520 "Black Stats-- a comprehensive guide filled with
contemporary facts and figures on African Americans-- is
an essential reference for anyone attempting to fathom the
complex state of our nation. With fascinating and often
surprising information on everything from incarceration
rates, lending practices, and the arts to marriage, voting
habits, and green jobs, the contextualized material in
this book will better attune readers to telling trends
while challenging commonly held, yet often misguided,
perceptions. A compilation that at once highlights
measures of incredible progress and enumerates the
disparate impacts of social policies and practices, this
book is a critical tool for advocates, educators, and
policy makers. Black Stats offers indispensable
information that is sure to enlighten discussions and
provoke debates about the quality of Black life in the
United States today-and help chart the path to a better
future. There are less than a quarter-million Black public
school teachers in the U.S.-- representing just 7 percent
of all teachers in public schools. Approximately half of
the Black population in the United States lives in
neighborhoods that have no White residents. In the five
years before the Great Recession, the number of Black-
owned businesses in the United States increased by 61
percent. A 2010 study found that 41 percent of Black youth
feel that rap music videos should be more political. There
are no Black owners or presidents of an NFL franchise
team. 78 percent of Black Americans live within 30 miles
of a coal-fired power plant, compared with 56 percent of
White Americans."--|cProvided by publisher.
