Mostly bogus statistic manipulation but this is racing through the black community-----The Worst States for Black People

Hmmm, they sorta missed black on black crime here......
The Worst States for Black People - The Root
Progress, the story of black America.
We started from the most bottom of bottoms (not having personhood) and worked our way up to the age of Obama, where we are leaps and bounds better than we were (hey, we have personhood now!) but are still struggling to make it to the middle, let alone to the top, of society’s heap. A lot of things are working against us, and a lot of it boils down to where we live.
Let’s face it. Some places are worse to be black in than others, and I’m not just talking historically racial quagmires like Mississippi. Racism and a weakened social safety net know no region. Wisconsin, Ohio and others have their bad points, which go beyond their lack of NBA championships.
Taking into account stats on education, health, incarceration rate, economics and general misery, these are some of the worst states for black people.
