WE ARE HERE TO DISPEL THE MYTHS ABOUT
BLACK MARRIAGE & THE BLACK DATING SCENE!
DID YOU KNOW THAT BLACK AMERICANS DISPLAY LOWER
MARRIAGE RATES THAN OTHER RACIAL AND ETHNIC GROUPS?
In 2012 The US. Census Bureau released a report that studied the history of marriage in the United States. They discovered some startling statistics when calculating marriage by race. They found that African Americans age 35 and older were more likely to be married than White Americans from 1890 until something around the 1960s. Not only did they swap places in the 60s but in 1980 the
number of NEVER married African Americans began a staggering climb from about
10% to more than 25% by 2010 while the percentage of white women remained under
10% and just over 10% for White men.
In addition to being at a later age for their first marriage, black women
also have relatively high rates of marital instability.
50% of African Americans have never been married compared to 28% of Whites.
In addition to Black women marrying in life, there are higher rates of cohabitation
which does not yield the same benefits of marriage, and that negatively
impacts family wealth.
Contrary to popular belief 42% of Black children live with two parents
(compared to 70% of all children) while 51% live with one parent
(compared to 25% of all children)

The research also states that in addition to Black women having their first marriage being at a later age, Black women also have relatively high rates of marital instability due to systemic issues.
50% of African Americans have never been married compared to 28% of Whites.
In addition to Black women marrying later in life, there are having higher rates of cohabitation, which does not yield the same benefits of marriage, and negatively impacts family wealth.
