Shutdown effects on Black America African-Americans make up a higher percentage of federal workers than they do of the non-government workforce. For generations, government work has provided good wages and job security to African-Americans who faced more overt discrimination in private sector jobs. As the shutdown has reached the 1-month mark, the disparities are clear according to the Census Bureau, for every $100 in white family wealth, black families have just over $5. So what does that mean when black government workers start missing a paycheck? The profound racial wealth gap in the U.S. makes it far more difficult for the average black American to sustain a long period without a paycheck, as compared with white Americans. Overall, black Americans are less likely to have friends, family, networks, access to credit, you name it. Things that will help you survive a period without a paycheck, Blacks are less likely to have it. So, where does this leave African-American government workers, now that they have little to no means of support to survive this shutdown? |

Trump-gate: Shutdowns and Spy Allegations To date, 800,000 federal government employees sit as hostages in Donald Trump’s attempt to secure over $5 Billion for what he called a wall and then a barrier, that he believes will secure the US southern borders. In the midst of the back and forth between the Republican and Democratic parties, millions of people have gone without a paycheck since late December, and are unable to pay for food, medications, childcare, mortgages and rent, etc. - leaving them to face illnesses, homelessness and even death. While the federal government remains shutdown, new allegations have surfaced - a new FBI investigation which implicates Donald Trump as working for Russia by providing US secrets. Many may be surprised at these new allegations, where others feel the writing has been on the wall through the tweets, rallies, and press conferences.
