The assumption that a black man would get her pregnant and then abandon his responsibility to his child. It's an ugly stereotype that follows us all around the world.

The irony and remarkable part is most BM do not abandon their children. The facts of the matter are somewhat different.
Dennis Spurling “DIVESTER LADY SAYS BLACK MEN MUST HELP TAKE CARE OF ZADDY'S SWIRL BABIES” and we speak of 1.5 million out of wedlock children, since 2011 till 2015, we have not even counted those from 2016 to 2022. It's probably double this by now with this divestment gang.
Here is the CDC source: see tables 1, 2 and 3.

These out of wedlock children by non-BM are considered Black according to the census bureau. Yet it’s BM who they claim for the absentee.
Close to half of BM do not have children, are unmarried and live in the middle class.

"We should note that this data doesn’t suggest that 67 percent of African-American children have no contact with their father (or a father figure), but rather that their father does not live in the same household with them."

The problem is that a small percentage of men has multiple children with multiple women, out of wedlock.
"She found that having children by different fathers was more common among minority women, with 59 percent of African American mothers, 35 percent of Hispanic mothers, and 22 percent of White mothers reporting multiple partner fertility. Women who were not living with a man when they gave birth and those with low income and less education were also more likely to have children by different men.”
The first national study of the prevalence of multiple partner fertility shows that 28 percent of all U.S. women with two or more children have children by more than one man. The study was presented April 1 in Washington, D.C., at the annual meeting of the Population Association of America. “I was
