I do agree with your minimizing blue collar thesis. Skilled blue-collar jobs disappearing is one reason, IMO, that young black men have a hard time getting work.
And a man w/o a job just isn't an attractive candidate for marriage and family formation. Not saying that he has to be balling, but at least contribute to the household.
I'm speaking from a virtual invisible minority perspective here -- California's black population is only 7 percent.

Very good points! I didn't know that CALI's black population was as low as 7%! I guess that makes sense, though...but still
