Where are you seeing this? The
data I am seeing shows this for 2017:
Total population - 2,716,462
White - 1,416,081
Black or African American - 838,163
American Indian and Alaska Native - 24,401
Asian - 209,610
Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander - 2,642
Some other race - 308,582
And this for 2016:
Total population - 2,704,965
White - 1,371,051
Black or African American - 834,073
American Indian and Alaska Native - 21,313
Asian - 198,728
Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander - 3,619
Some other race - 356,784
A big increase in Whites and Asians, smaller increases for Blacks and American Indians/Islanders and a large loss for "Some other race".
