Description: Who We Are: Blacks brings you the facts you need about the size and characteristics of this fast-growing and politically powerful minority. Its 11 chapters examine their attitudes (a new chapter), education, health, housing, income, labor force status, living arrangements, population, spending, time use, and wealth. In addition to detailed 2010 census counts of the numbers of blacks nationally and by state and metropolitan area, Who We Are: Blacks includes the latest socioeconomic data on the black population. It has detailed spending data for black households and the latest update on black household wealth including the impact of the Great Recession on black net worth, assets, and debt. Results from the American Time Use Survey can also be found here, profiling black time use and comparing it to the averages. Attitudinal data from the General Social Survey compare and contrast black attitudes with those of Asians, Hispanics, and whites on a whole range of issues.
Notes: Chiefly statistics.
