To me, I hear that and I'm like, 'Yeah, that’s—I mean, read some Shelby Steele' Like, yes, this has been—this is not a new thought or observation It's not, and the attack on him is that he said during Jim Crow, the black family was healthier, as if there was something good about Jim Crow He wasn't extolling the benefits of Jim Crow He was pointing out the collapse of the African-American family, which has occurred in the post-Jim Crow era And, I mean, he was just making a statement of fact I mean, when Daniel Patrick Moynihan, the late senator from New York, who was working for the Lyndon Johnson administration in 1965, issued a report on the black family, he was alarmed at the collapse of the black family And he was pointing at 25 percent of the babies born to a black woman being born to a woman without a husband That number is 70 percent today 70 Moynihan was writing in 1965 at the end of Jim Crow Things have gotten worse, that’s simply a statement of fact People are putting their head in the sand to the extent that they ignore what is sociologically obvious, which is that it's a devastating indictment of a community and impos inhibition of that community's ability to reproduce productively itself from generation to generation For the family to have collapsed, the nuclear family—husband, wife, mother, father raising children This is a good thing, not a bad thing It's time-tested throughout history And what has happened to African-American society in that respect is unhealthy and something to be lamented, in my opinion And I think, again, that that's a demonstrable statement about how societies reproduce themselves, the family is key And he was just pointing out that the collapse of the family is a post-Jim Crow phenomenon amongst African Americans And that's true This is another reason why I love 'Late Admissions' and your book, because you're not speaking about this from some high perch like, 'I've made better choices than all of you and now I will lecture you about how you can be a better person like me' You're actually laying it bare on how you did not always make the best choices and things didn't work out that great in the personal lane for you at every chapter I mean, you've been incredibly academically successful and professionally successful But you’re open about the pain that you've caused in making other decisions So let's let me take you back Alright, let me take you back to the South Side of Chicago and a young Glenn Who were you?
