Seen this enough times, read about it countless more. There's a real culture problem in black America that nobody wants to acknowledge or talk about. I've seen plenty of black people succeed as first generation immigrants from other countries while black Americans fail. This is not a race issue - it's deeper than that.
It's be design. Destroy the nuclear family and get the fathers out of the household. BLM states this as an objective and it's been happing for at least 50 years.
I hear middle class black people describe situations everyone experiences as racism. Black privilege is never acknowledging anything that happens to you is ever your fault or just a normal negative interaction. It's always an example of racism.
A critical moment in history occurred in the 1960s. Whether the outcome was intentional or not is up for debate. But I think they knew the destruction they were wreaking.
The government went around in big cities and identified the single mother households. Then they herded them into low income housing, with large apartment buildings housing only single mother households. By default, all these kids grew up knowing only that type of life. They didn't have next door neighbors with a nuclear family and a successful dad. They didn't have role models for success and happy, functioning families. All they knew was poverty and misery. Naturally, it perpetuated itself.
In a perverted way desegregation also contributed to that situation. And no I'm not calling for segregation. The welfare state was/is bad for all races but it really hammered blacks.
