Here’s why the black unemployment rate hit a 16 ½-year low

..But how about when you break down the 4.3% unemployment rate by race? Two groups fall below the overall level — with the white unemployment rate at 3.7% and the Asian unemployment rate at 3.5%. Meanwhile, the Hispanic unemployment rate is 5.2% and the black unemployment rate is 7.5% — its lowest level since December 2000...

..Both Kolko and Shierholz say that a tightening labor market has benefited all workers, including African Americans, and increased the likelihood they’ll find jobs.

“We’re in a job market where job seekers have more of the power. Employers might turn some of their essential skill requirements into ‘nice to haves’ instead. This opens up opportunities to more people,” Kolko said.

“Workers across the board are benefiting from a tight labor market,” said Shierholz. “Employers know they have to offer decent pay and compensation packages in order to get and keep the workers they need, shifting bargaining power in a real fundamental sense toward workers.”...

This early, it would be a reflection on Obama.

Nope, Obama was a lame duck President. If you're going to credit the Obama years, credit is due to the GOP-controlled Congress.
You must have just emerged from a coma or something. Congress did nothing during Obama's tenure...except try to block everything he did.
 
The Alt Right looks particularly foolishness in this thread.

Black unemployment fell by 50% during Obama's admin.

Fact.

LOL. Just like clockwork. 8 years of shit and the instant it gets better Obama gets the credit. You libs are Moonies of a different flavor.
You are too ignorant to know that it takes 6 months to a year for a new Presidents policies to effect an issue such as unemployment. If it had gone down, you would have been blaming Obama.

Obama had 8 years of stagnation. Lib policies don't work.

Are you seriously pretending that somehow Trump managed to get unemployment down in 5 months? You're acting like this is a Ferrari with a strong engine, 0-60 in like 3 seconds and fucking amazing breaks. It's not, it's a fucking oil tanker 0-60 in 35 years and no breaks at all.
 
It's funny how much credit Trump is getting for doing nothing.

Something he did worked because we didn't end up in a depression.

Conservatives said that what caused the crash would grow the economy idiot.

Nothing? Then why are libs upset?

And exactly what are "libs" supposed to be upset about?
Not getting their way. It's what they do.

No, that would be you conservatives.. It's why we have the dipshit Gorusch on the court. And Its why the last 8 years conservatives in congress obstructed everything the president tried to do. Its why we had 9 investigations of Benghazi all saying nothing wrong was done.

So if you think what going on with Trump is because we so "libs" couldn't get our way then you are a:

Damn what a good picture of you, it may be a little too handsome though. You must be really bad off to lie so blatantly, I have yet to see a conservative riot, when I do I will not laugh at your stupidity. Sorry to laugh so hard at an evidently mentally handicapped "Oh should I say intellectually challenged" igmo. but real comedy is hard to find right now anywhere but in liberal orations and keystrokes.
 
Wow, all of a sudden after eight years the left wants to talk about real unemployment statistics six months into a republican administration. No surprises here.
