I remember back in 2010 when No Wedding No Womb first entered the foray, and everybody and their single mothers were railing against the mere acknowledgement and discussion of the 72%+ out-of-wedlock rate in the black community. There’s so much defensiveness on both sides, and little to no discussion is ever brought from the child’s perspective, who is the center of the issue.

One young lady spoke up, and I hope everyone listens to what she has to say with an open heart and open mind.
