Black Men Not the Cause of all Black Relationship Failures

Barack Obama was wrong during a father's day speech in which he implied and stated that black men are among the most irresponsible fathers in America. Black men are challenging Barack Obama, stating that he was wrong in his assertion.


Black college students begin protesting the use of terms like "baby mama", "lynching party", "Osama", "terrorist fist jab", and other racist terminology used to describe Michelle and Barack Obama.

Black males have defended black women in many situations, yet many black women fell right into Barack Obama's stereotypes when it comes to discussing why black men are flawed.

Don`t black women bear any responsibility? It takes 2 to tango. Men in general should not be getting women pregnant unless they want to make a lifetime committment to the woman and their children together. At the same time, women regardless of race should not be carelessly passing their bodies around to every Tom, Dick, and Harry only to end up pregnant with an unwanted child that they don`t have the financial or emotional means to take care of. It`s a two way street. Both are responsible.

Man this is the most stupid video on you tube, how could you blame this man for telling the godamb truth , bm are absent for the most part, im usually on the side of my brother's but whoever posted this need they ass beat, oh and by the way snoop dog also told all bm not to luv these hoes, but he's a good father , you think he (snoop)teach his kids that garbage

He didn't say anything about hip hop, not that it is anything positive anyways

That is always looking for a quick way out. Jesus said broad is the way that leads to destruction and there are many who travel that road, narrow is the way that leads to life and righteousness and few there are that travels it.

Continued from below.... Our young men in the home, how to be a man, what is the truth. We cannot blame our past for where We are today, there are to many successful African Americans, who are where they are because of the choices that they decided to make, many have come out of oppressive urban communities (ghetto) and have made, even being under educated. We all have a choice, even in our worst situations to try to make something good out of it. Then there's others that like to follow the ....

I agree with the statement, since I am a single black male that did not have father in the home. And all I wanted to do is live the fast life, Chase women, get high, get money, go to jail hoping the girl I was with was going to stick by me. Oh did I mention that my major influence was hip hop videos and the messages portrayed. That this what life was all about. So many of our youth are fallen victim to these deceptions. That the cycle now become there are no fathers in the home to really teach

Obama need to focus on job creation and stop with the bullshyt!

[shieldsff]

really,how about the "Root"actually being that a centuries-long history of racism & discrimination has undermined the role&influence of millions of Black men to obtain a quality education & competitive jobs I understand where Pres.Obama is coming from though-he is clearly upset about his OWN father abandoning him.It is hard to understand though how his abandonment somehow translates into the problem being mainly a black{men} community one (which is patently untrue).Where are the JOBS4 black men

[nospaces08]

OBAMA is right, Tell these men to grow up. That statistic @ 1:01 is a lie.

[commander13140]

It appears that the brother here doesn't want to face the FACTS himself. The biggest problem the African American community has that will continually prevent it from getting free is (more than any other group; including those who are daily viewers of Fox Noise) is we confuse the facts with the truth. We have come to believe that facts and truth are synonymous. What Obama said is TRUE. His remark may be tempered by the fact that unwed Black men spend more time w/ their kids but his words are true

@MiSs215Live

Your dad is a dead beat, but your situation is not the majority. the majority of black women who are single moms ahd their babies out of wedlock. Went men who didnt want to marry them. Thats your responsibility. Your anscestors gave you guidance and instructions and sister have abandoned those instructions.

Men who abandon their responsibilites are deadbeats, women who sleep with them are fools. Either at balk children are in a whole heap of sheat.

Im not going to just sleep with anybody to become a "deadbeat" im going be carefull fully examine who i am having kids with so i dont get drivin mad, its in all actaulity about getting to know who you are actually with, i could understand why my father left because my mother is one of the psycho crazy...
