I think this is a both a sensitive and complicated question I hope to give due justice to. First I'd like to state that domestic violence, emotional and physic should always be fought against and be unacceptable as a way to interact between any parties or as a way to treat another person.

Second, the question can be re-framed to ask, "How and does the historic legacy of slavery effect the opinion of domestic violence in African American Households". This is where the complication lies. Unfortunately I do not have the answer, but I do have more questions which I believe are important to answering the first. My first question is: In the domestic African American community, and other regional communities that are descended from slave communities, more accepting of domestic violence? The next question, predicated on a positive answer: Did the brutality African American men who were enslaved by whites transfer the abuse to their domestic partnerships?

These are just two thoughts...
