Blacks had the lowest divorce rates in the country during that time. The government went in and destroyed the nuclear family, and now we see the end result.

LBJ's Great Society destroyed the black community. Intentionally.

This has been Thomas Sowell argument since forever. Unfortunately people would rather listen to Hollywood stars about their politics, culture and social issues than one of the most brilliant minds that graced the last decades.

TBH, I enjoyed all the respectable clothing. Didn’t have to see a guys butt hanging out bc his pants drooped down to his knees.

African Americans back then had intact families, stable jobs, and a culture they were proud of. Some of the most iconic black music back then were enjoyed by people of all colors. An example would be I don't want to set the world on fire by the Inkblots. Such a good song!

What happened to our major cities? We must get back to law and order. Criminals need to understand that they will not get away with committing crimes and there will be stiff consequences. Follow if you agree.
