“The first edition of Who We Are: Blacks provides a comprehensive look at the characteristics of this fast-growing segment of the U.S. population. In addition to detailed estimates 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 data on black household wealth. Results from the American Time Use Survey are also presented, profiling black time use and comparing it to the averages. The substantial educational, employment, and economic gains made by blacks, documented in the pages of Who We Are: Blacks, are contrary to population perception, but the are of utmost important to policy makers and business leaders.”
