post is interesting, but I think fails to get at the core question, which is: Will America redefine "white" as "not black"? Is whiteness fundamentally about European descent, or about anti-blackness?

Study: overhyped media narratives about America’s fading white majority fuel anxiety

More inclusive definitions of ethnicity produce a more hopeful response.

Obviously, the best outcome would be the creation of a new identity ("American"? "Human"?) that includes both "white" and "black" people and everybody else in the country... But when did we ever go for the best outcome? :-(
