My point was folks cling to this canard that black parenthood in America was the same as whites prior to the entitlement programs

Nothing could be further from the truth

And I confessed I too fall into these traps of racial and cultural relativity as well

It clearly wasn’t the same, but the disparity in wedlock between blacks and whites back then isn’t even in the same universe as it is now...it was far, far closer back then, and it is borne out by statistics.

I simply didn’t think I or the other poster were falling into any kind of cultural relativity trap. We were speaking from the basis of the available statistics.
