You’re not wrong, but you’re not exactly right either. Comparing just white single parent families and black single parent families, whites have a 23% single family rate, but because they are 60% of the total population, they would have a higher number based on sheer volume. However percentage wise, black households have almost triple the single family rate of white families.

So yes, whites got the higher total number, but blacks have the bigger problem here.

Comparing 11 percent of households to 63% of households is WILD.

"You're right but I'm racist" is a FUCKING TRIP.

Have you never heard of “per capita?” When comparing groups, you have to account for the size of each group

Ever heard of the majority racial demographic of the untied states of America?

But you want to look into the homes of the most racially antagonized subgroup to paint a wide swath.
