re: It had risen to 25 percent by 1965, when Daniel Patrick Moynihan wrote The Negro Family: The Case for National Action and was widely condemned as a racist.
No Democrat today would dare say what Daniel Patrick Moynihan said back in 1965. Back then political correctness existed, but nothing like today. Today he would be crucified.

Who would subject an individual race to such treatment that the very family structure is destroyed for many forever along with millions of lives.. ??
Trick question?
No.

As usual, Walter Williams is right on target. (My recollection is that the fall of the Black illegitimacy rate to 14% was in 1930 data, that by 1940 it had headed back up to 20%; but the basic thrust of his article involves undeniable reality.
Of course, the breakdown of the White family has also been progressing rapidly since the 1950s. Both breakdowns are the result of Leftist promotions of Egalitarian notions that people are interchangeable; that they are not individually responsible for the choices they make; that having to struggle to build a decent life is a grievance, not a necessity, etc..
We are either going to wake up to the demoralization of America, or we are on the ash heap or history.

Yup. They are aggressively trying to destroy marriage by redefining it and diminishing its value.

Indeed, remember how Dan Quayle was crucified, based on saying that Hollywood and TV were pushing unwed motherhood on a TV show as just another lifestyle choice????
Somebody wrote a book about certain things you aren’t allowed to say in America. This strikes me as one such subject, the rate of illegitimacy in America, and among minorities in particular.
The way liberals and political correctness has framed the debate, you are being hateful and critical of single mothers if you say things such as children are better off with a married mother and father.
You are hateful and bigoted based on their criteria, so that ends the discussion right there.

Moynihan himself would be backtracking the paper and claiming he just did it because it was his way into Congress where he could help those po’ black folks.

Moynihan was a liberal. Democrats today are neo-Marxists.

Cloward is rotting in Hell. i’m sure he’s not too happy about that.
Piven will be joining him there soon enough.

IMO this is the one definitive cause for the social problems in America today. It has been going on for years getting steadily worse. This is the root cause for Ferguson, Baltimore and every urban area - the riots, crime, anti-establishment movement (police), etc.
And there is nothing Congress can do, white people are ill equipped to even discuss it, only the black community can solve the problem - and they don’t even recognize it.

The democRAT party has failed the black family, and Republicans get the blame. Just like Baltimore, Detroit, Newark, DC, etc..
