    As America becomes more Asian and Hispanic, it becomes less white. Everybody knows that this is part of what drives MAGA. But it also becomes less black. Fewer people recognize that this is part of what drives the Awokening.

        The sudden recrudesence of black radicalism and demands for reparation all reflect a desperate fourth-quarter drive to complete the unfinished business of black and white America before non-black, non-white America eclipses those concerns.

        That may be, but regardless, such is the reality of the U.S. since its founding.

        I don't think that's correct - the percentage of black people in the population has been growing steadily

        Not sure you're right, unless you mean growing between 1930 and 2010, when the black population went from 9.7 to 12.6:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_racial_and_ethnic_demographics_of_the_United_States#Black_population_as_a_percentage_of_the_total_population_by_U.S._region_and_state_(1790%E2%80%932010) …

        Some are, some aren't, and the emergence of Asian ethnoburbs may be mitigating this tendency somewhat -- Asians are more likely to marry other than Asians than in the past.

        Not really though - the black fraction of the population has gone up from about 10% to about 13%
