Because I think as adults, we forget what it's like to be a kid. And your parents are your world. And when you divorce, it's literally like the world splitting in half. And that's a detrimental thing to experience.

Yes, that's correct. I do think having an outside male role model can be beneficial. And what you explained before, as far as the pushback from single mothers, I think the difference is that I'm a product of a single parent home. I'm the exact child who grew up without his father.

And I explain the adverse effects for me, dealing with mental health issues, being admitted into a mental hospital at the age of eight for suicidal ideation. Like all these different things, suffering from this, this is a byproduct of a chaotic life stemming from single parenthood.

You know, ending up homeless twice as a child, watching my mother struggle because she's the only one taking care of us and she's a single income earner. And there is no superhero, you know, cheer that you can give my mother and no one would wish that a woman, especially me, I would never wish for a woman to go through what my mother went through to take care of us.

Yeah, I started writing about race and obviously my first book, Black Victor and Black Victor, talking about race and being more open about it. The reason I started commenting on DEI was because after George Floyd, everyone pretended that wanting a colorblind society was improbable and that there was something wrong with that.

And then all of a sudden we must, on a very superficial level, treat each other, give each other benefits, or go after someone simply because of their skin color, which is the opposite lesson we were supposed to learn from the civil rights movement. The civil rights movement was about blanket discrimination. It didn't matter. It wasn't, well, you can't discriminate against the blacks.

It was discrimination, period. And so the lesson that I learned as a child, primarily growing up in the late 80s and 90s, is that we were supposed to look at each other as individuals. And that black person might be a good person, might be a bad person. That white person might be good or bad.

They're an individual, and they're allowed to express themselves in a particular way, and I can judge them by their character. But with DEI, it makes everything incredibly superficial, and it's also tinged with racism, but in more of a condescending tone towards black people. So even the white progressives who are championing black Americans like me

There is a tinge of racism, a bigotry of low expectation that they still place upon me because they have to do it for me because I'm incapable of doing it because of the quote-unquote system.

Yeah, I think it's important to look at the progress. I think that's what makes me proud to be an American is the progress. So even if I was to grant every narrative that they have pre-civil rights era back into slavery and all of that, even if I was to grant America was this horrible place, let's just say they're 100% true. Well, today it isn't. Today it's a land of progress.
