Father Sues Child Protective Services for 'Kidnapping' His Kids As Black Children Are Disproportionately Placed In Foster Care

Black children are placed in foster care and separated from their parents far more often than white children, reflecting a racial disparity in the system that some Black parents are attempting to remedy. A civil rights case recently filed in Minnesota by a Black father who alleges the state kidnapped his children and placed them in foster care shines a light on the scope of what has emerged as a national problem.

There are no numbers and no source given, so I can't assess the accuracy of the claim, but I think it's generally true that the state loves to separate children from their parents on any pretext. This is not just a black issue.

“Using trickery, duress, fabrication and/or false testimony or evidence, and in failing to disclose exculpatory evidence, in preparing and presenting reports and court documents to the Court.”

Did they learn this from the CPS, or was it the other way round?

It couldn't possibly be because black parents are disproportionately more abusive than non blacks. No, no, it has to be whitey's fault.

The system needs some serious oversight.
