(KMOV.com) About 12 people rallied outside the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Thursday to protest the racial disparity in employment in the St. Louis region.
White unemployment in the St. Louis area is 5.7 percent, African American unemployment is 14.1 percent. Organizers said they want the Fed to adopt policies focused on getting more people get back to work.
Its not easy getting a job, when you are qualified even when you look the part, one demonstrator said.
Organizers said the story of one attendee demonstrates the problem.
When you do get the job, its something to get you buy, but its not a livable wage, Ray Rounds said.
Rounds said he left a low paying job to go back to school at the Green Technology Training Program at St. Louis University.

A fast-moving four-alarm fire torched the rear porches of a three-story apartment building in Dorchester tonight, forcing a crowd of frightened residents out into the cold and leaving about 30 people homeless, a fire official said.
First arriving crews had heavy fire on the rear porches and so they went to the second alarm, and rapidly went to a third and a fourth, Boston Fire Department spokesman Steve MacDonald said. It just rolled sideways across the porches, which were all wooden.
Boston firefighters responded to multiple 911 calls reporting a porch fire on Washington Street at 7:05 p.m., MacDonald said.
Three brick buildings, which housed nine apartments, suffered an estimated $750,000 in damage, he said.
The fire was extinguished shortly before 8 p.m.. There were no reported injuries and about 30 people were displaced as a result of the fire, MacDonald said.
Fire officials are still investigating what sparked the blaze.

FINISHING touches are being made to a twostorey church extension that will create a busy community hub for parishioners.
Congregation members at St Andrews Church, in Linton Road, Oxford, raised more than 2m for the scheme, called the Jubilee Project.
It has been designed by Grove Street architecture firm MEB Design and will add a new hall, meeting spaces, youth rooms, creche, kitchen, caf area and offices.
The church gained planning permission in May 2012 and construction began in January 2014.
Our top stories
Committee members hope it will be ready for use by the end of this month.
Committee treasurer Andrew Downs said: The new building will enable us to do lots of things better than we previously could.
In particular, we want to open up to the wider community and encourage outside groups to use the facilities more. We are also excited about being able to do more for young people.
There is often an image of churches as stuffy places with ageing populations, but here we are trying to involve young people and include them in the leadership.

Russian priests here rotate in for yearlong stints, primarily to celebrate Mass for the workers on the Russian base, who number between 15 and 30 at a time. The priests also welcome any of the islands other inhabitants, about 100 in winter when temperatures can plunge to -13 Fahrenheit (-25 Celsius), and 500 in the still-chilly summer months.
The greyish clapboard church was first built in Russia from Siberian cedar planks treated to withstand the frosts and harsh wind. It was then disassembled and shipped log-by-log, like Lego blocks, to Antarctica, said Alejo Contreras, a Chilean Antarctic explorer who witnessed the construction and consecration in 2004. To protect it from strong winds, it is bound to the nearby rocky mountain with chains.
In the summer, tourists and the staff of the international stations brave strong winds to hike up here, leaving snowy, muddy boots at the entrance. Some pray in silence, standing or kneeling because there are no pews in the boxy interior, while others marvel at the gold-leaf iconostasis screen of icons painted with bearded saints and winged angels in vivid colors.
During Sunday service, Kirilov reads from the scriptures in Russian and sings in an angelic voice.

A Russian polar worker, as any other believer, wants spiritual support nearby, a church devoted to God, said Kirilov, who has a flowing salt-and-pepper beard and blue eyes tinted with gray.
Reaching the churchs pointed belfry requires climbing up a staircase and squeezing in through an attic-like, square hole. At most, three people, rubbing shoulders, can fit next to the heavy bells that pierce the snowy silence with a cacophonous and hypnotic sound similar to the clang of a railroad crossing.
At night the church is lit from below and becomes a beacon for ships crossing the South Sea.
Thank God for this gift to us, Kirilov said, adding that he wishes more than a handful of people would attend Sunday service.
