In the 1970s, the two-tiered family structure was closely correlated with race, but since that time it has become increasingly associated with parents’ social class more than race… College-educated blacks are looking more like college-educated whites, and less-educated whites are looking more like less-educated blacks…
In the 1970s, there were virtually no class differences in how much time a child got with mom or dad.
