Study: White males hit hardest by Georgia job losses
new study shows white males are bearing the burden of job losses in Georgia, contradicting conventional thought that minorities typically suffer more from unemployment during down economic times.
The study released by the Georgia Department of Labor on Tuesday examined joblessness among black men and women, and white men and women. It found the number of men of any race drawing unemployment insurance increasing 160 percent from December 2007 through May.
Among white males, it increased 211 percent, to 51,562 men. That’s compared to a 78.8 percent increase for black females — the smallest increase in unemployment benefit claims among any of the four groups studied.
The study links the male job losses to cuts in the construction and manufacturing industries

Clayton County, a thriving majority Black suburb of Atlanta, Georgia has got a huge problem. Clayton County School System is the first system in the United States in the last 40 years to lose its accreditation.
For those incapable of reading those last paragraphs clearly, in Pre-Obama America – a country that Black people repudiated on November 4, 2008 by a margin of 96-1 – Black people were able to have snipers put on a roof and point their weapons at recently fired white police officers.
This is not a joke. Black people, led by Sheriff Victor Hill in 2005, celebrated the “liberation” of Clayton County from white rule and into the worthy hands of Black people dominion.
But the celebratory moment in the land of Tara where Margaret Mitchell set her 1936 novel, ”Gone With the Wind,” has been all but eclipsed by the uproar over the new sheriff’s mass firing of 27 supervisors, deputies and correction officers, many of them white. They had been summoned by their new boss, Sheriff Victor Hill, to the Clayton County Jail on Monday under the pretext of being sworn in. Instead, they were relieved of their weapons, badges and official cars by armed colleagues and offered rides home in prisoner vans under the eyes of snipers posted on the roof.”

The FBI’s report of a double-digit rise in violent crime in Clayton County stings a community already reeling from lost school accreditation and a staggering foreclosure rate.
It also foreshadows a possible spiraling out of economic control.

Violent crime in Clayton rose by 21 percent in 2007 to 1,366 reports, up from 1,126 in 2006, according to the federal report.

It’s only one example of the reverse-race issue in America.
