That's the crux, and should have been the headline:

73 percent of black children are born outside marriage, compared with 53 percent of Latinos and 29 percent of whites

Not to excuse the 29%, but that's one gigantic skew.

Just wait a while. In a few years, that number will be much larger.

29 percent of whites... Not to excuse the 29%, but that's one gigantic skew.

However, that's not the whole story is it, because the subject here is actually unwed pregnancies.

The rest of the story would be the % of births AND ABORTIONS among whites.

It also would be interesting to see if there were any area where the higher % of births corresponded to a lower % of abortions.

Either way, it's a sad picture. I would venture a guess that if you include abortions (which you MUST include for an honest evaluation), you'd be around 50% or higher for whites.
