Abstract:

Due to expansion of industry and business, North Carolina is one of the fastest growing states in the country. African Americans represent about 25% of North Carolina's population, and 21% of the labor force. At the time, African American unemployment rates are higher given the limits of certain educational and cultural opportunities in the past. However, African Americans are moving beyond the constraints of certain job categories.
