Black Families

Allen West Reveals Shocking Statistics about Black Slavery Liberals Will NEVER Admit, by Allen West, 11/19/16

Liberals love to refer to the legacy of trans-Atlantic slavery when considering the problems ailing Black communities in America.

But Liberals will never tell you the statistics that blow a hole into their theory. Seventy-five per cent of children born to Black mothers are illegitimate. The breakdown of Black families continues to plague their communities, as per Allen B. West.

Other statistics Liberals have closed their ears to? Unemployment among Black youth is over fifty percent in certain cities across our country. Labor force participation rate has dropped significantly. In decades past, Black families have been led by two parents. In fact, in New York City in 1925, the vast majority (85 percent) of Black families had both parents.

But, over time, that number has dropped, and it’s effects are plain to see. This rate of unemployment has actually grown since the 1960s, while the labor force participation rate has dropped, as per CNS News.

It seems that something more complicated than the Black community being unable to re-bound from slavery is going on here.

Liberals have been calling those who point out this trend “racist” for a long time. In the 1960s, the illegitimacy in the Black community was only 20 percent, but some were already calling this an epidemic.

The Negro Family: The Case for National Action was published that decade, by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who was decried as a racist by all manner of folks.

Maybe, with Trump’s latest victory, the Democrats could learn to stop accusing and start listening? Calling ideas that fly against their narratives “racist” just isn’t going to work on most Americans anymore.

The root of the problem in Black communities, from poverty, to school performance, to frustrated youth, can be traced back to the absence of fathers in the family structure. This argument isn’t sexist either, its a simple math problem. A single parents has less time to devote to their child than couple do.

The impact of fatherless childhoods have an especially rough effect on Black boys, who might grow up unprepared to be a parent themselves. Many are able to pull themselves up to be great fathers– and these examples should be held up in Black communities as excellent standards all young men can aspire to.

It seems that something more complicated than the Black community being unable to re-bound from slavery is going on here.

The time for political correctness is over. We need to name the problem in the Black community and expect that our straight-forward President-Elect Trump will too! It’s time for Republicans to step in and halt the Democrat’s attempts to keep the Black communities reliant on government.

Growing up in the 1950s, I saw Black families as strong and thriving.  They tended to ban together to form Black Communities.  They had Black Colleges, Black neighborhood public schools, owned banks, owned businesses and went to church as families.

In the 1960s I saw the government takeover of healthcare, the war on poverty and welfare rules that made the Black families decline. I saw black families herded around to different parts of their cities and counties and I saw the Black economy destroyed. It might have been possible to end segregation in the South without throwing the baby out with the bathwater, but the disastrous results of government overreach could have been avoided without destroying the black economy.

I am suspicious of the government collusion with the chains and real estate developers I saw that replaced the black grocery stores, hardware stores, repair shops, car dealers, insurance companies, community banks, credit unions, medical offices and other businesses who were forced out by chain competition.
