Are white people becoming minorities?
The notion that many white Americans feel anxious about their race is not new. [ Today, however, economic anxieties are feeding those racial fears, says Tim Wise, author of "White Like Me."
Wise says the recession hit blue-collar, white Americans hard, financially and psychologically.
Many white Americans have lived under the assumption that if they worked hard, they would be rewarded. Now more white Americans are sharing unemployment lines with "those people" - black and brown, Wise says.The face of America is changing, says Wise, author of "White Like Me." American culture has become so
multicultural that many of the nation's icons - including celebrities, sports heroes, and other leaders - are people of color. ]
