There is no "our people" about this issue. Individuals have different standards, values, and expectations about things.
Because of that, different dudes will look at the same picture and see something different.
The Chris Rock joke about "I take care if my kids" applies here.
However well intended this thread is, a YT video with Bible verses isn't going to change a person's personal values, or stop the juelzing/reaching that has already started.
Because we already face societal hurdles and barriers, these varied views of fatherhood/parenting ends up hurting the individual Black children who are coming up.

True as this is, because no nation can become a power without a stable family at its root, too many of us adhere to individualism. The principle is going to get picked apart in earnest to avoid the real issue instead of dealing with the issue earnestly. To do better means coming back to a common, shared identity. Can't do that when we always inviting other people to the cookout and jumping the fence over petty differences.
The real problem is that we have the kids when too young (16-22).
Most men at that age aren't going be ready/want to raise a child unless the proper infrastructure is already in place.
Cacs have that luxury we do not.

Read the report for yourself. You seem determined to down talk Black men about this issue, when an actual government study shows that we do more than other men.

The Myth of the Missing Black Father. | Fatherhood.gov
Statistics show that close to 70 percent of all births to black mothers are nonmarital, giving rise to the stereotype that black fathers are largely absent. However, while black fathers are less likely than white and Hispanic fathers to marry their child's mother, many black fathers continue to...www.fatherhood.gov
The real problem is black folks don’t get married.
I think things are better now with our generation.
But when we were growing up the father issue was a thing.
