Chicago's Unemployed
While unemployment in Chicago decreased throughout the 1990s, the unemployment rate for African Americans remained at least double the rate for whites and at least a third higher than the rate for Latinos. Unemployment was highest--more than 43 percent--among young African Americans. And some have turned to peddling. For more information, read " 'Steel Wheel' Salesmen Take on Chicago."
