Yes, I have found that most black sheep get to also play the role of scapegoat, even if it is sometimes undeserved.
I am the black sheep of my family... in more than just the ironic sense because my white mom remarried a white guy. I am not the family scapegoat, though. Thank God.

"The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers." (M. Scott Peck)
