that  Progressive  officials  have  aligned  with  radical

            Marxist-Socialist  factions  to  drastically  cut  funding  for
            their police operations. By doing this, these Progressive
            “Race  Warriors”  are  failing  the  citizens  they  claim  to

            protect.



            Have “Race Warriors” supported families?
            Again, the answer to this question is  an emphatic NO!
            The  Great  Society  program  which  began  in  the  mid-

            1960’s, with the goal of eradicating poverty, is proof of
            their failure to support families.  Much has been written

            to show that it actually harmed family units.  In 1965,
            when  the  Great  Society  began,  the  out-of-wedlock
            birthrate among the black community was 21%              50-2 . By

            2017,  this  figure  had  risen  to  a  whopping  77%    50-2 .  In

            some cities, this rate was as high as 80%, with most of
            the unwed mothers being teenagers. It attached severe
            restrictions  on  its  financial  support  for  two-parent

            households,  while  incentivizing  and  subsidizing  unwed
            pregnancies.      The     resulting     statistics    regarding

            generational  poverty  and  crime  are  shameful.  If  one
            considers  the  current  policies  that  Progressives  are

            promising,  there  will  be  open  hostility  against
            preserving,  much  less  restoring  the  two-parent

            household.
