What do you count as black? Having on, white, blood relative makes you mixed. What is white? Are Arabs black or white? How about Indians (from India)?

12% is what I've heard. I don't know how anyone would go about proving that it's more of less...

Who in the hell would think black population is only twelve percent. It more than that by a long shot.

according to the 2004 US Census there are 288,281,000 people in the US. 37,645,000 are black. That means 13.1% of the US population is Black, alone or in combination with another race. Data can be found at : www.census.gov
