Is there a Black Mecca?
Atlanta added more African Americans than any other city in America and has been dubbed "The Black Mecca".
Marriage: Black and Interracial

Jail vs College: The Facts
More young Black men are actually going to college than jail.
Black and Middle Class
From 1974 to 2004, the median income fell 12% for Black men while rising 75% for Black women.
Black America: Not entirely African
According to DNA the average African American is 17-18% White.
Black America is no longer confined to the inner-city neighborhoods of urban areas. Therefore metropolitan statistics are the most accurate way to count the Black urban population. The black population exceeded 1,000,000 in 18 states and 500,000 in 20 states. African Americans were the largest minority group in 23 states in 2009, compared with 21 states in which Hispanics were the largest minority group. New York, California, and Illinois, held claim to the
largest Black populations. But due to rapid growth in the South, Florida, Texas, and Georgia, all currently have an African American population of about 3 million. Only New York still has more African Americans.
Georgia had the largest numerical increase in African American population growth between 2006 and 2007 (84,000), with Texas (62,000) and Florida (48,000) next.
