Daniel Moynihan sounded the alarm about the fatherless black families back when Lyndon Johnson was President and the Democrats were in power. The dangerous percentage was 24-25%.
Johnson started to move in the direction of correcting this legislatively but his Party rebelled with cries of,”Don’t blame the victim”. (Paul Ryan). This was in 1965.
Today the black percentage is 78%...but the white percentage is close to the warning of 25%. So instead of fixing the black problem we infected the white families.
The total of both is 50 million citizens living in fatherless worlds.
To me this is our main social problem and it shows in the schools.
I think you are right that fatherless homes are the biggest part of the problem. Can you say father any more?
“I'll have them niggers voting Democratic for the next two hundred years. [Said to two governors regarding the Civil Rights Act of 1964, according to then-Air Force One steward Robert MacMillan]” ― Lyndon B. Johnson
