WASHINGTON, D.C.–(ENEWSPF)–January 21, 2011. The Center for American Progress released a report today entitled “The State of Communities of Color in the U.S. Economy” outlining how U.S. households in general, but communities of color in particular, were severely hurt by the recession. According to the authors, communities of color experienced larger losses than whites and will have to climb out of a deeper hole to regain the level of economic security they had before the crisis as the economic recovery deepens and the labor market recovers.
