“With such a low barrier to getting a relatively well-paid job, you would think black youngsters would be joining in droves..” You would only think this if you believed that young black people are only interested in money, and that their decision not to join an institution that blacks have suffered at the hands of more than any other minority is not a moral judgement, but merely a calculation on material gain.
