MSNBC’s Tiffany Cross: Absentee Black Fathers Is a ‘Pervasive Myth that Has Been Disproven’

‘Happy Father’s Day, Herschel Walker’

EXCERPT:

CROSS: “All right, let’s talk about it. Georgia Republican senatorial candidate Herschel Walker has consistently criticized absentee black fathers. This is a pervasive myth that has been disproven, by the way. But it turns out that, until now, he’s never publicly acknowledged three of his own children. Earlier this week, the Daily Beast reported that Walker had a second son, and wait, there’s more. Walker eventually confirmed that he has a total of four children. Happy Father’s Day, Herschel Walker. In part of a statement, Walker says, ‘I have four children. Three sons and a daughter. They are not undisclosed,’ he says, ‘they are my kids. I support them all, and love them all,’ saying, ‘I hide my children because I don’t discuss them with reporters to win a campaign? That’s outrageous.’”
