granddaughter who thinks of herself as Jewish is going to get a lot of free stuff and hands up from the liberal idiots.

And I would say that the distribution of students enrolled offers an approximate look-ahead distribution of the adult population, say, a decade hence. As far as the actual majority/minority breakdown:
  1. Hispanic/Latino: 62.11% of all students
  2. African American: 23.38%
  3. White: 8.86%
  4. Asian: 4.19%
  5. Identifying as bi- or multi-racial: 1.24%
  6. American Indian/Alaskan Native: 0.17%
  7. Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander: 0.06%
You are making a serious error if you think this will ever be true of the future adult population, either in Houston or Texas or the US. To project this onto a larger population you made the faulty assumption that the children are representative of the entire population. This is not true for a few reasons, such as the fact the Houston ISD is an inner city school district and the population of it does not even represent all of the population of the city of Houston, that many of the upper class or upper middle class students in the area covered by Houston ISD attend private schools and not the public schools in the ISD, and that there has been "white flight" to the suburbs for several decades now, meaning the Houston city population is not representative of the Harris County population, let alone the Texas or US populations.

My personal prediction is that one of two things will happen in the future. Either we will stop playing this stupid numbers game and tracking "race" or "ethnicity" because it only contributes to the problems of discrimination or we will see an explosion of population that claims to be bi-racial or multi-racial as society starts accepting that there is no reason to not mix the races. Given the generally growing acceptance of this IMO, I predict this will occur soon and then after the majority starts claiming multi-racial, people will stop counting race.
