In part, and I know there is some improvement, it is related to the out-of-wedlock births.
No father means no money, which means no books in the home, no quality family time if the mother is working, children raised by grandparents, etc.
It's also related to attitude: if you think your problems are caused by others - and your leaders continually reinforce that thought - you're not likely to get your butt to work and pull yourself up by the shoelaces.
"I am somebody" should be replaced by "I got a job"
