The only troubling statistic I see is how often new threads on C-D crop up specifically pontificating about the ills of the black community. What, nothing else is on TV? Husband/Wife not putting out? I wouldnt be surprised if some of you derive sexual/personal satisfaction when speaking down on blacks (or in some cases, speaking ill about other blacks).
Did you know there are white , working single moms too? It's crazy.
Well a "superior " white guy( with divorced parents) just slaughtered 27 people soI suppose they have to draw away the attention that's getting...
This is profoundly offensive and effed up. Given the string of mass shootings of late, many could begin labeling White men as child killers, but that would be pretty effed up too. Right??
The black race is the only one where more females are employed than males. It is just one more very troubling statistic on the state of the black community. To me, it is crucial that we figure out why and work to fix it. I know I will get blasted for this but, I suspect it is a reflection that in other races families are more likely to be intact with two parents in the home when children are young and the mom isn't working. It's great we have strong black women but we also need strong black men who are working.

I don't see the problem. But if you're looking for a solution, the solution is that unemployed black men should go get a job.

ETA: Someone said the site was linking them to some work at home thing. I posted the chart a couple of posts below.
Its called a college education. A skilled trade. A specialized skill set. It's called a 90% high school and college graduation rate. It's called waiting until marriage before you have children. By the way, it is possible to have an intact family with both mom and dad working. I was raised in one. "Mom not working" isn't the answer to the problem of unemployed men.
I'm a black man. I'm unemployed.
How's it going, world?
