Black people represent a small percentage of the population, so there's nothing anomalous about this.

'Why does nothing happen when we don't do anything?'

Literally anyone can write any words to make any book. If you see a deficit in the market, write that book yourself.

Because 75% of black woman are single mothers. Compare this to Chinese Americans and Latin Americans.

Because white people aren’t responsible for black inadequacies.

Who gives an actual sh1t?

Well, first tell us who the black Barbara Cartland is...

Because this author is a hack and had a deadline.
