Just when you think people can't get any dumber this gem shows up.
People in 2023 are having relationship problems because of slavery over 150 years ago.. LOL!!!
The African-American family was doing almost as well as everyone else in 1950. How insane do you have to be to think the single motherhood rate went from 20% to 80% between 1950 and today because of slavery...
You’re right .. 150 years. It’s a few generations. And you think abuse and demoralization and the horror of things just ended at the end of the Civil War? It was over and black folks walk off the plantations and into a good job and a nice home and a picket fence?
You think Jim Crow didn’t play a role in this? You think the complete lack of Civil Rights and the most basic of human decency impacted black life not at all?
”the African-American family was doing almost as well as everyone else in 1950”?
This may be the single dumbest thing ever written on LRC.
In 1950 80% of black kids had 2 parents.
Today it's 20%.
Virtually ALL of the problems facing the black community stem from this.
The richest town in Alabama is probably an easy guess for most people who live in the state, but you may not know that it is the second-wealthiest area in the South and has one of the lowest poverty rates in the country. Moun...
Boasting that “Europeans ended slavery” is equivalent to bragging that you stop beating your wife. So what, you want a prize?
Chattel slavery disappeared with the rise of Catholicism in Europe after the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire, so I think your equivalency is not quite right at least for that era. Perhaps you were responding to the previous poster's claim that Europeans (Wilberforce, et al. ???) ended slavery.
What are you talking about? Every kid learns about slavery when attending American schools? Nowdays, liberals and AA's are trying to teach kids that ALL white kids are guilty simply because of their "whiteness". It's left wing BS...

Liberals are painfully ignorant. They've been told by the media that CRT isn't taught in schools so they believe it. They will believe ANYTHING the media tells them and they won't question it. Like strapping masks onto 3 year olds as if they will be even remotely effective.
