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.
