Wages are still pretty stagnant and they’ve barely moved for the bottom third, many of which, are black.
Most of which are white out of sheer numbers.
White or black, you can't get a decent job with tattoos all over your neck face and arms. Poor people love tattoos. Bad choices.
That's just one facet of the problem.
I have friends with businesses that can't find enough help. When they do many of the people quit within weeks. These are jobs where they could learn and grow but they aren't immediate satisfaction jobs. Instant gratification.
That's just one facet of the problem.
There are many sociological issues related to this challenge and skin tone/racism is just part of the equation and that part is shrinking year after year.
People have to make good choices.
I had a white guy tatted up trying to win some remodeling business was doing. He drove up in jacked up F250 that he spent 70k on. Bad choices.
The guy that got the job wasn't the cheapest but he had no tattoos and a plain white pickup and was clean.
Good choices.
I know there's much more to the story but it starts pretty simply.

Personal accountability is a huge piece of improving their lives, no doubt about it.
