I NEED MY JOB

It's not just that a greater share of African Americans are out of work. It's also that they continue to seek jobs for longer than whites do. Last month, the unemployment rate for white Americans was 5.4 percent. For black Americans, it was more than twice that, at 11.5, the numbers are down from 13.5 percent about the same time last year. Unemployment in the African American community remain in the double digits, causing alarm among some civil rights leaders. 

African-American women are the only demographic in the United States whose unemployment rate has not improved over the past year, according to a National Women's Law Center analysis of the latest jobs data.
