I must be the only idiot to think that education and money aren’t the issue in the black community. Two-parent households and stability would sort a lot of things out in a generation. Dreams, goals, ambitions, and opportunities follow from stability. Money doesn’t fix emotional vacuums.

This is not meant to be inflammatory. I’ve had many conversations with black men about this, they actually put the idea in my head.

It's true that having a two-parent household helps children's outcomes, but it's somewhat inflammatory to ignore the impact that targeted violence has had on black communities, or that simply pretending that didn't happen and that "they should just get their shit together" is a remotely compassionate stance.

It’s inflammatory to assume I intentionally ignore something and accused me of ignoring it.

Anything else I missed? Probably a lot, huh.
