"Racial discrimination in hiring and layoffs" is the main reason unemployment rates were higher for black Americans than for white Americans.
Answer: Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
The class of whites being the more privileged one and most government decisions and policies having been designed in their favor, it was easy for them to set up large businesses and fetch great profits.
The whites chose other white people to work on big and significant positions in their organizations. The blacks were not offered or were denied employment in organizations owned and run by whites and this led to an increased rate of unemployment among the blacks.
