The New Jobless By ERIK ECKHOLM Poorly educated black men are becoming more disconnected from mainstream society, even as other groups make gains. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/20/national/20blackmen.html?th&emc=th .................. The report here is a heart breaker. I am sure that anyone who rides the subways has noticed fathers traveling with young children during the daytime. I assume, as is the case with a family in my own building, that these are unemployed fathers now caring for their young children while their wives work to support their families. We have made some steps forward in opening up employment for women and minorities once barred from the professions and higher level jobs. But far too many are now still caught in a trap of minimal pay jobs -- or none at all! -- "A war is just if there is no alternative, and the resort to arms is legitimate if they represent your last hope."
