Older Blacks pay high price in recession
02/24/2010
by alyssa g
As compared to the general population, older African Americans have had to cut back more on medications and food and have struggled to keep up with mortgage payments, as reported by The Seattle Times. In other words, it’s a battle to keep that roof overhead and food on the table.
A survey by the AARP revealed these difficulties for Blacks who are established in their careers. But work experience and longevity didn’t protect them from layoffs, and twice as many lost a job or had a spouse laid off as compared to the rest of the population.
