Blessings,
I’m sure there can be truth in that but there are a lot of successful black men on TV. Staying in school and joining the military us better than joining a gang. General Colin Powel and General West we see in Fox. FOX NEWS has Rep. and Dems on the news discussing world events.
Sometimes a study is affected by locale.
In Christ’s Love

Lord, Help us become strong in You and for our family and country.

Is there a report rather than a video?

Regression to the mean. This is only surprising if you don’t understand genetics.
Here’s a good article deconstructing it:

Sigh…
I’ve seen rich white guys and rich black guys, along with poor white guys and poor black guys. A significant difference between the rich guys and the poor guys is whether they engage in long-term thought and planning.
While there may be differences between what the poor white guys and poor black guys squander money on, there is still a significant gap in the length of planning between the rich and the poor. I see white rig workers out here who make ~$100,000.00/year with minimal opportunity costs from school who basically wind up bankrupt if the drilling slows down because they bought all sorts of “toys” like ATV’s, jacked up diesel trucks, etc. I see black guys making ~$100,000.00/year with minimal opportunity costs lacking a pot to p*** in because they bought all sorts of other “toys” like gold-plated DE .50 AE’s, grilles, and other assorted bling. Different spending habits, same problem.
Perhaps society wold be better off if schools taught the concepts of long-term thinking and delayed gratification.

The guy mentioned “father presence” as being a factor, about 2/3 of the way through.
I tend to think that is a huge factor for a young man - whether his father is present and what lessons his father is teaching him about work, spending habits, etc. as well as about many other things in life, such as how to be a father, how to treat women, etc.

For Black Boys, Family Structure Still Matters

It’s an interesting read. It should be a reminder how the media interprets a study in a way that can be radically different from what is actually in the paper.
