Abstract
This is a chart from a study done by Dr. Egerton Elliot Hall of the unequal distribution of employment across races, particularly concerning African Americans and white Americans throughout the 1910s through the early 1930s within New Jersey. During this time many African American migrants from Southern states were moving to the New Jersey area. Through this study Hall explores the effects of the unequal distribution of employment on various aspects of the lives of African Americans such as their health and education. This particular chart demonstrates the changes in employment of African Americans in certain domestic and personal service roles including the following roles: barber, hairdresser, housekeeper, waiter, and janitor. The chart indicates a dramatic increase in most of these professions from 1910 to 1930. The information for this chart was taken from the Census of Occupations of the United States Bureau of the Census.
