Jun 21 - African American Unemployment at 16 Percent

Problem is they just blk are just getting Discriminated against..... prejudice employers only hiring one race...

IF this was a fox news article it would say the 16 percent of black people dont want to work... then they would have thrown in something about welfare.

"blacks" weren't made to be equal in this system. produce.

yup

we've gotta create our own jobs and businesses

it's sad they most African Americans have adopted Eurocentric individualism....they need to be on their modern immigrant swag stacking money up together

Problem is they just blk are just getting Discriminated against..... prejudice employers only hiring one race...

biggest load of !!ing !! i have ever heard

i worked at a government center for 2 years where people came to apply for food stamps etc. and guess what? 99% of the people who came in were black and were completely capable of working, somehow they could afford $200-300 shoes, $100 shirts and expensive cards but not food? same with SSI.

a lot of them choose to cheat and leech from the government instead of working, same goes with illegal mexicans and white people but the majority is black people, this is 2011, black people work everywhere don't give me that bull!! because you can't find a high paying job that you really love, it's life.. most of us work !!ty jobs because thats life.

how do you think all these illegal mexicans are getting all these jobs? because they arent lazy[..] mother !!ers

because you can pay them a !!ty wage a day off the books.....the construction company expanding my condo only pays the workers $10 a day...these dudes are taking out walls, fixing aging pipes, and taking NO breaks.....they only reason the immigrants are taking these jobs is because the environment they used to live in was even worse

and most people on welfare are white so that argument is void as well

I'm not saying every employer is discriminating....but it's documented that many white employers would rather hire white employees

don't forget what country you live in....racism is alive and well because the majority doesn't want to deal with the problem and act like it doesn't exist

What are the percentages of blacks n whites on welfare....

What are the percentages of blacks n whites on welfare....

There are more whites on welfare than blacks but percentage-wise there are more blacks on welfare than whites. It's also important to note that 24.7% of the black race lives below poverty line while only 8.6% of the white race does (as is stated here ).

The countless whites who whimper about blacks on welfare as if it's a black-only program when 1.) there are plenty of whites on welfare and whites have always been welfare recipients in the U.S.; 2.) for the majority of its existence, welfare has been a white-only program. Hate to burst bubbles but welfare was created for solely whites. News flash: blacks were denied all their rights 35 years ago and prior. One of those rights was access to welfare. It was only by the end of a grisly African American Civil Rights Movement did poverty-stricken African Americans finally become eligible for welfare along with whites. Thanks to African Americans fighting for the equal rights of all minorities, all poverty-stricken racial groups became eligible for welfare. [source: ]; 3.) even if welfare were a black-only program, whites would STILL be unjustified to whimper about it. If that were the case, it ought to be regarded as a small reparation for the 5 century long era of anti-black atrocities that ended 35 years ago. It's as a result of that era that so many African Americans are impoverished. The entire African American community had to start out at the bare bottom and work their way up from scratch. In addition, it ought to be regarded as a small measure taken in respect to white privilege. (What are whites even doing on welfare considering white privilege and the fact that they weren't enslaved from the 1500s to 1865, legally discriminated against from 1865 through the 1970s, then separated from society's wealth in white flight)? News flash: today's elderly blacks were treated like garbage and denied all their rights 35 years ago (that includes most jobs; all decent jobs; all decent salaries); consequently leaving today's middle-aged blacks to start out impoverished, much like most of today's younger black generation. Besides that, blacks have been doing the dirty work of whites for the vast majority of their time spent in the U.S., while receiving nothing but racial abuse from whites in return. 3.) middle-class African Americans like myself pay taxes and aren't entitled to welfare even after wrestling our way out of poverty-stricken lifestyles whites have placed us in and we're not whimpering about paying taxes everywhere you turn around like the white community is 4.) despite the fact that middle-class African Americans pay taxes, they receive no credit for paying taxes as the majority of whites whimper about it as if they're the only people who pay taxes and aiding all blacks and only blacks -- Much like affirmative action, welfare is in no way reparation for the black race like whites treat it as. Hell, it's not even treated as reparation by whites, but worse: preferential treatment that solely blacks get over all races. The white race hasn't done squat to make up for the era of anti-black atrocities. The only thing they've done is whimper AS IF they've done far more than enough. In addition to working for the white race with repayment of mistreatment, impoverishment, and zero reparations, blacks additionally have to deal with baseless welfare whimpering from whites.

who cares... black, white, yellow it don't matter. my girl and i just relocated and within a week she found a decent paying management job with no college degree. if you're unemployed it's cause you're !!in lazy.
