"When you think about it...centuries of slavery and generations of Jim Crow did not destroy the black family. But one generation of the welfare state did." -Thomas Sowellpic.twitter.com/n268EvypdO

Slavery & Jim Crow were horrible atrocities that halted black progress for centuries. The welfare state as well as affirmative action have continued to halt black progress by creating greater obstacles resulting in worse outcomes. Yet, people want more government involvement?

Where do I read about the harms of the welfare state on black people? I tried reading lbj’s great society Wikipedia for this reason but didn’t get anywhere. Thanks.

Books/columns by Walter E. Williams are a great place to start. He has done a lot of research on the welfare state. Suffer No Fools is a great documentary on it too.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZGvQcxoAPg …

I listened to the whole thing. If I had only known I could get amnesty for being white, I could've saved myself a lot of time! Thanks Walter Williams!pic.twitter.com/eKEYrwg120

Wikipedia isn’t a great source because the proponents of these policies are good at keeping it hidden. I won’t tell you what to read, but use DuckDuckGo for your search and be astonished at what you’ll find.
