NYDL Episode 67: Why Black Kids Are Raised to Be Single

In this monumental episode SIR and Modern Malcolm discuss why most black men and black women in America struggle to coexist in relationships. There is no other place in the world where the black family is more fragmented than in the United States. What is it about building family we don’t seem to understand? The black community once upon a time lead the nation in marriage rates. All of these fragmented homes have consequences. What are some of the negative outcomes for children who come from fragmented homes? Why does there appear to be a constant intercultural war between black men and women? Who is right? Who is wrong? Are we both wrong and lack the maturity to both grow? What can’t be denied is that there clearly is a problem and the black community has to be the one to address it. What is the black parents role in this chaotic environment? What can we do to come together to improve the chances of staying together. How can we turn around the generational failing of too many of our homes. To discuss generational wealth with a majority of fragmented homes is hustling backwards. When a family is united then generational wealth is a much more seamless process because there is structure, respect, order, love, and understanding. This episode is too important to miss. Listen, think, comment, and discuss with your friends and family. Let’s be about family instead of just talking about it. Listen with an open mind…to achieve a different outcome we must think and live differently…tap in let’s grow.
