The late Walter Williams was an economic and he was an American patriot. Btw thanks to Ray From Cleveland for bringing this man up I’ve looked more into him and he had a lot of great things to say…. Such as in this 1988 video from C-SPAN where Professor Williams debated another man professor Ronald Walters … The video includes callings from American citizens. It was back in 1988 but the conversation was similar in many ways to the conversations we have in America today. This was a productive debate a productive conversation no yelling or screaming ….just a great conversation between two men.

Williams brought up the fact that when it came to African-Americans their divorce rate was much lower in the American Past…. there was actually a time from 1890 to 1940 when the black American marriage rate was higher than that of the white American marriage rate.
The out of wedlock birth rate for African-Americans was considerably lower in the 1920s and 1930s than it is today.
Two parent household for African-Americans was very high in the American past now today many young African-American boys and girls are raised by one parent often one hardworking mother due to a deadbeat dad. There’s nothing worse than a deadbeat dad. And we should have laws in this country that sends those types of men to jail.
The middle class was stronger for Black people and white people throughout the early and middle of the 20th century.
The divorce rate for white Americans was also incredibly lower in the American past. Church attendance was much higher for Black people and white people in the American past.
Starting in the 1970s and 1980s cocaine and the crack cocaine epidemic ripped apart inner-city communities across the country ….and it negatively affected Black people and white people as well. Not much has been done on that front because we still have these types of lethal drugs cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, methamphetamine this poison is being sold to young children and grandmothers all across the country …and its time once and for all that we do something about it.
Slavery is in the past nobody can change history. White people were slaves and Black people were slaves when it came to history. The reparations argument makes no sense therefore.
In short we can learn so much from our ancestors the white people the Black people who built America in the 20th century. They worked incredibly hard they worked long hours at the steel plant the auto plant, as taxi drivers you name it ….and all these middle class jobs were plentiful back in those days for people right out of high school or even if they dropped out of high school.
What a better country this country was in the American past…. and that is paying homage to the men and women of all colors who made this country great , that is called respect for our elderly folks for our ancestors.
Economic & Political Status of Blacks in America
Prof. Walters and Prof. Williams give often differing views on topics such as the impact of slavery on current economic and social conditions of blacks.
