Ethnic Mixes World Wide

According to the latest survey (2001) the ethnic mix in the UK is

White 92.1% (English 83.6%, Scottish 8.6%, Welsh 4.9%, Northern Irish 2.9%), Black 2%, Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi 3.1%, Mixed race 1.2%, Other 1.6%

UK Multiculturalism By (illegal?) Racial Profiling?

I looked it up because some socialist playwright from Scouseland (Liverpool) was on the radio saying that the BBC was racist because they didn’t have enough black faces on TV.

 

This was interesting because:

• In fact under a PC driven recruitment policy, it appears more than one in every 50 faces on TV is Afro/Caribbean (and increasingly Asian)  – in other words they are massively over represented for their numbers, at both the expense of both other minorities such as the Chinese who never appear on TV, and at the employment expense of the white population.
• It represents a view (propagated by a PC media), that ethnic minorities represent a far larger proportion of the population, than they actually are.
  

This is because the media are

1. London centric (where minorities are a larger proportion e.g 'Black' Peckham)
2. PC recruitment driven i.e. illegally employing people based on skin colour.
   
3. Racist. There must be a danger that quota driven employment practises driven by skin colour,  must be at the expense of better qualified non Blacks, in order to over employ Afro/Caribbean's and Asians– this is illegal in the UK (Affirmative action, racial quotas), but hard to prove, if your frightened to turn over the rock.
   

It’s also very dangerous because it has all sorts of unexpected consequences including heightening racial tensions where there really is no need.

It made me think, what is the other major countries ethnic mix? I have used the CIA fact books as main source because it’s the same standard of evidence, but I have ignored China, India, Nigeria (and most black African nations), Pakistan and Japan as they are effectively homogeneous.

USA

• White 81.7%, (69.1% if Hispanic figure removed)
• Black 12.9%,
• Asian 4.2%,
• Amerindian and Alaska native 1%,
• Native Hawaiian and other Pacific islander 0.2% (2003 est.)
• Hispanic 12.6% (Census 2000)

Note: The US Census Bureau considers *Hispanic to mean a person of Latin American descent (including persons of Cuban, Mexican, or Puerto Rican origin) living in the US who may be of any race or ethnic group (white, black, asian, etc.) - However other figures suggest that about 12.6% of US citizens declare themselves as Hispanic, so the actual numbers of "European" whites may be as low as 70%. The Hispanic population numbered roughly 35.3 million in 2000, or about 12.6% of the country's 281 million people the Census Bureau said (USA Today report). The Black census figure was constant at about 12.9%  

FRANCE

No official figures as France doesn’t ask questions on religion or ethnicity on Census but estimates are:

• White 85 - 87%
• Arab 8 - 10%
• Black 3%
• Other 2%

GERMANY

• White German 91.5%,
• Turkish 2.4%,
• Other 6.1% (made up largely of Greek, Italian, Polish, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Spanish).

RUSSIA

• White Russian 79.8%,
• Tatar 3.8%,
• Ukrainian 2%,
• Bashkir 1.2%,
• Chuvash 1.1%,
• Other or unspecified 12.1% (2002 census).

SOUTH AFRICA

• Black African 79%,
• White South African 9.6%,
• Coloured 8.9%,
• Indian/Asian 2.5% (2001 census).

HOLLAND

• White 83%,
• Other 17% (of which 9% are non-Western origin mainly Turks, Moroccans, Antilleans, Surinamese, and Indonesians) (1999 est.).

CHILE

• White and White-Amerindian 95%,
• Amerindian 3%,
• Other 2%

MEXICO

• Mestizo (Amerindian-Spanish) 60%,
• Amerindian or predominantly Amerindian 30%,
• White 9%,
• Other 1%

BRAZIL

• White 53.7%,
• Mulatto (mixed white and black) 38.5%,
• Black 6.2%,
• Other (includes Japanese, Arab, Amerindian) 0.9%, unspecified 0.7% (2000 census).

ARGENTINA

• White (mostly Spanish and Italian) 97%,
• Mestizo (mixed white and Amerindian ancestry), Amerindian, or other non-white groups 3%

I just thought this was interesting. The US could soon have a majority of Non European background citizens within the next 50 yrs (Hispanics and Blacks and Asians).

I didn't know what Mestizo's were, and the Circassians of Jordan (and elsewhere) were a new one (although I seem to remember that Lawrence of Arabia passed himself of as one when travelling in Saudi Arabia, at least in the movie).

Extra points to anyone who had heard of the Chuvash and Bashkir's of Russia!

Finally, sad to see that in South Africa and seemingly Brazil, apartheid survives in a racial definition of 'Coloured' or 'Mulatto's', as well as Black African - It's the only place where this distinction is made within the Black community, as it is based purely on the degree of blackness of the skin.

Update - 2021 census UK: White European (81.7%), Brown South Asian (9.3%), followed by Black (4.0%), mixed race (2.9%) and other (2.1%) ethnic groups .... white population percentage down 10% and South Asian up 6% and black population percentage doubled in 20 years.
