p_r_natl

Returns the proportion of the U.S. population in six racial groups in a given
year. Group definitions necessarily follow those used by the Census Bureau in
its surname tables:<ul>
<li><code>white</code>: Non-Hispanic White alone</li>
<li><code>black</code>: Non-Hispanic Black alone</li>
<li><code>hisp</code>: Hispanic, any race</li>
<li><code>asian</code>: Non-Hispanic Asian, Native Hawaiian, or Pacific Islander alone</li>
<li><code>aian</code>: Non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native</li>
<li><code>other</code>: Non-Hispanic, two or more races, or other race</li>
</ul>

Bayesian models for accurately estimating conditional
distributions by race, using Bayesian Improved Surname Geocoding (BISG)
probability estimates of individual race. Implements the methods described
in McCartan, Fisher, Goldin, Ho and Imai (2025) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2025.2526695>.
