Free Speech TV: Black Radicals Cite Racism and Capitalism as Causes of Black Troubles

"Neither Dix nor West show the barest inclination to attribute black poverty, underachievement, or incarceration rates to the fact that some 70 percent of black American births today are to unwed mothers, a figure far surpassing that of other demographic groups. Unwed mothers, regardless of their race, are four times more likely to live in poverty than the average American; 85 percent of all black children in poverty live in single-parent, mother-child homes. No group can withstand such a calamitous breakdown of its family structure without experiencing devastating social consequences. But according to Dix and West, the fault lies entirely with America allegedly exploitative 'system', a system perpetuated, by their reasoning, by a continent teeming with racist whites."
