Black Unemployment Leaps to 13%
BREITBART | 9/6/13 | John Nolte
While there was all kinds of bad news for everyone in the August employment and jobs numbers released Friday, the news was especially bad for black Americans. Out of every group listed in the Bureau of Labor Statistics report report (age, gender, race, etc.) the unemployment rate among blacks increased the most; almost a full half-point, from 12.6% to 13%.
This news is in line with a report released earlier this week that showed black homeownership levels are at an eighteen year low.
