It helps if you actually read details of the study before commenting on 
it:

"The Paradox of Declining Female Happiness", page 14:

"Trends in happiness among blacks are examined in columns one and two. 
These data show that happiness has trended quite strongly upward for 
both female and male African-Americans, erasing about two-thirds of the 
large racial differences in subjective well-being that were evident in 
the early 1970s (Stevenson and Wolfers, 2008b)."
