    Does this title sound stupid to anyone else or just me? Like… the jobless rate is defined by unemployment… so what else would be keeping it at 20%? It’s not really saying anything at all.

      The title I would have used is:

      In South Africa, unemployment has remained high for the past two decades, with Black people facing the highest rates, and youth unemployment at an alarming 58%.

      However, Rule 1 says “Title must match the article headline”, and that info that I would have used is in the subtitle. But you’re not wrong.

        May I suggest putting that in the body instead of [South Africa]? That’s much more valuable information. Btw wasn’t critiquing you at all, I was critiquing the article headline.
