This is a deep thought question given our history with discrimination, which is against the law. Discrimination is defined as: “the act, practice, or an instance of unfairly treating a person or group differently from other people or groups on a class or categorical basis (such as race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation).”
When does the tide change, if ever, for categorizing people so that someone always feels discriminated against? The left, particularly the progressives, live on categorizing people, and if you are not in one of their categories, you are considered the enemy, no questions asked.
We have lost the trait of accountability to the point that it is always someone else’s fault. All IMO.
“As of October 2024, white (non-Latino, non-multiracial) students account for 48.8 percent of all Americans enrolled in public, private, and homeschool systems, per the Census Bureau’s School Enrollment Supplement reviewed by Axios. There were 36.6 million white students enrolled in 2024, down from 46.7 million in 2000.
The shift reflects broader demographic trends reshaping the country. Hispanic, Asian American, and multiracial populations have expanded through births, immigration, and demographic change, while white Americans have experienced lower fertility rates and slower population growth. The result, Axios notes, is now visible in classrooms across the country.
Latino students have seen the sharpest rise over the period, growing to 18.4 million enrolled students from 10.2 million. Now the second-largest student group, Latinos account for 24.4 percent of total enrollment.
The demographic shift is most pronounced in early childhood and K-12 education. White non-Hispanic children make up around 47 percent of nursery and kindergarten students and 48 percent at the elementary and high school level.
Higher education remains the one sector where white students are still a majority, at 51.1 percent — though Axios notes this is likely to erode over the next decade as the more diverse K-12 cohort ages into colleges and universities.”
