I can only assume that certain jobs such as professional athlete are not included because so few people have that job as a percentage of the population.

"News analysts, reporters and correspondents—1.8%"

Unexpected racism.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Residential advisors—29.6%

huh?

[Maine Mariner]

Such a small % of African-American farmers yet there seemed so many that were part of the lawsuit against the Department of Agriculture.

[FormerACLUmember]

News analysts, reporters and correspondents—1.8%

Yeah, just check out any of the corrupt Regime Media, from CNN to The NY Times to MSNBC, ad nauseum.

[Julia H.]

Good for all of these people, no matter how much esteem others place on their jobs. They’re not falling for socialists’ scheme to keep black people unemployed and dependent.

[DryFly]

Who cares? Blacks should be becoming an irrelevant minority in this country. Many more Hispanics, many more Asians, etc. All with far less bitching and moaning. Their time has come and gone. Billions in handouts and so little to show for it. Move on.

There are some occupations that have very few women working in them. (There is a definate difference between men and women)

There are very few women engineers, programmers and electronic techs. That is in a way odd, most men are color blind to some degree and electronics techs need to be able to use color to read resistor coding. When it comes to dexterity and perception of things like color and design women have the edge. Men have the edge where physical strength, stamina and endurance are concerned.

There are always exceptions.

Why is this important? Men and women are not the same physically or mentally. Some ethnic groups have advantages and disadvantages along the same lines.

Why? I am not sure.

9. Millwrights—2.1%

America would be a much better place if we had more African-American Millwrights...

Whats a Millwright?

[Cyber Liberty]

3. Residential advisors—29.6%

That's an "occupation?"

[screaminsunshine]

Professional Welfare Recipients...46.9%

Professional Democrat voters 92.6%

I can only assume that certain jobs such as professional athlete are not included because so few people have that job as a percentage of the population.

I was thinking the survey's purpose is more to stir up Democrat votes by continuing to stir the pot of racism. If the survey listed professional athletes, it wouldn't generate much angst.

I guess the low % of black journalists (and journolisters) proves the old, old white liberal adage,

“afrrirmative action for thee, but not for me!”

[RegulatorCountry]

I suppose these aren’t large enough categories to make the cut, but any job requiring the ability to endure heat has a much higher percentage. The employees of a local brick manufacturer who work with the kilns are overwhelmingly black, and it’s not a low-paying job. Roofer used to be, now it’s largely hispanic immigrant.

[Ditter]

I am an artist and I don’t remember ever having a black person in any of my classes or workshops. Interesting I never noticed that. They are wrong about the lack of black farmers/ranchers. Texas has lots of black cowboys and farmers. Maybe they are employees and not land owners but there are lots of them particularly along the Gulf Coast.

Community Organizer did not make the list?

[jimmygrace]

Blacks in the
NBA - 82%
NFL - 70%
MLB - 9%

Time to lace up them skates, Jesse!

[Eldon Tyrell]

Be interesting to see if - in fields requireing technical skill - the difference between government employed and private employed.

[dfwgator]

I figured “Professional Basketball Player” would top the list of percentage of blacks.
