So are you saying we should have never passsed the 1964 Civil Rights Act and blacks could just keep packing chicken dinners on those long trips from Chicago to Miss.?
Thats a real stretch to say that that was the beginning of the decline of the black family.
I'm out there"in the hood"everyday and you know what I think is the problem?
The young men want to be playas.The young women are out for the good life consumerist nonsense they see on TV.The men are not getting the education needed to provide aforementioned items.The females get mad and go into their"these n***** ain't you know what"routine.The young men lash at at those" bitches and skanless hos"and the whole cycle gets perpetrated each generation.No trust,no love in the ghetto,baby.
I am very fond of most of these kids.Many have wonderful hearts and a determination to succeed against all odds.Yet most will never get it together with the nuclear family paradigm.They are carrying way too much emotional pain and scars from their pasts.
Hey,I'm white as can be but I can RELATE.I haven't had a stable relationship in all my 58 years!

Yes. That's what I'm saying. The legislative "solution" has proven to be no solution at all. Black culture was not helped by the Civil Rights Act, as this article proves. In fact, that legislation could actually be credited with DESTROYING black culture, or at least the motive for improving it.

Thats a real stretch to say that that was the beginning of the decline of the black family.

This article would seem to bear out that hypothesis.

I would say that if the young ladies actually put some demands on these men, for example - "I'm not sleeping with you until you get a job and keep it", it might turn the situation around.
