Aside from the well known fact that my "assertion" was the basis for the laws creation in the first place, heres a good study on the issue.
By taking advantage of the “natural experiment” created by the substantial interstate variation in the minimum wage between 1994 and 2010, and carefully controlling for labor market and demographic differences, the authors provide conclusive answers to the crucial policy question of whether wage mandates have a disparate impact on minority groups.

And while the large majority of those pushing for an increase in the minimum wage have good intentions, the results are terrible for African Americans. Much like rent controls, increasing the minimum wage reduces the price of discrimination by creating a surplus of laborers for employers to choose from.
listen, there's no reason to even bring this up as a thing. you know why? because making crumbs isnt better than not making crumbs living off of welfare. it really isnt.
So i would rather broke black folks get on welfare than to work 8 hours a day 5 days a week for crumbs, where they cant even really pay rent and dont get a flat tire. its a wrap. rents unpaid, lights going off. ....
see i'm not of the school of thought that says anything is better than nothing. naw bruh. BS is worse than nothing sometimes.
The truth is. minimum wage is not meant to save everyone or make everything all well. but it is ONE part of the whole.
STOP RACISM
RAISE MINIMUM WAGE
Give people their legit raises back since we're producing a lot more.
Develop more affordable housing(most people can't afford luxury condos/apts)
Make Junior Colleges tuition free, and state college tuition free.
even though i know they wont do #1, i still take 2, 3, 4, and 5. and it wont help all black folks but it will help a lot of us. i'll tell you that much.
