This type of backlash toward Black fathers is very typical in Louisiana. Before he died, the founder of Popeye's Chicken and Copeland's Restaurants Al Copeland paid a very small amount in child support payment ($50,000 per year) and he was worth millions, whereas I knew Black fathers in Louisiana barely making over $50k per year and they were paying over $10k per year. Also, I've had White male co-workers who have gotten full custody of their kids although the mothers requested it too, whereas I've seen Black fathers who were more than capable of raising their kids get laugh at when they asked for full custody. IMO, Louisiana is one of the worst States in dealing with the custody of Black children. Somehow people have come to accept this social norm that Black children are better off being raised by their single mother. Don Lemon for example, every chance he gets he announces it to the world on CNN that he was raise by a poor Black single mother in Louisiana..
