Here are some updates from Census 2010 using data from Summary File 2 & Summary File 1:

Top 25 ethnic, racial, tribal, etc groups released so far. The Census has yet to release data for people of European, Arab/Middle Eastern, Sub-Saharan African and West Indian origins.

Color Codes:
Native American
Pacific Islander
Asian
Black or African American
Hispanic or Latino
N.E.C. = Not elsewhere classified

Hawaii - recently included Okinawan & Chuukese (both of which are much larger than the numbers indicate). Most people of Chuukese, Kosraean, Pohnpeian and Yapese origins generally choose the term Micronesian (country name is Federated States of Micronesia) & a large share of the Japanese population in Hawaii are Okinawan.
