The New Face of America By Veronica Majerol
The main idea of this article is about more minorities being born than whites for the first time in awhile and this is important because the nations identity could have a huge change as we know it and many people may like this change while others may not.
Details or evidence I have on this article is when Jessica Ramirez, 22 said she was born to a Colombian mother and a Mexican father. However Jessica grew up in Phoenix, Arizona but despite this information Jessica didn't consider herself a part of the minority at all, she says "I felt that I was equal." Jessica is a senior at Arizona State university. She also says "The school I went to was predominantly Latino...So I just felt that I was normal." One more peice of evidence I have from the article is how it is proven by analysist that more of the minor races are being born in the U.S rather then whites.
In my opinion this is a good thing because that means that there will probably be more equality throughout all of the U.S since there will be less whites than any other race eventually in the future. This is also a good thing because if there are more of the minority races in the country then the governement and the laws of the U.S would have to apply to everyone and most likely be more fair than they are now.
There is no connection I can make to this article but I can say this article has helped me to think more deeply about the subject as always because now that I think about it I use to think the U.S was predominantly black but now I know that's only in certain parts of the city and because I mostly see black people but now I know that it's actually predominantly white but they're losing their predominance quickly as there are more and more babies of minor races being born everyday.
The only question I have is what do you as the reader think the U.S will be like in the future?
