    TYRESE -- My Divorce Serves As An Example ...BLACK FAMILIES ARE UNDER ATTACK

    Tyrese has more to say about the divorce he announced Tuesday night ... he says Black families and marriages are under attack, and it all has to do with kids watching and ultimately mimicking their parents.

    Tyrese announced he and wife Samantha are divorcing after almost 4 years of marriage. He says it's super friendly, but is now explaining why he thinks the marriage fell apart.

    Tyrese says ... "I've wrestled with this question ... How can we naturally know how to BE something we were never raised by? Most of us were raised in broken homes with NO examples of what being a husband, wife or FATHER is."

    Not a very PC statement but it’s true. Unfortunately it’s a perpetual cycle and not easy to break.

    @pgabriel nows your time for insight.

    This isn't something that can be solved from the top down. Tax breaks and family incentives are usually assumed for other races and are distrusted by lower class families who only pay attention to immediate results.

    I guess a bottom up assist would be to message family relief and assistance but there are some shrill liberals who would complain about "cultural indoctrination" ( you don't tell me what to do or how to act!) as if being fiscally or family responsible is wholly owned by a race or creed

    I Call BS!!!!

    Stop making excuses for what you know you were doing wrong.....

    I know a lot of men who were raised by a single mom and they have a 40 plus marriage... One being my cousin who has been married to his high school sweetheart for over 40 years....

    I also know a lot of guys who were raised with a both a mom and a dad in their house hold and they have been married multiple times...

    Stop blaming BS on something and take responsibility for your errors....

    You can't just take random women off to Cancun, Tyrese.

    And in my case things always fall apart eventually because the women I date get tired of “it’s too big and I’m tired of hurting when we have sex” I understand, but it still sucks.

    Fox News

    Sean Hannity: “All you attractive white women out there considering dating black men take note. Famous black man Tyrese Gibson said that black men make ****** husbands and fathers... imagine that. This type of honesty I am sure will be attacked by feminazi’s and socialists but we on Hannity appreciate an honest black man.... now, it is time to hand off to Tucker Carlson for his show... Tucker, any thoughts?
    Tucker Carlson: I hate black people almost as much as I hate women.”

    From Bill Bryson's book "The Body"

    "One of the most memorably unexpected events I experienced in the course of doing this book came in a dissection room at the University of Nottingham in England when a professor and surgeon named Ben Ollivere gently incised and peeled back a sliver of skin about a millimeter thick from the arm of a cadaver. It was so thin as to be translucent. "That," he said, "is where all your skin color is. That's all race is - a sliver of epidermis."

    I mentioned this to Nina Jablonski when we met in her office in State College, Pennsylvania soon afterward. She gave a nod of vigorous assent. "It's extraordinary how such a small facet of our composition is given so much importance," she said. "People act as if skin color is a determinant of character when all it is is a reaction to sunlight. Biologically, there is no such thing as race - nothing on terms of skin color, facial features, hair type, bone structure, or anything else that is a defining quality among people's. And yet look how many people have been enslaved or hated or lynched or deprived of fundamental rights through history because of the color of their skin."

    And when you let them district you from being honest, they win

    White supremacists aren't a problem. Cyclical poverty is

    "Letting them distract you" and denying they exist are two different things. They claim nobody thinks it's biology, just isn't true.

    I agree poverty is the biggest issue. Where I'm guessing we would disagree is the extent that slavery and segregation pushed and held the black community in poverty. But we don't need to rehash that argument we've had it like 5 times.

    This is a bunch of BS there are many of men and women that have been raised by single parents. He is making excuses for messing up.
