According to an October 7 article in the Chicago Tribune:
In August, the National Urban League's State of Black America 2012 report found that nearly all the economic gains that the black middle class made during the last 30 years have been wiped out by the economic downturn.
Thanks, Mr. President, for helping out the Black middle class. But don’t worry, they won’t abandon you. The gates are closed on the plantation run by the Democratic Party.
"The median annual household income for blacks declined by 11.1 percent (from $36,567 to $32,498) from June 2009 to June 2012, according to an analysis of Census Bureau data by Sentier Research. The decline for whites was 5.2 percent and for Hispanics 4.1 percent. Both groups started with higher incomes than blacks."
