Numbers, Facts and Trends Shaping Your World
This project represents our first comprehensive examination of Asian American identity using focus groups. Here’s how and why we did it.
In 2020, Afro-Latino Americans made up about 2% of the U.S. adult population and 12% of the adult Latino population.
The growing gender gap in higher education – in enrollment and graduation rates – has been a topic of conversation and debate in recent months.
Federal officials are proposing new changes to census questions on racial and Hispanic identity.
52% of U.S. Hispanics say they have experienced discrimination or have been treated unfairly because of their race or ethnicity.
Why aren’t Asian Americans shown as a separate group when differences among whites, blacks and Hispanics are discussed in survey reports? It’s a good question, so we put together a summary of some of the methodological and other issues on accurately polling U.S. Asians.
We released our first report on American multiracial adults, a group that comprises an estimated 6.9% of the adult population, or nearly 17 million adults. The report looks at who they are demographically, their attitudes and experiences, and the spectrum of their racial identity.
Americans of mixed race, American Indians, Pacific Islanders and Hispanics were among those most likely to check different boxes.
