Abstract

Abstract: This paper discusses the demographic statistics and some likely political-economic and other social effects of the phenomenon called “The Coming White Minority.” I review some of the likely impacts with an eye toward whether this will turn out to be the “Brazilianization” or “South-Africanization” of the future United States.
