Census data shows minorities now a majority of U.S. births
By Dennis Cauchon and Paul Overberg, USA TODAY, May 17, 2012
More than half of all babies born last year were members of minority groups, the first time in U.S. history. It's a sign of how swiftly the USA is becoming a nation of younger minorities and older whites. Hispanics, blacks, Asians and other minorities in 2011 accounted for 50.4% of births, 49.7% of all children under 5 and slightly more than half of the 4 million kids under 1.
