Let's see. Black unemployment in 2017 was the lowest it has even been. The Dec 2017 month was the lowest it has ever been recorded. It jumped almost a point in a month (how did that happen?) but it is still relatively really low but hey let's ***** anyway.

Oh BTW, who do you think is more in favor of outsourcing jobs and bringing in low paid scabs like H1B workers from foreign countries? Hillary or Trump?

You notice it was going down and down during Obama's reign?

I see a total of 14 upticks on that graph, which does not include the entirety of the Obama administration

I noticed that Obama took over a little after the start of the 2008 crash and black unemployment went up for the first year or two when he was in office and that it dropped after that including after when Trump was sworn in. That tells me that it doesn't really matter who is "in charge" of the economy unless they do something completely insane.

Yeah. Little up and downs but the general trend is downward.

Exactly Xoo. Not everything that occurs in the economy is the President's doing. So i don't know why Trump was taking credit for it. Credit should go to former Fed Reserve chair, Janet Yellen.

I don't really give credit to anybody for the economy good or bad.

Some headlines say black unemployment is low some say it’s high. I think the real indicator is education and home ownership. I want to see more blacks purchasing homes and more graduating college.
