The Black Caucus

This is a good read 0n the failure of the blacks in Congress by Jonah Goldberg.

Here is a sample of the problem they have failed to address.

If you include blacks in prison or not seeking work — which conventional unemployment surveys don't — the jobless rate for black men in their 20s without a high school diploma is 72 percent. At the height of the economic boom in 2000 it was still about 65 percent, according to the New York Times. This is twice the rate of white dropouts and three times that of Latinos. A UC Berkeley researcher found that black dropouts in their late 20s are more likely to be in prison than working.
