Remember black family shows in the 90s? Family Matters was one of my favorites. It looked an awful lot like the white family shows of the time too. I guess it only takes 30 years for the structure of black families to change completely. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I know several intact black families. One of the best 'model' families I know is a very religious one, the father coaches women's soccer (He's like a black Brett Kavanaugh) and he makes a point of showing up to things like my son's birthday, baptism etc etc.. despite the fact that he only COACHED my ex and her sister like 20 years ago. I don't know how he manages to find the time to be a part of peoples' lives but it's truly amazing the spirit this guy brings with him everywhere. People shout 'Hey Coach!" in public.
His wife is white, but his 2-3 kids are all grown up, doctors and lawyers and shit. All solidly black and not trapped in some victim mentality.
Us old folks remember intact black families in the 60s....
