So I'm thinking of making a youtube video about welfare, but I need to do some research, I see statistics pop up all the time about the distribution of welfare by race, but I can never find where they got their informaiton. I looked on Census.gov, but I can't find the information I'm looking for...google searches haven't been all that halepful...

I want to know the numbe of people who recieve welfare, by race, and how this has changed over time.

If anyone could help me out or point me in the right direction that would be awesome )
 

I found something once when I was working on a history project, but it was from 2005...I think the Bureau of Labor and Statistics was where I got it...did you google "welfare disbursements by race"??
 
yeah i tried that search first, and I found statistics, but no sources. I'll look at the BLS, thanks
