Propelled by the prominence of First Lady Michelle Obama<\/strong> and newly minted Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor<\/strong>, 2009 has become the year of "multicultural" women. The U.S. is on the verge of experiencing the multicultural women’s century<\/p>\n

Already accounting for nearly a third of the women’s population, multicultural women (defined as women who do not identify themselves as non-Hispanic white) will be in the majority in a little more than 30 years.<\/strong> Barely 20 years from now, multicultural women will predominate among 25- to 44-year-old women. And by 2050, multicultural women will represent 51% of the female U.S. population.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Such population strength is leading to economic might. "Black, Latina, Asian-American<\/strong> and other multicultural women already wield buying power in excess of $1 trillion and are the primary decision-makers in the vast majority of their homes," said Tatjana Meerman, Publisher of Packaged Facts. "Multicultural women represent more than one-quarter of the buying power of all U.S. women." <\/p>\n
