As I showed in the study of black youths, the racism they see is not imagined, it is real and tangible and still exist against them.
Your "study" showed absolutely nothing of the kind.
All it demonstrated was that a lot of young African Americans
perceive themselves as being victims of discrimination regardless of whether they actually are or not, and this leads them to do poorly in life. There is no evidence whatsoever to suggest that the discrimination you describe even exists in any meaningful sense, let alone that it plays a significant role in holding the Black Community back.
I have my explanation of the same phenom, your argument is to return to marriage being an economic necessity, resulting in higher female suicide and homicide.....
This argument is counter-factual nonsense.
Marriage Still Safest Place For Women And Children
Married, and even divorced, women and their children experience far less domestic violence on average than women who have never been married. Suicide rates for women, and single mothers, have also increased dramatically in recent decades.
Either way you want to look at it, marriage is usually better than single motherhood. It is more economically workable, and more socially workable.
rather than creating greater wage gains for women and men in lower quintiles.
The goal should be to lift impoverished people
out of the "lower quintiles," not make it more comfortable for them to languish there at tax payer expense.
We're telling you what the Black Community needs to do if it wants to be successful in elevating its circumstances. I'm sorry, but nothing about this is going to change simply because you happen to dislike the solutions put forward.
If African Americans are unwilling to do what is necessary to elevate themselves, they will remain in impoverished squallor. No one is going to rescue them from their own stupidity if they are too stubborn to change their own behavior for the better.
I'm sorry, but that's really all there is to say here.
You can "get with the program" like every other ethnic group in the United States has managed to do, or you can get out. :shrug:
And how much of this is because of the ever-growing abortion rate that has afflicted the Black Community over the course of the last several decades?
Sky-High Abortion Rates Among Blacks And Minorities Only Getting Worse
Aborting 25% or more of all African American pregnancies really isn't the solution you're looking for here; especially given the fact that it seems to be having no meaningful impact whatsoever on actually improving the black community's standing in American society.
The wellbeing of single-parent families is a vitally important issue for the United States.
Half or more of the children growing up in the U.S. today will spend some, and in some cases
all, of their childhood in a single-parent family.
This report compares U.S. single-parent families with single-parent families in 16 other
high-income countries. We find that U.S. single-parent families are the worst off. They have the
highest poverty rate. They have the highest rate of no health care coverage. They face the
stingiest income support system. They lack the paid-time-off-from-work entitlements that in
comparison countries make it easier for single parents to balance caregiving and jobholding.
They must wait longer than single parents in comparison countries for early childhood education
to begin. They have a low rate of child support receipt.
U.S. single parents have both above average employment rates and above average
poverty rates. High rates of low-wage employment combined with inadequate income support
explain the paradox of high poverty despite high employment.
The comparison high-income countries are Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada,
Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, and the United Kingdom (U.K.). These countries have a per capita gross national
income above $30,000 and a population of at least several million. Except when a data source
omits some of the comparison countries, we report on all of them.

Ah. I see. You're proposing that the American welfare system, and American tax payers, basically bankrupt themselves trying to subsidize the stupidity of lower class and minority women who willfully choose to have children out of wedlock, because you stubbornly insist that this behavior should be encouraged in spite of the problems it causes. :roll:
Frankly, I find it absolutely amazing that you expect anyone here to have sympathy for low income African Americans given how you've chosen to portray the community in your posts. You've basically reinforced every negative stereotype in the book.
You apparently believe that African Americans have the absolute right to behave like anti-social thugs, willfully fail to conform to American cultural standards, and have children they cannot support out of wedlock, with "whitey" footing the bill for the failures these behaviors inevitably result in every step of the way. You also seem to believe that anyone who so much as
attempts to give the slightest bit of constructive criticism regarding these attitudes is a "racist," responsible for holding blacks back.
Again, I hate to break to you man, but the real world simply doesn't work that way. :lol:
African Americans (or persons of any race, really) who are unwilling to put forth the effort necessary to elevate themselves can rot for all I care. I am under absolutely no obligation whatsoever to help someone who refuses to help themselves.
