Abstract: By investigating a range of group comparisons, ranging from educational attainment to city of residence, this report reveals that White people as a group always have better employment outcomes than similar Black people. The report investigated the following categories and found that White preferences persisted across them: veterans, people with disabilities, people who are formerly incarcerated, foreign-born people. All fare better in finding employment if they are White, and even when educational attainment, skills, and city of residence are the same, Black job-seekers do worse.
