The numbers, released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), show that for white workers, 16 years and over, seasonally adjusted, the unemployment rate in October was 4.4% -- the same rate that it was for whites in September and August.
For blacks, 16 years and over, seasonally adjusted, the unemployment rate was 9.2% -- the same rate that it was in September, but down slightly from August’s rate of 9.5%.

Why work when they can make more money on unemployment?
Having a black president has been great for black people?
Who wants to hire them anyway.
Always gaming the system, don't want to work, show up late, drunk, hung over, high - entitled attitude, won't take criticism.
The ALL can work and get a free education but choose not too.
Got to love Affirmative Action !!!!!!
"..Why work when they can make more money on unemployment?"
There are certainly some who feel that way, but I'm sure there are plenty who would love to have a good job and be able to make a good life.
Maybe we conservatives can help to make that happen, instead of beating them down. An awful lot of people have given up on this dismal (democrat) economy after beating their brains out trying to get a job. Can you blame them?
If they're down in a hole, help them get out of it instead of spitting on them.
8:14 - I've helped a few out - only to have them screw me over.
I won't kick 'em when they're down - but I'm done helping them!
Both rates are extremely under stated . There are many more unemployed . Obama spin numbers.
7:53
That is exactly what employers have said about all y'all on the eastern shore - white/black and other.
See all the companies opening operations? Not!
They wouldn't be unemployed if they would learn how to talk and act in public and leave their attitudes at home.
thanks Obama
Welfare. Enough said.
