Hispanics are oppressed but generally have strong family units. What gives?

I'm not assigning responsibility to black folks to maintain it on their own. Obviously someone else dropped the ball, but who?

The Democratic Party and black leadership who have profited at the expense of the black population.

LBJ. Most men are too totally cruel at heart and will care for their offspring. However, when the gubment is willing to step in scumbags take full advantage.

The black family unit was cohesive until the 60s.

That's what started a culture that celebrates/promotes bastard children?

The black family didn't really begin falling apart until the late 60s. The subsequent 20 years tore it apart due to a combination of LBJ's social reforms, the drug trade beginning to really target young black males in the 70s and Reagan's drug enforcement policies.

The result was an entire generation of young AA males either strung out on drugs, dealing them or both, a system of welfare which allowed them to sustain themselves in such a lifestyle and a drug policy that disproportionately targeted and punished them. The effects then propagated to future generations who simply did as they saw their parents do.

The biggest thing we could do to help black America today is not to give them more financial aid but to drastically reform our drug enforcement policy.

If young black males were primary users, why it wouldn't they be the primary focus of drug curtailment efforts?

Conversely, will the booming Hispanic population follow the likes of the black culture or are their values of family and work too engrained. A couple generations on the government dime could change this.

They aren't, the overwhelming majority of drug users both then and now are white. Why you took my statement to mean that blacks were the majority of drugs users I don't know.

You misunderstand, black drug users and distributers are more likely to be arrested than their non-black counterparts and receive far stiffer penalties for the same crimes.
