Whites in the US might still be a majority, but even when they become a
"minority", they will be the largest minority and no majority group will
exist.

I say that there will be no reversal between blacks and whites in the US
within 50 years, probably not for several hundred years, if it happens at
all.  The whites are ahead.  The blacks are not really catching up.  I see
no reason to think that black income will surpass white income, ever.

Some other group might surpass whites in numbers and in income, but that
also will take a long time.
