NAACP says Florida isn't safe for black people. Black unemployment in Florida is 3.8% in New York 8.3%, California 7.5%, Illinois 10.9%

[DigitalDrifter]

If it isn't safe, why is there a much higher percentage employed than in liberal utopias?

Wouldn't it be fair to say, a place that was unwelcoming and or dangerous for black people, would have a high black unemployment rate?

Economic Indicators State unemployment by race and ethnicity​

The fourth quarter of 2022 saw an overall strong labor market with slowing inflation and steady job growth. However, stubborn racial disparities in employment rates persisted in many states. With no indication from the Fed of a reduced pace of rate hikes until at least 2024, it will be important to monitor whether the fight against inflation results in casualties in communities with higher unemployment.

The fourth-quarter labor market remained strong overall, though persistent racial employment gaps have yet to close​

By Kyle K. Moore

EPI analyzes national and state unemployment rates by race and ethnicity, and racial/ethnic unemployment rate gaps on a quarterly basis to generate a consistent sample to create reliable and precise estimates of unemployment rates by race and ethnicity at the state level.

We report estimates for all states and subgroups, flagging those for which constructed unemployment rates are heavily weighted by national-level data with an asterisk (*) (see Methodological note). The following analysis contains data on the fourth quarter of 2022.

In fact, ironically, if you click on each state, you'll see Florida has one of the lowest black unemployment rates.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

D.C. has a huge black population, their rate is 9.8%.

So, Florida isn't safe because of employment? You got a screw loose.

From Its inception, the NAACP has been infected with ultra liberal ideologues who don't really give a shit about Black people at all. All they want to do is badmouth Republicans and anyone who does not agree with their Communist bullshit. They started to go wacky in the 1960s when the Black Panthers were trying to kill White cops. Angela Davis was one of their
Communist wackos.

You say the civil war has started.
I know what side of the civil war you are on. The same side as the confederates in our first civil war.

In Florida, they do not teach about slavery, the cause of our first civil war. They do not want sensitive white kids to feel bad that their white ancestors enslaved blacks.

NAACP leader Leon Russell, 73 has lived in Tampa Florida for most of his adult life. The NAACP leadership apparently enjoys vacations in Florida just like the rest of the freaking world.

NAACP says Florida isn't safe for black people.​

Who cares what they think? They are just another racist organization promoting racism. If black people suddenly all got along with white people, they'd all be out of a job. Even their name is racist. By saying colored people, they are really including ALL minorities of color yet only serve blacks.

Think about it. If your state was unwelcoming and not safe for a certain race, why would they turn around and hire the people you claim are being discriminated against?

There's literally only two states with lower rates.

Looks like MSNBC pulled the wool over your eyes about Florida banning slavery being taught in Florida schools. They did not ban it.

Bullshit. Florida requires the teaching of Black history in it's schools what they don't want is CRT garbage.

Nothing makes one less safe and more decimated spiritually than being unemployed. Take it from me.
