I have worked with Power Query before and thought there was a way to denormalize a table.

The original data is State and different ethnic groups as different columns with the rows with population for each ethnic group.

I would like the output to be three columns
State Ethnic group Population

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
Select state column, right click and from the context menu choose Unpivot other columns.
