TonyB06,
I think that there have been a very slow "recovery period" of strong Black families over the last 5-8 years (or so)...
More "educated Black men" are marrying "educated Black women" that foster a "middle to upper middle class" that support our children into the future...
In my opinion, I see that the "extended family" concept in these Black families are taking root when we have wayward family members that fail our children--apparently, the good, highly educated members are stepping in--albeit a small number of those families actually doing so...
However, I also see the stats worsening before it gets better--but those will be perceived, than actual stats... Maybe down-right miscalculated due to some systemic inherent discrimination that is on-going.
But it only takes a mustard seed to have enough faith things will change...
