Unfortunetly race does indeed still matter for the States as a whole. Now, thats not to say ever single person is racist as that is far from the truth but lets have a small look at the income levels of different races. http://www.census.gov/compendia/statab/2011/tables/11s0689.pdf look at the difference in thoose that make less than 15k now look over at the median income between black and whites. That is a huge difference it shows race is still a problem on at least this level. Why are there such big differences among the different races in pay? |
....Because education among blacks is worse, and education heavily correlates with ones' income and pay inequality?
The table you show proves this assumption. Education among blacks was on the rise until the past 10 years, which has been stagnant (also the same can be said for whites), which was also when they had the lowest percentage of people making under $15,000 per year.
The issue is more of a cultural issue than a racial one. Some cultures breed educational problems, mostly caused by horrible government educational systems (e.g. forced districting to failing schools) and bad parenting, spurred by the proliferation of single parents.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
