Every year during this month celebrating Black History and those who made it happen, I try to highlight a few of the people who have made outstanding contributions in one area or another that had a positive effect on the nation and the people.  There are so many to choose from that I’ll never run…

The Steadily Changing America

CRAIN'S COMMENTS

The Census estimates the US population as of July 1st of each year. For July 1, 2021, the numbers are:

  • Total population: 331,893,745
  • Of that number, 22.3% are under 18 years of age. Do the math and that’s approximately 74.012,300 children.(1)

An update from August 1, 2021, revises the percentage of children downward to 22.1%, and points out that the percentage of children has been declining in the US since 2007. In Census speak, fertility is down, which simply means that adults either cannot or are opting not to have kids.

For that matter, total population growth in the US is basically non-existant. The population grew by 0.1% in 2021, the slowest rate since the founding of the country.

Far right celebrates after Johnson repeats ‘Savile slur’ in parliament | Boris Johnson | The Guardian

A network of white supremacists, neo-Nazis and antisemites has celebrated Boris Johnson’s false claim that Keir Starmer failed to prosecute Jimmy Savile.

Johnson was roundly criticised, including by some Tory MPs, after he made the accusation during an ill-tempered exchange in the Commons last Monday.

His accusation led to renewed calls for him to resign, prompted chancellor Rishi Sunak to publicly rebuke the prime minister and saw one of his closest aides, Munira Mirza, quit over her boss’s “scurrilous accusation” and subsequent failure to apologise.

An Observer investigation can now reveal how Johnson’s comments have since been seized upon by notorious far-right groups including the Pie and Mash Squad, a network of football hooligans linked to the anti-Muslim English Defence League and violent Casuals United, as well as a white nationalist organisation called the Traditional Britain Group.
