The “Broken” Black Family with Dr. Ibram X. Kendi | The Amanda Seales Show

[@bigplanslittledrive4791]

I love how Amanda keeps reminding us she is ‘intelligent’. Cos I can’t judge that by the words and ideas people use but just by being told ‘I’m intelligent’

Meh .Muhammad Ali said he was the greatest before he actually was .

^ she has to keep telling us how smart she is because she knows if we just had to observe her on our own we wouldn't be impressed.

Kendi won't debate.

Black men are strong and powerful. don't be tricked- they should be in a household raising a good family- Black men are qualified to do almost anything from a bus driver to a President of the most powerful and richest country in the WORLD-

[@marriejames01]

We’ve never seen a Black president so I wouldn’t go that far. 🙄

[@jimreplicant]

Yeah when they aint shootin eachother😂

​@@jimreplicantevery ethnic group assaults it's own ethnic group at higher rates than against others, particularly with "deadly weapons". Your statement presents hyperbolic fallacy.

[@jimreplicant]

@@Cedecko_115 this is the dumbest comment ever lol!! poc kill each other at way higher rates then anyone else in this country. They are responsible for more then half of all murders but are only 13% of the population. Your entire bogus argument is a fallacy 🤣

[@sonnychiba3529]

I'm not really understanding his point. Is he saying the black family isn't broken? Is he saying that black men are not needed in the home? What's the point he trying to make? Is he being political?

[@toryjei9435]

Did you listen FULLY to anything he stated? Did it trouble your ego?

[@sonnychiba3529]

@@toryjei9435 What do this have to do with my ego? He's all over the place, I'm simply trying to understand his position which isn't clear to me. Can you clarify what he's saying?

[@RustyBlanks-z8m]

There is no point to it.

The United States Supreme Court struck down the no man in the house requirement in King v. Smith in 1968.

[@toryjei9435]

Not quite...they struck down the support of substitute fathers, not necessarily fathers who were present, active, and deemed legally responsible for the children.

[@andreabrown4541]

​@@toryjei9435nope. No man in the home affected all women on welfare. Only black men accused their women of choosing welfare over them. Latino men accused the government of separating their men from their women. Asian and white men didn't say anything.

[@timsimmons5190]

The policy is still the same. No man in the hiuse

[@Jeff-tt7wj]

So many black people having different opinions than Kendi. Crazy! It’s almost as if it’s possible that they’re right and he’s wrong. Good thing he engaged in debate with them as an Intellectual to defend his ideas. Oh wait….

[@gerryanderson7772]

Wow, he came out the box with the black man as the abuser🤕🥱‼️

[@donaldnewman5836]

What is your problem? You don't look like a black man.

[@KaseboyAdvance]

If you paid attention, you'd realize that he said that a man does not inherently need to be present to make a family, because some men are abusers. Nowhere did he say that the Black Man is an abuser. Listen with your ears and not your feelings next time.

[@donaldnewman5836]

He didn't come out of the box saying what you said. You must be a MAGA clown and Trump supporter

[@andreabrown4541]

I got "white people pathologize black men" vibes from what he said. We have totally different critical thinking skills.

[@sonnychiba3529]

That what I heard from jump!!!! I bet he's sus....

[@g.p616]

To clearly lie, ( black fathers are more present than white fathers) when the stats, which are freely available, show otherwise, makes him look a fool!😂😂😂

[@cozmowiz5593]

I admire these two derply but cant accept grouping folks into this box. We all dont come from anything broken. It informs america we are all this and its not true. In fact acvording to national stats black families are united but have percentages higher in areas of racism. Baltimore being one of the worst for this. They break homes for fun. In my community even before CJ Walker buikt her empire thete were 9 black families building theirs.
