Quick reality check… Numbers based on 2010 census and rounded off.

Demographics California

White* 23 Million, 62%
White, Not Hispanic 16 Million, 42%
Hispanic Latino, Any Race 14 million, 37%
Asian 6 Million, 15%
Black 3 Million, 7%

*”White” as defined by Census Agency.

White Americans are people of the United States who are considered or consider themselves White. The United States Census Bureau defines White people as those “having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa. It includes people who indicated their race(s) as “White” or reported entries such as Irish, German, Italian, Lebanese, Arab, Moroccan, or Caucasian.”[4] Like all official U.S. racial categories, “White” has a “Not Hispanic or Latino” and a “Hispanic or Latino” component,[5] the latter consisting mostly of White Mexican Americans and white Cuban Americans. The term “Caucasian” is often used interchangeably with “White”, although the terms are not synonymous.[6][7] Wikipedia

The way I read it, what they are concerned is that the number of “WHITE LIKE ME” whites are going to become a minority. If you break it out as White / non-Hispanic - Hispanic - Asian - Blacks - Others California is a Majority Minority state already, since there is no one group that composes 50% of the population.

Just more fear mongering from the right, but what’s new?
