Voters have twice elected a black president, African Americans shine among Hollywood’s brightest stars, and the number of blacks who graduate from college has tripled. . But this stubborn fact remains: The African American jobless rate is about twice that of whites, a disparity that has barely budged since the government began tracking the data in 1972. [B]In last week’s jobs report, the black unemployment rate was 13.2 percent, while the white rate stood at 6.8 percent.[/B] [...] Recent research also shows immigrants have active networks that help new arrivals navigate the country, and trading information about jobs is an important part of that. That is one reason that Hispanics — more than a third of whom are foreign born — have lower jobless rates than African Americans despite, on average, having fewer educational credentials.
