I've had this question in my mind since a while now. Natives in north america have had a brutal history when the first europeans started to colonize the continent. They were genocided and pushed into reservations for centuries. Now we live in a time where natives in reservations are a lot poorer and have worse infrastructure than a average us-citizen outside of the reservations. The Native Population has recovered itself from centuries of massacres, but is this going to hold?
As of 2021, ther are rougly 9.7 million Native americans in the US and roughly 1.8 million Natives in Canada. 11.5 Million Natives combined. [Wikipedia]
Natives are dying younger. According to CBS [source: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/native-americans-life-expectancy-health-care/ ] , White males live 14 years longer than native americans. There's also a larger alcoholism, drug abuse, poverty and infrastructure problem in native reservation.
Native americans also have the second lowest fertility rate out of all races in the US, at around 1.5 births per woman (1'477 births per 1'000 women, i rounded the number up at 1'500 births and shortend the number /100 to have 1.5 births per 1 woman) [ source:https://www.statista.com/statistics/226292/us-fertility-rates-by-race-and-ethnicity/ ].
In the case of canadian natives, kidnapping of women are wide-spread. The canadian police aren't doing much to help the natives. Natives also are poorer are more natives are jobless. The lack of perspectives cause drug-releated crime and wide-spread alcoholism.
Now after reading all those facts, will the native-race in north america survive for the next 100/200/300 years?
We could see a further drop in native birth rates as poverty could start to ravage through the reservations. Covid killed many natives due to the lack of healthcare and already worse health due to poverty in the reservations.
Now, could the natice american "race" dissapear? I don't think so, but it wouldn't strive either.
Natives who live outside of the reservations would be integrated with the local population. Natives themselves have a lower birth rate. The death rate is higher than the average in the reservations, so we might see a small grow but not for too long.
All this isn't considering what could happen in the future. Maybe there would be another economic crash and an increase in crime. Maybe there would be wide-spread working anti-drug programs. Maybe WW3 would happen and the human race itself will dissapear. There are many variables that can influence.
This is just a overview of the case for Native Americans in the US and Canada. I did not consider south american/mexcan natives.
I know we have some natives here on the booru. This whole post isn't releated to my kink, nor to bleaching at all. It's just a question i had for a while and just wanted to share what i foudn. I know many of you like stats (NERDS LMAO) and numbers (NERDS LMAO) just like me (NERD LOL). I know there are some weirdos who would get off to this post...
Any opinions?
