'You Don’t Fully Realize How Big This Problem Is': Black Men Continue to Have the Highest Unemployment Rate, Costing the US Economy $50B a Year

The number of unemployed Black men in the U.S. has grown so much that it’s costing Black communities $50 billion in income every year, a study published last week revealed.

The study found that there’s an employment gap of about 1.4 million jobs between Black men and their Asian, Hispanic and white counterparts. Black men are absent from hundreds of thousands of jobs in part because they have a higher rate of being in prison, being killed or simply being looked over for positions, said Algernon Austin, who authored the study published by the Center for Economic and Policy Research.

That means they had jobs and now can't find a job. I wonder who do you blame if you're not hiring black people. My man had a job for over a decade. He was making a lil over 100k. He applies for the same type of job 4 times, got the interviews and didn't get the job. How is it you have over 10 years experience but you don't get the job? Is it skin color?

Need more black men to study STEM.

The private sector is a bytch for a black man.

That's why the government is our biggest employer. And now we have to compete for government jobs with foreigners.

Best bet. Find respected headhunter aka cac cosigner and pray for the best.

This is why us relying on professional liars, aka politicians, to come in and fix the problem is worthless. Under Democrats and Republicans, blacks, especially black men remain underemployed and at the bottom of the barrel economically. It's why I also get mad when these entertainers just give their wealth away instead of using that wealth to build businesses. we CANNOT afford to not build businesses and employ our own, especially in this global economy where knowledge is key
