Abstract: This article explores the continuing decline in employment and labor force participation of nonenrolled Black men between the ages of 16 and 34 who have a high school education or less in the 1980s and 1990s. During the 1990s, employment rates among young and less-educated minority women--particularly African-Americans--increased quite dramatically. This increase is generally attributed to a combination of welfare reform policies, expansions of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), and other supports for working Pool: families, as well as every robust labor market during that time period.
