Black people must ignore the liberal agenda that suggests that we must await government money before measures can be taken to improve the tragic living conditions in so many of our urban communities. dailysign.al/2OSstKQ via @WE_Williams @DailySignal
@WE_Williams @DailySignal "The black family, which had survived centuries of slavery and discrimination, began rapidly disintegrating in the liberal welfare state that subsidized unwed pregnancy and changed welfare from an emergency rescue to a way of life," argues Thomas Sowell.
@WE_Williams @DailySignal Let’s look at whether black fatherless homes are a result of a “legacy of slavery” and racial discrimination.
In the late 1800s, depending on the city, 70% to 80% of black households were two-parent.

@WE_Williams @DailySignal As late as 1950, only 18% of black households were single-parent. From 1890 to 1940, a slightly higher percentage of black adults had married than white adults.
@WE_Williams @DailySignal In 1938, black illegitimacy was about 11% instead of today’s 75%. In 1925, 85% of black households in New York City were two-parent. Today, the black family is a mere shadow of its past.
@WE_Williams @DailySignal Let’s ask a couple of questions about crime and education and racial discrimination.
It turns out that each year more than 7,000 blacks are victims of homicide. That’s slightly over 50% of U.S. homicide victims. 94 % of the time, the perpetrator is another black person.

@WE_Williams @DailySignal At many predominantly black schools, chaos is the order of the day. There is a high rate of assaults on students and teachers. Youngsters who are hostile to the educational process are permitted to make education impossible for those who are prepared to learn.
@WE_Williams @DailySignal Is it necessary for us to await some kind of moral rejuvenation among white people before measures can be taken to end or at least reduce the kind of behavior that spells socioeconomic disaster in so many black communities?
@WE_Williams @DailySignal Is it a requirement that we await moral rejuvenation among white people before we stop permitting some black youngsters from making education impossible for other black youngsters?
@WE_Williams @DailySignal Blacks were not the only people discriminated against in America. While Jews and Asians were not enslaved, they encountered gross discrimination. Neither Jews nor Asians felt that they had to await the end of discrimination before they took measures to gain upward mobility.
@WE_Williams @DailySignal Intellectuals and political hustlers who blame the plight of so many blacks on poverty, racial discrimination, and the “legacy of slavery” are complicit in the socioeconomic and moral decay.

@WE_Williams @DailySignal Black and white intellectuals and politicians suggesting that black people await government solutions wouldn’t begin to live in the same high-crime, dangerous communities, and send their children to the dangerous schools that so many black children attend.
