So what is it with this part of the black community/culture that has seen the Black family structure decline since the 1960’s? Why has the single motherhood rate gone from 9% in 1960 to 73% today? That kind of thing doesn’t ‘just happen’. Something very real is driving it. With all the progress thats been made in the civil rights movement etc, why is this crap happening? I dont get it.

My guess is that their philosophy of life changed from traditional “we gotta stick together- raise good children” to the free-wheelin hippie culture of personal hedonism, and serious mind bending drugs.

Some of the pop songs reflected this...Love Child by the Supremes begat Fire by Jimi Hendrix or Me and Mrs. Jones by Billy Paul....or Reefer Man( making fun of mj smokers) or Jitter Bug( alcohol use) by Calloway begat Psychedelic Shack or Cloud Nine by the Temptations.
Just maybe sayin’.....sure there are others factors..
