'The State of Black America' Book Tour Appearance

Nccondor23 you wrote: he stated that "government destroyed the black family." I've gone to your source and added the text from there. I also downloaded the audio file and listened to it twice. I didn't find that quotation of yours. If you have a time code and I just missed it, let me know. Otherwise I am removing it as a fabricated quote. OckRaz ^talk 23:56, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'll fix it Nccondor23 (talk) 23:58, 27 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

it's fixed. it was a quote from CURE, of which he is the lead scholar...

are we good for now? until I add the workgroup stuff at some later date, at least? Nccondor23 (talk) 00:04, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Putting quotation marks around the words suggests that he spoke them. That's a mis-attribution. If you put something in quotes, then it has to be properly attributed, which in this instance would mean assigning the phrase to CURE. OckRaz ^talk 00:08, 28 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
