 Most have been wage-earners instead of self-employed.
 Jobs reduced as product-making jobs decreased.
 African American women have less career mobility than African American men.

 Still, only 13 percentage of African Americans obtain a bachelor's degree, with even fewer pursuing higher degrees.
 There appear to be fewer job prospects for African American women  and they lack important work skills which also puts them at a disadvantage.
