From Nikolai: "“One
report from SUNY Buffalo has it that 90 percent of middle-class white
women who were interviewed report being battered or witnessing their
mothers, daughters and sisters being battered. Nicholas
Kristof,
who is on a world tour for the purpose of blaming black and brown men for
cruelty to women, probably missed this report. "
From 1997:
"Ninety-two
percent of white female respondents said that such domestic violence was
directed against them, their mothers and/or sisters, either in their birth
households or in later relationships. By comparison, 62 percent of black female
subjects reported similar levels of violence in their lives."
According
to the article, the study was about "white,
working-class women in relatively stable families."
