https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Alaska

According to the 2010 United States census, the racial composition of Alaska was the following:[5]

White: 66.7% (Non-Hispanic Whites: 64.1%)
Black 3.6%
Asian 5.4% ( Among, 0.3% Chinese, 0.2% Laotian, 0.2% Japanese, 0.1% Indian, 0.1% Vietnamese, 0.1% Thai)
American Indian or Alaskan Native 14.8%
Pacific Islander: 1.0% (0.7% Samoan, 0.1% Hawaiian, 0.1% Tongan)
Two or more races: 7.3%
Other races: 1.7
