I can't remember exactly where, but I think I actually read recently that -- once you correct for education levels earnings for black females and white females are nearly equal.I've heard that too. Another surprising statistic is that if you look at husband-wife families, blacks and white have almost equal average incomes. Even though black men tend to earn somewhat less than white men, married black women are much more likely to be in the workforce than are married white women. The "housewife" phenomenon is pretty much a white thing. My LIRR/NYCT blog |
