Despite what you believe, government is necessary for a stable society. Anarcho-capitalism can't work in the real world, precisely because of wealth and income disparity. Equal protection would disappear
People born into generational poverty usually have needs. If earlier generations had not experienced discrimination and were allowed to peacefully assimilate into white American society, then perhaps the need would not exist to the extent that it does today.
However, racism persists even until this very day. Shall we have yet another generation born into poverty and perhaps even another after that.
I believe that the care needed will always be insufficient when it comes to actual community requirements and the degree of problem solving received from whites.
African-Americans need to look more introspectively in order to solve their own problems.
If I push you overboard at sea, then you should not look for me to throw you a life jacket!

Another science-denier who doesn't believe in the evolutionary process, and believes artificial stopgaps have to intervene. /SMH
This experiment showed what most everyone already knows: White people are pushovers. The fact that 80 percent agreed to pay the inflated price shows how easily White people will allow themselves to be stepped on for others' gains. I would say it was sad but we've all seen it too often to even be surprised anymore. White people have become neutered.
Your point that white people "are pushovers" is true only in the sense that all people are follwers and look to others for guidance and leadership. Once we've become sufficiently primed with propaganda and BS, it suddenly becomes easier to select a leader or person of influence and we then group-identify.

Im not seeing "whitey" holding a gun to Black folks' heads and forcing them to have a 72% unwed birth rate.

Why use "whitey" as a term of polarization, before we've had dialogue?
You seem to have analyzed the situation thoroughly enough to exactly state the source of the problem.
So the fact that the African-American family has always typically been weak, then that has nothing to do with slavery, the lack of culture, lack of family structure, and lack of culture, all due to failure to successfully assimilate within a racist society has absoutely nothing to with their existing societal problems.
So that would necessarily mean that all external forces outside their community are merely of an innocuous nature and should have very little or no effect upon their quality of life or their inability to develop strong familial bonds.

It doesn't. At all. That's why Blacks' unwed birth rate was significantly lower decades ago, closer to the time of slavery.
