With the sharp decline in immigrants from Mexico crossing the border following the 2009 recession and increased enforcement at the border, the recovery in construction has benefitted mostly native born Hispanic Americans. Of about 500,000 jobs created in the construction industry in 2014 about 315,000 went to Hispanics. The unemployment rate dropped by 5% for Hispanics in 2014, compared to less than 2.8% for blacks and 1.4% for whites, according to the Labor Department. Hispanics also took the biggest hit as the construction industry declined in 2009, the rebound is now reversing this. Hispanic employment has returned to pre-2009 recession levels in 2015.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
