  • To The Somalian Speaker that said Black Americans Don't Know Their Father's
    Dec 5 2025
    The claim that many Black people do not know their fathers is a widely circulated and often controversial narrative rooted in specific US Census data points.

    The narrative that a majority of Black American children grow up without their fathers stems from statistical reporting, which critics argue is often presented without necessary context.

    The Statistical Basis (Where the Research Comes From)The common number cited by individuals making claims about father absence often originates from U.S. Census Bureau data tracking the proportion of children born to unmarried mothers, or children living without a "resident father."
    • The Key Statistic: Historically, reports have shown that a high percentage of Black children—at one point nearing 70-80%—were born to unmarried mothers. This number is often used to claim equivalent rates of "fatherlessness."
    • The Contextual Gap: Critics and sociologists point out that this statistic is often used misleadingly. A child being born to an unmarried mother does not automatically mean the father is absent. Research shows that:
      1. Many non-resident fathers remain highly involved in their children's lives.
      2. The number of Black children living without a resident father drops significantly when cohabiting parents, stepfathers, and extended family members (like grandfathers and uncles) who provide male guidance are considered.
      3. Recent data shows positive trends, with the proportion of Black children living with a resident dad reaching its highest point since the 1980s.
    The Historical Context: This narrative gained major traction following the 1965 Moynihan Report (The Negro Family: A Case for National Action). Authored by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, this controversial report argued that the deteriorating structure of the Black family (specifically, female-headed households) was the fundamental cause of poverty and inequality in the Black community.While the report acknowledged socio-economic factors, the focus on family structure allowed policymakers and commentators to shift the blame for structural inequality and historical racism onto Black Americans themselves, rather than addressing systemic causes like unemployment, discriminatory housing, and the impact of the criminal justice system.

    The "absent Black father" became a powerful, often racialized, trope.The Need for Black Americans to Combat Misinformation and disinformation—especially surrounding family structure, crime, and identity—have a profoundly damaging impact on the Black American community, which makes correcting false narratives critical.

    1. Preventing Justification for Punitive Policy: When misleading statistics about family structure are widely accepted, they often serve as justification for punitive public policies. By framing social issues as being the result of poor individual choices (e.g., father absence) rather than systemic barriers (e.g., racism, wealth gaps), policymakers can avoid addressing the root causes of inequality. For example, the narrative is often used to justify strict welfare or child support laws that can further destabilize low-income families.

    2. Undermining Community Trust and Cohesion: Historically and currently, disinformation campaigns have specifically targeted Black communities to sow division, depress voter turnout, and erode trust in legitimate institutions like science and medicine (as seen during the COVID-19 pandemic). Combating misinformation is essential to preserving the community's collective agency and safeguarding civic participation.

    3. Reclaiming the Narrative of Black Fatherhood: The pervasive myth of the "absent Black father" overshadows the reality that countless Black fathers are deeply and actively engaged in their children's lives, often overcoming economic and systemic barriers to do so. Putting an end to this misinformation allows the community to celebrate its strengths, affirm the humanity and competence of Black fathers, and shift the public focus from blame and pathology to resilience and support.Combating these narratives requires challenging the data presentation, providing crucial historical and social context, and amplifying positive counter-narratives of Black families.

    This is a raw story about the fragile relationship between a mother, Amelia, and her daughter, Chloe, who lives just two hours away. When Chloe visits her hometown, she chooses to stay with her grandparents, signaling a deep, painful rift. The story explores Amelia’s secret anxiety—driving without a license due to repeated test failures—which she uses as an "excuse" for never visiting Chloe. The tension culminates when Chloe hastily leaves Amelia’s new apartment, crushing Amelia, who retaliates by skipping a family cookout. The visit ends with a painful confrontation with an aunt, where both mother and daughter's unspoken hurts—Chloe feeling unwanted, Amelia feeling rejected—finally spill out, revealing a relationship strained by fear, distance, and profound miscommunication.

  • The Stillwater Shockwave How an Oklahoma Teen Rapist Walked Free Despite an 80-Year Sentence
    Nov 2 2025
    The story of Jesse Mack Butler centers on a case of multiple felony sexual assaults in Stillwater, Oklahoma, that resulted in a controversial sentence under the state's legal system. Butler, a former high school athlete, pleaded guilty to severe crimes including rape, sexual battery, and strangulation against several teenage girls. Despite facing and receiving a lengthy prison sentence (reportedly nearly 80 years), the court utilized the Oklahoma Youthful Offender Act to classify him, allowing the judge to suspend the entire sentence and prioritize rehabilitation. Consequently, Butler avoided time in prison and was instead placed on a strict probation and rehabilitation plan with the Oklahoma Office of Juvenile Affairs until he turns 19. The outcome sparked intense community outrage from victims and their families, who argue that the judicial system failed to deliver justice for the trauma he inflicted, prioritizing the offender's future over the victims' safety.
