And with black illegitimacy estimated at 70% then the rate of of illegitimacy and promiscuity must be incredibly worse after abortions are figured in. The black family has just been destroyed, far worse than the 60s when the rate was already like 25%.

The saddest of all is back before the dubious ‘Great Society’ blacks had a higher marriage rate and lower out of wedlock birthrate than whites.

IMO, it was because the black community was able to use shame to help make fellow community members responsible. A man that knocked up a woman and didn’t do right by her was looked down upon.

Shame is a useful thing. Too bad many people have none and are never reminded that they should be ashamed of themselves.

I’ve been using that specific term when posting on news sites; including but not limited to WaPo and WSJ.

The black family has been destroyed, as Daniel Patrick Moynihan, the last intelligent Democrat, pointed out in Congress in the 60s, when the black illegitimacy rate was 25%. He said that soon, the numbers would be much higher, therefore the expectation of marriage before childbearing was over for blacks.

Trouble is, at this point in time, white and hispanic illegitimacy rates are higher than black rates were then, and have been for some time. So it's all over but the profiteering by "wedding planners" and divorce lawyers.
