From Welfare Plantation to Ideological Captivity: The Evolution of the Attack

The attack on Black families didn't end with welfare reform. It evolved.

In the 1960s-1990s, they used welfare to destroy family structure economically. Fathers were incentivized to leave. Mothers were paid to stay single. Marriage was penalized. And we saw the results: fatherlessness skyrocketed, poverty became generational, and communities collapsed.

But here's what most people don't understand: That was just Phase One.

Today's families face something far more insidious. The plantation evolved from economic dependency to ideological captivity. And if you don't understand how we got here, you can't fight your way out.

Phase One (1960s-1990s): The Welfare Plantation

The Results Were Devastating:

This wasn't accidental. It was engineered dependency disguised as compassion. And it worked.

Phase Two (2000s-2010s): Cultural Indoctrination

Once family structure was destroyed economically, the enemy moved to Phase Two: eroding biblical values through cultural messaging.

The Goal? Disconnect families from biblical worldview. Make them dependent on culture instead of Christ. And it worked. By 2010, most Black families had abandoned biblical values—even those who still attended church.

Phase Three (2020s-NOW): Ideological Warfare

Today's attack isn't just economic or cultural—it's ideological warfare targeting minds and souls.
