The article in question comes dangerously close to insinuating as much. The most generous I can be is to say that the author’s failure to approach any tangible, measurable cause for this phenomenon in improvised, black communities leaves the door wide open for racist interpretations. 

Quote:This study only points out the reason why people without fathers tend fail in this society. Again by the numbers because there are more white people, more white men experience this problem, but because even though a larger number of white men are affect a smaller percentage of the total population adopt this practice.
However because a larger percentage of the black community has adopted this social model higher percentage of males in that community are subject to this study's findings.

Again look which who dominates our prisons. Men with out fathers (white men without father first then black men without fathers.)

Sure. And, I’m not arguing against the hypothesis that family breakdown contributes to individual failure and societal breakdown. I’m only pointing out that if someone’s answer to the follow-up question: “Well, why are there so many broken families in African American communities?” is, “because, that’s just how the black folk are”, that person is a racist.
Ah he's busted out this tired Social Conservative trope
