Right, but you could look at the incarceration rates and mortality rates for young black males which probably coincide with that spike for the explanation. Women aren't going to not have children just because there are no men to marry, (my opinion here) as long as they can have children they will try to raise them on their own if they have to. I'd argue that slavery, racism and institutionalized discrimination, which led to packing blacks into housing ghettos or poorer neighborhoods in addition to heavy policing because of all that is the cause of what you're seeing and not the other way around. Additionally, as you can see the rates of out of wedlock births has exploded all around (white rates went from 2% to 30%, notably white society has collapsed from this astounding increase) which means that it is probably also pretty accepted by society which makes it more likely to happen.
