Biden Claims Administration Created Over Three Million Jobs for African Americans in Three and a Half Years

Sep 13, 2024, 05:08 PM

President Joe Biden recently stated that his administration has created over three million new jobs for African Americans in three and a half years. This remark, made during an African-American event, has sparked controversy due to the use of the term 'black jobs.' Critics have pointed out that former President Donald Trump faced significant backlash for using similar language. Biden's comment has led to accusations of hypocrisy from those who had previously condemned Trump's remarks. The President also mentioned that the next 'Black job' to be filled could be the President of the United States.
