colleges to build a workforce that reflects the community.
"We have heard way too many stories from generations past of

hard hats on that project, doing the good paying jobs, don't look like
they came from anywhere near the neighborhood," Buttigieg said.

He is speaking of generations ago, that problem was solved in the early seventies when labor unions were required to take in as many new black
members as white members.
