I love how they don't mention the race percentages of the population when they show the race percentages in the workforce. Isn't that extremely deceptive? It's basic math. If, for example, 60% of Americans are white and 15% are black.... you have to be clear about that when comparing employment. If you, for example, employee 80 percent of all available black people, that is a really high percentage OF (of being an operation of multiplication mathematically) of the 15% total. Then if whites are only employed at 50% OF their total 60% population.... it still looks like more whites are employed than blacks... and there are. But it is a lower percentage of their total populace. Sheesh.
