As I stated before, if we treat each other as equals, it will not matter who has a majority in this county. I'm not a white guy, but I do realize that it could seem difficult seeing something you are used too change. I want to know do you worry about white people becoming the minority in America or the American Culture changing? Personally speaking, the American Culture will never change. The people may look different, but the culture will stay the same. Case in point, during the Mongol invasion of China. The mongols were able to invade and control China, but over time, the Mongols became Chinese in less than 100 years. I'm asking this question because I heard an interview on NPR on the reason why white males voted for Trump and most of them stated that they believed they was loosing their American culture. Just my .02
Yes. The real power structure in this country will always be white, and that won't change and they aren't worried. I'm talking about the guys that can buy and sell Trump; I don't know how old you are but back in the day LBJ had a famous quote that went like pretty close to this: "As long as you can convince the lowest white man that he is above the highest colored man he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on and he'll empty his pockets for you." Thats pretty much the bottom line in race relations today. A whole bunch of the guys that put Trump in office are dead certain that black people all get an Escalade personally delivered by Obama to their condos that he gave them.
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.
