For those on Book of Faces and who want to read the comments (about 50/50 between "Uncle Tom!!" and "Preach it Brother !!)

But basically hits the same points that Thomas Sowell, Ben Carson, and Bill Cosby (prior to the rape charges) have stated over and over.  That the Black community needs to clean up it's own house, value education and work, stop having babies out of wedlock and reject welfare and other .gov aid.

The number of "preach it brothers " was encouraging

From the article:

The 2014 documentary 72 Percent, produced by Moguldom Studios, sheds an unflinching light on the epidemic of African-American children born to single-parent households. It explores the fact that black activists have largely rejected the criticism leveled by members of the intellectual class, such as Dr. Ben Carson, President Barack Obama and Bill Cosby, that black fathers are inexcusably absent from the lives of their children.

While the author's point is valid, I wouldn't mention Cosby.

the 800 pound gorilla (if I can use that term in this context), is that the ONLY black lives that 'matter',  are those that are politically expedient.
