What a hack!!Unemployment in 1933 sttod at 24.9%. In April it was 5%.
In response to:

“The chronic near Great Depression levels of unemployment, not to mention rampant job discrimination, endemic failing public schools, and stigma of a criminal record virtually condemn many young black men to wear the tag of societal failures as men and fathers.”

Perhaps Hutchinson was referring to the following data.

“young Afro Americans” 35.7% unemployment rate in January 2008
Overall 9.2% for blacks in January 2008, compared to 4.4% for whites
