Women want men who can protect them - make them feel safe, physically, emotionally & financially - that's always been our downfall as Black men.

We can't even protect ourselves in this country.

@SW-User Are you ignoring the fact that we live in a country where police are able to lawfully harass black men - pull them over for no crime. Stop and frisk still exist in several U.S. States - authorizing police officers to stop and harass black men without retribution. The data does not lie. Blacks are twice as likely as whites to be stopped by police and twice as likely to be searched. Black men are 3 times as likely to be convicted of a crime than white men.

Despite the success of a fragment of the Africa American population, there exist a high degree of polarity between the incomes of whites and blacks. 90% of Blacks are still living paycheck to paycheck - in addition to the unemployment rate of blacks remaining at nearly double that of Whites. Aside from the wealth gap, black men have little political power and no real influence in government.

@SW-User Caucasians hold - and have always held all the cards - politically and economically. Preceding the Jim Crow Era, long afterward and even now, laws have been structured in a way that promotes conformity or failure - assimilate or remain at the bottom. You call this economic system a free market, but who regulates it? And how can it be a free market if it's regulated? All of the barriers that exist in today's market exist for one reason - to dissuade and avert low income individuals - especially blacks - from creating wealth - and keep them dependent upon a white-controlled government.
