TAPPED Archive: Say Hello to the New Permanent Underclass - percentage of children in low-income and poor families by race/ethnicity, 2009.

How insane is it that “American Indian” is higher than “Hispanic” on the “Poor” bar?

Not that it’s a bad/good thing. Because hello, look at the lowness of the “White” bar.

What I’m saying is, it’s a shame that the numbers for American Indian are so high, and yet they’re getting the least amount of press out of all of these racial categories.
