Bloomberg study finds that 94% of new corporate hires are 'people of color. (...) It’s an astonishing statistic that took the internet by storm: 94% of jobs created in 2021 went to racial minorities. It’s also completely untrue.
The percentage of new jobs that went to whites was likely about 46%, eight points below the 54% white makeup of companies’ existing workforces. That’s to be expected given demographic changes in the United States since the time that the currently-retiring baby boomer generation first entered the workforce.
Though Bloomberg spun the tale as a victory for Black Lives Matter, blacks benefited the least of any racial group from the slight decline in whites, according to the analysis. The percentage of black hires was up from the status quo by 1%, while Asians were up by 2%, and Hispanics were up by 4%. That’s also explained by demographics.
Dailywire then goes onto detail about the numbers and how Bloomberg jumped the gun in their fervor to claim an ideological victory.
Seconded. The Bloomberg article this is based on is trash, with bad mathematics justifying a clickbait headline. The Substack article, while good, is based on a false premise.

What I do like about the Substack was that leading causes of death by age group image: https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F2eff24ce-6a3f-41e8-b478-56374e152860_744x1200.jpeg
Interesting to see the main causes of death by age group displayed like that. I didn't know most deaths between 18-44 year olds was due to opioids. Alarming stuff.
