Gender roles were consistent since we fell outta the trees a million years ago. If we want to survive as a species, we’re gonna need to recognize this and return to them. This need not involve fighting. But it must involve return to the roles for which we evolved.

That is amazing news about the uptick in black marriages. The nuclear family was the original company and our female ancestors are surely the ones that pushed for company formation. I know a bit about Black history in the US after the Civil War. Most people don't know the upper trajectory gains that were made. You only have to read some early civil rights leaders to understand strong fathers were essential. Dred Scott and his wife sued for the freedom to protect their daughters, not themselves. I think the Neo-Marxists went after the Black communities because they spotted an opening in the real oppression happening. Being the first community victimized by the rhetoric, the survivors seem to be emerging and hopefully become the leaders of the country.
