Black to the Future | Full Measure

A stubborn issue being addressed around the country: the economic plight of black Americans. They are the poorest US racial group, less economically secure, and more dependent on government aid. Today we’re off to Rochester New York, a city with a large African American population where companies stepped up 50 years ago with a forward-thinking jobs plan. A half century later, we found some surprising insights on what happened to the best of intentions, and why more money isn’t the answer. Our cover story is: Black to the Future.
