Looks like we were a lot less of a racist country in the 40's and 50's, huh?

The percentage of children born outside of marriage has skyrocketed, with a six-fold increase since 1960. Currently, the figure is highest among blacks, but the rate of increase is highest among whites and Hispanics.
This is a bullshite extrapolation from the data at hand. The "rate of increase" is utterly useless when you start so low in the first place (1950 rates). The rate of change (slope) for the overall trend should be the concern, and while that isn't promising for any race, it is particularly worrisome for blacks.

If you notice, the incline begins at the passage of LBJ's "War On Poverty", which rewards the behavior we still see today.

Nobody is terrified of the fact that now whites are at the point that blacks were on the graph in 1970?
Because I am.
