This has already been alluded to, but these are just numbers of recipients. Not every recipient gets the same amount. On average, every little niglet in the household bumps up the recipient's SNAP amount by 160 dollars per month, and does not count as an extra recipient. 63% of black children are in single-parent households, while 24% of white children are (when leaving out beaners).By race EBT/Snap recipients breakdown as follows White: about 37 percent; African American: 26 percent; Hispanic: 16 percent; Asian: 3 percent; and Native American: about 2 percent. (About 16 percent of participants are categorized as “race unknown.”)
So yes, black Americans are disproportionately on SNAP/EBT by national demographics. The question is ... will you be happy to see fifteen million and four hundred twenty-nine thousand whites suffer so you can see the rest suffer?
The USDA does not report actual amount of SNAP paid out by ethnicity, but you can probably put two and two together here.
