TitleChanges in the Employment of Workers--Manufacturing and Mechanical Industries By Color: New Jersey 1910-1930, Statistics from The Negro Wage Earner of New Jersey.
DescriptionThis is a chart from a study done by Dr. Egerton Elliot Hall of the unequal distribution of employment across races, particularly concerning African Americans and white Americans throughout the 1910s through the early 1930s within New Jersey. During this time many African American migrants from Southern states were moving to the New Jersey area. Through this study Hall explores the effects of the unequal distribution of employment on various aspects of the lives of African Americans such as their health and education. This particular chart indicates the percent changes in employment in the manufacturing and mechanical industries by sex and race from 1910 to 1930.
