Nowadays, about 70% of black babies are born out of wedlock. These kids don’t have a father, instead, their mom has a “baby daddy”, who for all she knows, is the “baby daddy” for some other girls’ kids too.

Also worth noting, that liberals sometimes blame the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow for the breakdown of the black family. Yet, black families were stronger during the days of segregation in some respects. Out of wedlock births only exploded in the black community, and throughout our society, since the ‘60s.

She makes some excellent points. People become what they think and blacks have been told they need the government to take care of them because they can't take care of themselves. Funny, because when I was growing up black families were strong, some of them stronger then other families. But that was before "the Great Society" when blacks were told they can't take care of themselves, and the government wouldn't pay if the husband lived in the house.

When I was growing up, I lived in a part of town where sick people lived. If you had a family member with asthma, or arthritis, or lung problems you lived there because it was up above the dust in the air and there was no irrigation. Black, Hispanic, white, indian all lived side by side and there was no difference in family structure or love or respect.

I’m black. My grandparents (on both sides) were married at a young age, and were together for over half a century. Only death could make them part.

Marriages in my parents’ generation didn’t fare as well, but in my generation, we’re all married and stable.
