Marriage and divorce: patterns by gender, race, and educational attainment : Monthly Labor Review: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
Data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 is used to examine marriage and divorce patterns and their relationship to educational attainment for young baby boomers from age 15 to 46.www.bls.gov
Educated cohorts divorce far less, unsurprisingly. You'll have to pull the raw data and do your own math to get comparisons by both ethnicity and education.
Also this one is good:
The Growing Racial and Ethnic Divide in U.S. Marriage Patterns
The United States shows striking racial and ethnic differences in marriage patterns. Compared to both white and Hispanic women, black women marry later in life, are less likely to marry at all, and have higher rates of marital instability.Kelly Raley, ...

The article Captain Suave posted is proof enough. They have several individual statistical comparisons based on race. Except the "Educated" categories do not pertain to race at all. it's just "Educational attainment".
Because most normal, scientific minded humans, don't buy into racial deficiencies as if they are fucking dog breeds.

do you have any statistic segregating divorce rate by race and education level?All i see online is one OR (Exclusive) the other.
I can see divorce rates by race, i can see divorce rate by education level, but I cant find both nicely and definitive and say here "blacks college level have a 30% divorce rate".
Can you find the data to show your point?

differences in marriage also means that the are a lot more black college educated women who never found a man, not that they divorce it.
Look it should very simple to get a number,
what is the divorce rate of asian college educated females? _____
what is the divorce rate of white college educated females? _____
what is the divorce rate of black college educated females? _____
what is the divorce rate of hispanic college educated females? _____
Just fill out the blank and the source to your data.
Counselor that is your argument, can you put numbers behind your arguments?

On the next paragraphs of your snip "A shortage of marriageable men may be part of the explanation for low marriage rates among better-educated black women, "
I am not denying that college educated black women marry at a lower rate then white ones. The data is clear on that.
I am asking for the data on divorce, which is the argument in hand.

Why do these studies only focus on women?

Kim’s research raises questions as to why African-American women’s higher education does not have a strong marriage protective effect.
“African-American women don’t seem to enjoy the same degree of protection that education confers on marriage,” says Jeounghee Kim, assistant professor at Rutgers University’s School of Social Work.
“For white Americans, higher education is related to a lower chance of divorce, and this protective effect of education on marriage increased consistently among the recent generations. But for African-American women, higher education is not necessarily related to a lower chance of divorce.”

It makes sense that second marriages are more likely to break up than first. A lot of the people who are capable of living with someone never make it to their second marriage, let alone their third. People who are twice divorced and want to get married a third time are probably nuts.
