This is interesting data that may well point to the source of that spark:
New study finds 92 percent of African American male teens are unemployed. Restless young males in need of something to do. This is to the coming second Civil War what the millions of young Chinese males (whose female counterparts were aborted for the last 40 years) are to the World War III that is about to come upon us on a worldwide scale. Spencer spoke of this. They will be here - and just doing the job they were told to do......
CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
Startling new figures about the state of our economy have recently come out.
Ninety-two percent of African American male teenagers in Chicago don't have a job.
A trend that continues to head in the wrong direction, for white and Hispanic teens, too.
The jobs catastrophe here is far worse than the national average.
These shocking numbers released by the Chicago Urban League are one more grim result of Illinois having 600,000 fewer jobs today than we did in the year 2000. Work that teens traditionally did, from delivering newspapers to flipping burgers, is now done by adults desperate for any income.
High school senior Dvante King is one of the lucky ones. He actually found two on-and-off part-time jobs last year. Combined, he earned less than a thousand dollars.
However, he was part of the eight percent of African-American male teens in Chicago who did find legitimate work; 92 percent of those age 16-19 were unemployed.
"It's a very shocking number. Like, if anybody else see them numbers, hopefully they'll come together, like we need do something," King said.
