“A new study released by Vanderbilt Universitys law and economics professor, Dr. Joni Hersch, just verifies what so many of us in the so-called “minority” communities have known all along - the color of a persons skin affects their earning power.
Dr. Hersch specifically focused on legal immigrants. She studied data from 2,084 men and women who participated in the 2003 New Immigrant Survey. An interviewer reported the person’s skin color using an 11-point scale where 0 represented the absence of color and 10 represented the darkest possible skin color.”
