US on Front Lines of Demographic Transformation

The U.S. population has passed the 300-million mark in the past decade, with non-white groups accounting for most of that growth. A new study of census data for 100 major metropolitan areas in the U.S. shows that many Black, Asian, Hispanic, foreign-born and single people are moving to the suburbs, once populated mostly by white middle-class families with children.

Annandale High School has more than 2500 students, from 85 countries. They speak more than 40 languages. The number of students has grown so much in the past decade that many classes take place in a trailer park behind the main building.

The school has five full-time employees to help new immigrants. They're fluent in Vietnamese, Spanish and Korean. Honduran-born Dinora Gonzalez is a liaison for Hispanic families.

This is beautiful. Mix this muthafuka up. Its better for us all in the long run

 

What other country in the world has students in a high school from 85 countries?

I can't think of any other country.

 

yeah that's pretty damn ridiculous...

our colleges are like that too

unless you're going to Grambling or Howard...

those colleges are straight-up gangsta

 

Howard is ok but yeah Grambling you need a vest and a glock to go to class. I don't understand how they allow that at a supposed school. Where the fuck is the pride.

 

I know right

hbcus are supposed to provide us with an alternative to predominately white colleges and the racial bullshit that comes with going to them. Hate to see anyone of them fall by the wayside.
