I see there’s a desperate attempt to deny that that the high out of wedlock birthrate among blacks is a key reason why they have twice as high a poverty rate, and that’s because people like IM2 and Vine REFUSE to hold black people responsible in any way for their outcomes. It’s always got to be whites’ fault.
Coming up with examples of a black woman who had children out of wedlock and was still successful, or one who had children within marriage by failed due to encounters by some individual racists, doesn’t negate the fact: out-of-wedlock births are STRONGLY correlated with poverty.
In this study, it shows that the majority of children born outside marriage are in poverty, while a minority of children whose parents are married are (and regardless of race).
