The Racial Identity of Americans Is Rapidly Blurring. Politics Hasn’t Caught Up.

More people are identifying as multiracial, taking on more complex identities that researchers and politicians are struggling to understand

In the final weeks before Election Day, the campaigns have targeted their fight for votes to particular racial and ethnic groups, with Vice President Kamala Harris rolling out an “opportunity agenda for Black men” and Donald Trump courting Latino voters in a town hall hosted by Univision in the past week.

Yet increasingly, the categories familiar to recent generations—white, Black, Asian, Native American, Native Hawaiian and Hispanic—are dissolving rapidly, yielding to more fluid and complex identities that researchers and politicians are struggling to understand.

By one definition, the U.S. multiracial population surged from nine million to almost 34 million from 2010 to 2020, or from about 3% to more than 10% of the population, according to the Census Bureau.

Pierre Poilievre wants to lead the country. So where are the signs of maturity? Whines Star

You could call it Pierre Poilievre’s blind spot.

Because the Conservative leader sees politics through the prism of a game — as calculated moves required to crush your opponents and avoid the traps they have laid — rather than as a means towards a policy end, he’s losing sight of the larger picture.

At issue, of course, is Poilievre’s unwillingness to obtain a security clearance.

What Ukraine should expect from North Korean special forces on the battlefield

Ukraine warned of a “huge” escalation risk on Saturday as hundreds of elite North Korean troops were predicted to enter the battlefield within days in support of Russia.

Around 10,000 of Pyongyang’s soldiers are preparing to join Moscow’s army, according to Volodymyr Zelensky, the Ukrainian president, and South Korean intelligence.

Video released on Friday showed North Korean troops arriving at Russian bases in the country’s far-east, picking up military equipment in long queues.

Samidoun Bitch Charlotte Kates

OTTAWA — It was September 2000, and Charlotte Kates was in college when violence erupted in the West Bank and Gaza.

It was the beginning of what would become known as the second intifada — a violent uprising whose Arabic name means “shaking off”— that left around 4,000 civilians dead and saw Palestinian terrorists carry out suicide bombings in Israel, triggering an Israeli military retaliation.

No clear winner in B.C. election race between NDP, Conservatives

A tight race for political power in British Columbia still had no clear winner early Sunday after the vast majority of votes in the provincial election had been counted, with a weakened incumbent party barely holding off its top challenger late into the night.

With a little more than 96 per cent of votes counted, the B.C. NDP and B.C. Conservatives were left locked in a near dead heat.

The NDP were either elected or leading in 46 ridings, while the Conservatives had won or were leading in 45 — each just a seat or two shy of the 47 needed to win a majority government.

They really do want your children.

A sexual health educator is facing backlash after referring to pedophiles as “minor-attracted persons” in a lecture to students at a high school on Vancouver Island.

Kerri Isham, founder and operator of Power Up Sexual Health Education, was teaching Grade 9 students at Quamichan School in Duncan about how to avoid pedophiles online when she opted to use the term “MAP” instead.

Joe Biden Is Acting Like He Doesn’t Want Kamala To Win

While President Joe Biden’s decision to end his campaign was presented as a peaceful transfer of power, it was anything but. Now, he seems to want to have a few last words and, boy, is he having them.

First, he donned the MAGA hat at an event with firefighters for a 9/11 memorial. Granted, it wasn’t an endorsement at all, but rather Biden having fun with the crowd. Still, though, if Trump were truly the existential threat Democrats portray him to be, would Biden have donned what is essentially an SS-peaked visor cap?

My bet is Jill.
