re: Freakonomics podcast on marriage and income

quote:

---

1) Are there a larger % of babies born to white mothers with black fathers today (2017) than in 1960, or 1980? Yes or no?

2) Are the FATHERS in those non-white demographics more likely to have babies out of wedlock than white fathers? Yes or no?

If the answer to both of those questions is "Yes", then we have an answer to one of the factors driving up the % of out-of-wedlock births to white mothers in the past 25-50 years.
