I just saw the black woman and the white guy explain their perspective, and all I can say is a black man with a white woman saying the same thing would not get a pass.
For me that's the perfect definition of hipocresy, i can date a white woman but then I would have to stop saying that I'm pro black your actions must go in the same direction that your words.
There is a difference between being "Pro Black" and "Afrocentric". Pro Black is about EVERYTHING possible being black/African/etc. Afrocentric is being concerned with and acting on black/African issues. So when you are Pro Black you are rooted in your Afrocentricity and Afrocentric is not pro black but does not mean they don't have a concern about things that affect people that look like them. You can't be PRO BLACK and date outside of your race but you can be Afrocentric.
@@stanleyb2320 Nah..by flipping the script it shows YOU are the dummy..! White alt-right nationalists claim pro-white too.. Would you allow pro-whites in black-controlled spaces..? such as a hbcu?
99% of blacks who marry outside of their race do so because they believe a white can give them a better life. They have already abandoned the Pro black struggle.
Being “pro-black” means not only “doing black” (e.g. patronizing businesses or mentoring black youth) but “living black.” You cannot fight oppression while lying down with your oppressor.
@@christianlendo7787 finally someone who sees the hypocricy In labeling yourself as pro one specific group. It empties you are not for the others. However the last part.i disagree with. Laying with the oppressor willingly would be a matter of race relations. People choosing to be together and not apart. It stops the decision which stops the oppression.
One problem with that argument is that not all white people are oppressors. Also, what other effective way is there to fight hate other than by spreading love? Make the races love each other, I think it’d have amazing results. Of course someone can be pro black and have a different race spouse.
Interracial dating is a very divisive topic. I just do not understand why are people so concerned and upset at other people's relationship. Mind yo damn business.
willemdee I’m pretty sure this video was about pro blackness. Nobody’s pressed about swirlers like that. All we’re saying is go & stay gone, nobody wants swirlers around.
So she said that a woman can do it but a man cant......ya dont see the bs. Tommy Sotomayor is right they dont want black men to do it but black women want too
No, and I don't support any black woman or man with my money or time that do. That includes Alfred Woodard, Donald Glover, Kanye West, Taye Diggs, Winston Duke, Lee Daniels, and anybody else. I did not see Black Panther and support any of these celebrities with my money. The problem that I have with people who say you can't be pro-black and date white is that their actions say something else. Yes, blacks can date whoever they want, as long as they are happy; everybody doesn't have to like or support it. Interracial couples have to be secure in themselves to be okay with their decision as I am with mine.
@@marlonmoncrieffe0728 There's no jealousy in the reasoning, I promise you. When it comes to IR relationships, a person's first obligation is to their community and culture, not their mate. When their community calls on them for something, they will do it at the expense and disappointment of their mate---that obligation is simply bigger because that's where and WHAT they come from, and you can't expect a person to just ignore everything that means. There are plenty bw out here that gonna hafta get their hearts broken in the worst ways before they realize that there are some things you just can't do because it's not in their best interest in the long run...and that's not just with relationships.
@@darknightstalker I did not say jealousy in the reasoning. Jealous that we can enjoy all these black entertainers that you boycott for whatever your silly reasons. If the narrow-minded black community and its strict culture does not want them, the greater umbrella American community and simpler culture will be more to take them in.
@@marlonmoncrieffe0728 Of that last sentiment, I have little doubt. The 'emotional equity' that summation would yield is actually quite the reverse. It's the "greater umbrella" AA community that's been made to be flexible on aspects of relationships (among other things) they shouldn't reasonably be flexible on, that directly correlate with other issues and is why sometimes being "strict" is in their best interest. Secondly, without getting too much off topic, wilful ignorance isn't something anyone of African descent can afford to indulge and facilitate...not for very long, anyway.
Everyone has a different definition of what it means to be pro-black, but I think if you marry outside of your race you aren't pro-black because I believe apart of being pro-black is building a life with a black person and creating a legacy with them as well. Whenever I see a black person with someone not black and they claim to be pro-black, I don't take what they're saying seriously.
@@olawaleoliver8459 a mixed child that is black passing is still black in the eyes of society. no one asks "wait, are you mixed?" before you are discriminated against. Also they are just a product of their parents, something they cant control.
I find this interesting because what exactly do you have to say about the black people that are dating other black people and still not treating them right or creating a toxic family structure or a broken one. Does that make them pro black? Continuing to date the same people but destroying the race from the inside seems very anti-black to me.
Terrible comparison. Being vegan means they can't eat meat. Does being black pro black mean I can't interact with non-black people? I am pro-black and believe in supporting black-owned businesses but I love all women. If that means I'm not pro-black then so be it. But I will still continue to do my part for the black community.
@@imdinma9826 Can a white person be pro black? Aslong as you support black people then you're pro black imo. I can be white person with white family or an asian person who adopted a black child and still support the black community and be against racism.
Christian Lendo No it does not. Pro-black basically means a black person is for their people. It’s also a lifestyle that encourage economic growth, promoting black love for black people, and encourages the black youth as a whole.
White boy here. I’ve always said I’m an equal opportunity lover I love all women size shape color. but in the past year I have been less attracted to white women they become crazy and entitled. I have also noticed that I have more in common with women of color then the white girls. I’ve noticed the women of color our family oriented. Loyal not looking for the next best thing. More open minded. But the biggest reason for me this white boy loving women of color is. You Beautiful women treat me the way a man should be treated.You don’t tear me down. But you also keep me in line and support My goals. You have the power in confidence but yet keep your femininity. You know how to keep a man well fed. You’ll be lucky to find a white girl who doesn’t burn mac & cheese even worse burning Ramen noodles. Thank you for giving this man hope that there are still real women out there. Stay beautiful ladies and my best wishes to you.
It’s hypocritical at its best. You CANNOT claim to be “pro-black” if you find yourself dating or marrying someone from the specific racial group that’ve oppressed us for centuries.
I feel that as a black woman it's a blessing to be able to have the choice to choose who you would like to be with 🎯 you can still be for the black community and date outside your race
Queen, i have an all "nubian" daughter from a nubian female that left her on my doorstep at the of age 3. I've been in my baby's life from day one and all i ever wanted to be was a great dad and give her the FAMILY i really never had for myself...her mom on the other hand, couldn't keep her legs closed from anyone!!! I found out years later that her mom came home early one day and caught her with two dudes in the backyard and i still don't even know where my daughter was at that moment within her care, Needless to say, i gave the mom a second chance a year and a half later only to endure the same slutty behavior, since then i've moved away with my daughter. She is currently an honors student in one of the most prestigious business colleges in America and one of the best International business programs in the world. Set to graduate this upcoming December. The bulk of her time were spent with me or my Mom, but i were a male single parent raising a female. I didn't let one bad apple taint the whole bunch BUT, at the same time i met a young lady. I needed patience and a life reset, she needed better direction and and someone she could trust to love without fear. Yes, she is white in appearance , but only in appearance. Recently, the culmination of years researching her family, we found out where her lips, high cheek bones, and wide hips actually originate. We discovered that her initial Euro family that came here were indeed Mulatto on her grandad's side. Truth is in my study, we are the oldest race on this planet, subsequently, we are the progenitors of whites, latins, asians and all in between. So your comment is 100% right is the main idea of this elongated reply, lol!
@@stellarelaxing4126 what I’m getting at is that it’s the same as a black man that dates outside his race. You can’t be pro black and date outside your race just because your a female.
Chuckie Cheeses Karazian even if they did everything u wanted it still wouldn't matter... u love white women & that's fine but my next question is how u & ur white woman gon help stop white supremacy bc all this other mess on this video & the stuff u talking is a distraction
No that is our problem we think we should educate others about our blackness. They already know, do you truly think they want you on the same level that would conflict with their Supremacy.
That thinking is what keeps our races divided. In America we dont have seperate societies from other races. We all gotta live with each other whether we like it or not. Might as well do what you can to teach other races. The more people that want to teach other races from all races. The better America is for all races. I'm black btw
I date interracially but I’m also, at the same time, pro-black. I bank black and support black businesses, and teach the children in my extended family about their culture and heritage.
Akanni I’m a lot more pro black than most black people. You don’t know what I do for the community. You have no idea. I do a lot. I don’t believe who you date is the biggest determiner of how much you contribute. Most black peoples only date black peoples, yet, don’t do shit for the community as a whole. That makes them pro black, and me not?🤔 I’m sorry, but there’s more to life than penis and vagina. They aren’t the most important things.
Alabama Sauce I wouldn’t call myself Afro centric. Maybe a little bit, but for the most part, no. I’m more pro black than anything. I don’t have to give myself to a black man to prove that. There’s more to life than dating. I contribute much more to the world than that.
Some of y'all so freaking ignorant. Black people had a whole movement for interracial marriages. Love doesn't see boundaries. I'm really disappointed in this comment section.
It's hard because a relationship at it's foundation is so personal and you don't want to go around telling people who to love. However, in the black community who you marry has a ripple effect. People need to understand that in order for the black community to grow and be strong we have to unify from within. Growing stable, successful black families and passing on generations of wealth to our black children. I find it very hard to take people who've gone outside their race for love seriously on matters concerning Pro Blackness. There's a disconnect that happens.
@@lorenzov.3686 Totally. It's bizzare how they preach the same thing as sick extremists that threw world into chaos and think they are good, woke people.
Chinese, Jews, Indians, And So Many Other Races Practice The Form Of Dating And Marrying Within There Own Race. Nobody Gets Upset About But The Moment Black People Start Talking About That, People Wanna Get Mad.
Chinese women go with white men and they're going with African men too. Example, Guangzhou, China in "Chocolate City" where the Africans are. Most groups marry in their own race and a portion open up to any race or seek out something different.
I don't think you can be pro-black and date outside the race because your attention will always be divided. Even if you find love and acceptance outside your race, there's still the issue of dealing with the family and friends who may not feel the same way. You will find yourself always having to consider their background, their culture, their issues first and integrating yours into the mix will always tend to feel uncomfortable, like you're forcing it. I've got two friends now who are dealing with IR relationship situations. One is a friend of a friend, whose ex told her TO HER FACE that he would always be better than her because he's white. Since that time she's consulted family and friends, has done some soul-searching and changed her policy on IR dating, but is also dealing with a nightmare of issues because children are involved and the ex is purposely making things difficult. The other friend is from high school, recently married and still enjoying the newlywed life. When I see her post pics with her new husband on fb, seeing how happy she is---as much as I wanna be happy for her, I can't help but count the days until she posts about something this guy says or does to her she simply can't ignore that not only ruins the marriage but destroys her notion that most black ppl grew up with before being aware, about how 'love conquers all'---the idea that you can find love outside your race because love is truly this transcendent ideal and ideally, it is. In a world where black people can't afford not to be aware of what's going on around them at all times, and where white people continually show us what they really think of us, being pro-black and pursuing IR relationships are like oil and water. It's probable, but not consistently possible. More vivid on paper than reality.
@@ceazardagreat9152 so what about all the black men who are dating white women and are happy Asians whites even Muslims none of them have this problem where a small group of girls from that culture think they have the right to tell there men who they can date it’s really starting to sound like some black women are just insecure also I’m not saying this is true but I’ve heard many black men online saying they date white women because apparently black women have bad attitudes that’s not coming from me it’s just what some black men have been saying
In my personal opinion you can't be problack dating, creating, and even marrying a nonblack persons at all. That goes for both the black women and especially the BLACK MEN. I also believe that black people should stop being so quick to throw the problack card around and place it on every black person that talking about issues that's affecting the black community.
i’d consider myself pro-black, even though my boyfriend is white. the reason i’m dating him is DEFINITELY NOT because he’s white. he is respectful, we share similar views for the most part and much more! you CAN be pro black and date out of your race. who you love is not your fault. i support the lgbtq+ community but people are QUICK to say love it love when it comes to them but can’t say the same for interracial relationships.
@@hardoblick7739 I understand what you're saying sure to struggle but that's not the same kind of struggle on that I'm talking about that's not Pro black
The proof is at 5:00 minutes in. Sonya Eskridge was awkward as HELL trying to explain being "pro-Black" with her white man next to her. That's why interracially dating "pro-Black activism" is questionable because of the need to not upset the white partner. #phukyofeelings
How about to be pro-human, pro-respect, pro-good, pro-critical thinking and pro-love? Keeping the culture part of Yourself isn't just declaring via clothes or the daily rituals to the outer world. It's the state of the heart. And the culture itself is supposed to lift up the person, not drag down to the dust. It's about the understanding the culture and the right interpretation...
Yes you can... 100%.. we gotta stop saying “Pro Black” = “Woke”... not everyone who is pro black is woke, not everyone whos woke, is actually in these streets making a problack impact.. Youre born black.. if youre actively making an impact to the black community when you are able to...youre problack...(IMO) People are always going to have an opinion about your via your significant other, even if he/she is the same race.. you cant please everyone, so why be concerned about pleasing anybody but yourself? Its your life.. not the neighborhoods or the city’s or the world’s You can be in an interracial relationship and be problack.. 100%.. But its probably alot harder to be in one but claim to be “woke”.. so you gotta weigh whats more important, be woke or be in love in a relationship (one of many that could work) that might actually work This argument is mostly a tool to steal peoples happiness.. just like “you aint black if youre mixed”... “you aint black if you didnt grow up in the hood”... why are we trying to kick people down so much? Thats a better question You are woke or problack if you choose to do so.. dating/marrying someone shouldnt make you any less decorated
Patty Smith why are you cursing tho? If you feel like dating/marrying outside of your gender or race makes you any less significant to your race or gender (bc some people are in sam sex relationships), then thats on you.. and its REALLY sad, pathetic even.. and its not about men.. men and women and trans/etc should be able to date/marry whoever they want.. period, point, blank.. All this question means is that there are STILL some people who aint comfortable with the idea of dating outside their race.. and in 2018, thats crazy, dumbfounding.. but hey, people still feel a way about OTHERS and THEMSELVES dating interracially
Renee Myricks that was NOT the question here... so lets try to stay on track To be crystal clear... being proud of your race.. being “Pro” your race.. doesnt mean youre a supremacist..

I disagree. If you marry someone from a different class and same race you still have to explain things to them guaranteed. I.e Hood-To-Educated. Otherwise you guys believe everyone should just date in their own class and continue all the same cycles
one of the main components of marriage is to learn from each other, it's a deeper type of friendship. you learn from each other to be able to work together and solve problems together, everyone should also be in pursue of education
I disagree. Even as a black man I’ve had to break down the plight of a black man to her and she didn’t truly have a true idea on what we go through not only physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
I always hated this topic. It's always if a black and white person dates. No one ever says anything if a black/latino/asian person dates interracially tho. But anyways, it's just hella annoying to have other ppl who don't know you, automatically judge what type of person you are because you're dating someone of a different race. Ppl be making it seem like if a black person dates a white person then they must be a MAGA hat wearing sell out. Why are there so many standards to being black?? If that person makes the other person happy and makes them a better person, why does it matter?? Damn chill tf out. Stop worrying about who other ppl are fucking. Worry about your own shit. There's bigger shit in the world to worry about. There's literally ppl dying every damn day over stupid mess, and we still talking about interracial dating?? I still support my people regardless of who I'm dating.

No you cannot be Pro Black and date outside of your race. You can be Black Conscious and date outside of you race. There is a difference between the two. Black conscious means that you are aware of and concerned about racial issues. Pro Blackness is when you put black people and your blackness first in all things. You put Black people first with regards to who you employ, who you patronize, who you vote for, and yes who you love and marry.
I think anytime we’re focused on other people’s relationships, it’s a sign that there’s something internal we need to look at. In this regard, I find it interesting that black and white people are the racial groups most scrutinized and least likely to engage in interracial dating whereas Latinos and Asians are those that are most likely. My theory is that it has to do with the way we define ourselves. See, Latinos and Asians are likely to know exactly what country their ancestors are from, speak their traditional languages or practice their traditional religion and customs. So their kids, as long as they speak to them in Spanish and take them to Puerto Rico from time to time for example, will be Puerto Rican. On the other hand, black and white are not cultures...they’re colors. So there is a genuine fear surrounding dilution of the colors themselves. Is that plausible?
If you claim to be pro black you should have an allegiance to your own (black) people first before anything. While i do believe that love is something you cant control, for myself I know that a non black woman, no matter how hard she tries, would never have the same connection or understanding of my culture, which is something that i deem very important. Also in my claim of being pro black I find black women as the most attractive because they are me. I don't know how you could be fully committed or connected to your community when you don't even have the foundation, which is the black family. You can be socially conscious but if a non black woman (or man) is on your arm, there are certain conversations where your opinion holds no weight.
I don't want to worry about other people of the same race, gender, nationality, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, etc, especially not after I come home from work. That's why I'm "pro me". You worry about you and I'll worry about me (and my friends/family). My "community" only consists of people I know and like, not people who look similar or share some common ancestry.
It’s not a Black person role to educate their non Black partner. Pro Black is being loyal and committed to your race. A Black person dating a non-Black person is NOT pro Black.
As an anti-capitalist my political beliefs are also my morals, and they're very much a reflection of the systems we live under. It's just easier to be in relationships with WOC who are forced to understand with those systems on a daily basis than to hope a white woman will have the same understanding or desire to have that understanding. I don't care what you look like and where you came from, I can not bring myself to give you any romantic attention if you think working class people of any color are lazy or have a victim complex.
And, I know people who consider themselves to be pro black because they won’t date non blacks, only listen to r&b, rap, and gospel, but won’t bank black or shop black because it’s “too inconvenient” or “too expensive”. 🙄
The white guy at the end.....dude...youre not black....you have no seat at the table bro....you aint black by association....see this is exactly WHY I CANNOT
Of course you can. Why is this even a discussion? The way people negatively react to interracial relationships shows that all races are capable of racism and prejudice. It's not a white thing, it's a human thing, which means anyone can have that corruption.
You can be pro black and date someone who isn’t black. What if a black woman/man doesn’t find a companion that is black that respects them, that matches their goals and expectations? Should she/he stay alone or settle for something that doesn’t truly makes them happy? I think you can’t be pro black if you date outside of your race and choose to ignore the injustice that your race is facing.
#NOPE! I think you can be socially conscious, but you're also going to have to compromise that consciousness in regards to who you build with. Being Pro Black does not mean being anti white, or anything else, It means that your primary focus and allegiance is to your people, which is pretty much the case with everyone else. I don't see how you leverage the dichotomy.
I use to think that you couldn’t be pro black and date a white person. But as a black women a lot of the black men in my area only date white females. I only get hit on my white guys anyway. So finally I decided to date a white guy. If anything it’s made me more black. Ppl still look. I have to explain a lot for things to him about being black. But at the end of the day he is a great guy.
Why would anybody want to be Pro Black?What are the benefits? Is there a life changing payoff involved? The black community has always been and always will be behind in the world. Yeah sure there are a few who have some overwhelming success, but even those few can’t compare to other races and what they’ve done.Being Pro Black appears to be a war that black people will never win no matter what lifetime we live in. It’s too exhausting of a fight and, ultimately is counterproductive and simply not worth it. Black people complain about the very problems they perpetuate and always are crying for change. But repeat the same behaviors. It’s pure insanity. It’s a huge lack of accountability on a lot of levels. We have always been our own worst enemies. So on that note why would any logical, rational person want to date within that community? It just doesn’t make sense. So interracial dating seems like the more feasible option. Why stay in a community where you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t? I totally get why black people seek love elsewhere. Whether male or female. Get away from the hypocrisy and ignorance. So don’t let the overrated idea of being “pro black” stop you from interracial dating. Move on and simply be happy.
Stfu if we wanna keep everything black that’s what we do every other races do the same they’re more likely to stick to they own kind so why do you have a problem when black people stick with each other? If you the type of blacks person that don’t like seeing us together and want us apart then say that!
Where you think blacks get their problems from?? The same people y’all sleep with every night if it wasn’t for the white man we wouldn’t have any problems.
I enjoyed this discussion. I know it's a slippery topic with alot of layers but I do enjoy seeing a black man and black women together making the black Family work! Society tries to fan the flames on our African American dysfunction but the ones who "stay woke" see the real power in the black Family unit
Oh yes I totally agree I love my own and date my own I can't destroy my bloodline by mixing with the oppressors forgot about slavery and the civil rights movement malcolm x would not be happy with yall that interracial dating
Dating out of your race isn't a terrible idea, BUT if you don't live around blacks, support their community or date each other you can't be considered PRO ANYTHING if there's no commitment to their financial support
Why do we want black people to be so political in who they date and marry and not in other areas? In what ways do you expect others to fight white supremacy other than who they date? How come we don't show the same disgust when we see black people supporting white businesses?
You can NOT be pro black and date outside your race!! My man is not black and I know even if I want to speak on black issues I am Black and I can but I am well aware that I am not participating in being pro black. Being pro black is wanting to further the black community. Meaning making beautiful chocolate babies 👶🏾.
Yes u can be pro black n date outside your race as long as u love your race n not hate your race but if u just found a good woman of a different race before a black woman sometimes it just happens n at da end of da day u want a good person on your level n shouldn't knock a person off just because of their race
I think you can but not a texture that is not similar to ur own like straight or mixed. Ik hella ppl are like black ppl have all texture of hair but most and the typical black woman have kinky hair so why are they wearing weave w type 1a? I understand weaves are a protective style but if ur gonna wear it use ur own hair texture because white and Asian ppl wear weave too but only ever in their texture. So why should we wear theirs their not wearing our and it makes black women look self-hating

@@simonesherron7921 Pro-black means black supremacist...just as Pro-white means white supremacist... Racism is not only on systemic or institutional, it is also on an individual basis...Thus blacks can be just as racist as whites on individual levels..

I just want to say you can date "black" and still practice self hate. Ive only dated black men and ive experienced the most prejudice with them. Dating someone witha specific phenotype, or hair texture or skin color exclusively is still self hate even if they "black"
I dated a dark black man who would sometimes (in his exact words) wish he was the color of a middle eastern Arabian (a light complexion). He also would claim that he loves his complexion.. but his preference is light skin or brown women.
Love doesn’t know color. Who you date has zero to do with whether you’re pro-black. Your actions determine that. If you’re supporting Black businesses, tutoring Black children and helping in other causes that uplift the community who you date or marry is irrelevant as it should be.
You can not say you support everything black and then stop at the black family, wherein you don’t seek to create and build a legacy of black love and black family, that continue to reinforce what is means to be black within your own boarders and within a world that has consistently sought to destroy us as black men and women. For me, marrying and dating outside your race is fulfilling something I read in a book in the 90s. And what I read stated that the new black would not be the original black man and woman, but the children of mixed race. For me that is scary. There has always been ideals that sought to erase us as a people, I think this is no different! Many of us look upon ourselves as a stain on society, and within our own families. The reality is that if we continue in this mindset, this along with the numerous murders of black men and women-by police, coupled with black on black crime, and the incarceration of such people. Black people may one day be just a memory. EXTINCTION OF BLACK! And is this a possibility? There is an annihilation taking place, and we keep going along with the plan set by them. Are we that naïve to believe that these same people that are pro police when a black man or woman is murdered by police, somehow change of heart takes place interchangeable to create the ILLUSION of being all for us one minute, and the next their not? NO THEIR HATRED TOWARD US IS REAL! Sorry that sounds like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. What they’ve displayed thus far hasn’t been enough for to say yes let me try this dating outside my race thing. If they are so for us why do we not see massive amounts of them standing with us? If they are so for us why are they so against black woman, the woman who gave birth to humanity. I ask; how does one find it slightly possible to love black men, yet hate the black women? It is black women and black men that give life to black babies-hence black man. When you display hate to a black woman to a black man, you are saying in truth you also hate that man, because he comes from black woman. You can not love a black man and not the one from whom he’s birthed. If it were not for the black woman there would be no black man to love. SO can you be pro black and marry or date white or other-NOT in these eyes. For others maybe.
Yes BUT both people have to be on the SAME PAGE. There are some black american men who are not woke/pro-black. Here is another senario, what if a black female dates/marries a guy who is black but wasn't born in the U.S. and isn't aware of our history and being pro-black? At the end of the day, I think it depends on the individual. And both two people are on the same level, wave length, and are aware of what's going on yes you can date/marry interracially and be pro-black.
Pro Black and dating out might be an issue but being For black issues and dating out is fine. There’s a difference between being Pro Black and wanting the total black experience like a Uma Johnson and being for black people.
Hmmmm 🤔 it's funny what(GOOD) black men experience and go thru when they try to date black women ...so what we suppose to do wait for a black woman to not pass us up...while we deny all the other women until the black woman recognizes. Why we dont get mad when black women date white or outside the race 🤷🏽♂️ I believe a black woman should be able to date who ever she wants.
@@destinyjames9601 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽😭😭😭🤷🏽♂️✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽I am Pro Black. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️I never said nothing about dating a bad black woman. I can tell u was flustered when u typed this bs comment. If u read correctly I said "What black men experience when they try to date within they're own race." Double standard bullshit FOH!!!🗣😂
Your biggest commitment to the black struggle is to have a black patner who will understand your everyday struggle.. A professor was asked how white people can help balck people,he said " dont sleep with them bcos it makes them weak and they tend to go easy on some issues...
The crazy thing about this issue nowadays if someone were to ask you do you date only black men and if you reply yes then they look at you funny. But for this topic I would say no for both men and women.
Yeah whatever - 94% say yes & they have no problem with it, until he/she "slips" up and says the "N" word ! Personally I say NO but sometimes you cannot control the heart ❤
I appreciate this conversation. I guess I wouldn't consider myself pro-black but I am pro-justice and will work to make sure that Black people have justice and equality in the USA. I am married to a White man and I agree it's difficult not to have the comfort in my own home of just being with someone who "gets it" but he and his whole family would get it even less if he weren't married to me. Sometimes people use the different cultures as a reason not to do it but often opposites attract and they make good partners not in spite of their differences but because of them. I guess the related question is can white people be pro-black?
@@moniqueloomis9772 No, they can't. They can be pro-equality, pro-civil rights, etc. They can't further the black family or community, so in my opinion they can't be pro-black.
He absolutely cannot but will feel entitled to be such. Do u hear any of us talking bout how we are "pro white?" No. And that's bcuz there's only a one-way street in that situation. Why would he even need to be "pro black" when he himself is not a black person? Does he need for his black wife to be "pro white?" for him or with him. Probably not, huh?
@@MaaThaRainbowGoddess I think American society is Pro-White including people who are not white. A non-black person who is pro-Black I think would be someone who invests in Black businesses and education, maybe uses Black-owned banks, things like that.
I am not legally obligated to date a black man and a black man isn't legally obligated to date a black woman. How are people going to accept black culture if they are kept away from it? Eventually, there's going to be a bunch of mixed kids in the world so who care who you date?! You can support and embrace your ethnicity while dating a white man/woman. You can support other same race couples. Theres black and white, black and asian, black and hispanic, black and every other race inbetween. Anybody who says you can't is ignorant. They're probably the same one who will kick out their child for dating someone with a different race. Blacks can be racist too and I see a lot of racist black people both in my community and my home. I'm tired of people telling me what I should/n't do because I am a black woman.😒
MADAMENOIRE NOT YOU CAN NOT BE PRO-BLACK AND DATE OUTSIDE YOUR RACE YOU CAN ANSWER YOUR OWN QUESTION . AND ALOT OF FOLK'S THINK LUST IS LOVE WHICH IS BAD ON THEIR PART 3/15/20

Darknight Emperor81 what the fuck does that mean? Successful or not df
She didn’t get a pass either and I’m pretty sure all of their real answers would’ve been no.
For me that's the perfect definition of hipocresy, i can date a white woman but then I would have to stop saying that I'm pro black your actions must go in the same direction that your words.
There is a difference between being "Pro Black" and "Afrocentric". Pro Black is about EVERYTHING possible being black/African/etc. Afrocentric is being concerned with and acting on black/African issues. So when you are Pro Black you are rooted in your Afrocentricity and Afrocentric is not pro black but does not mean they don't have a concern about things that affect people that look like them. You can't be PRO BLACK and date outside of your race but you can be Afrocentric.

99% of blacks who marry outside of their race do so because they believe a white can give them a better life. They have already abandoned the Pro black struggle.
Being “pro-black” means not only “doing black” (e.g. patronizing businesses or mentoring black youth) but “living black.” You cannot fight oppression while lying down with your oppressor.
Pro-black means black supremacist...just as pro-white means white supremacist...
No sugarcoating...

@@christianlendo7787 finally someone who sees the hypocricy In labeling yourself as pro one specific group. It empties you are not for the others. However the last part.i disagree with. Laying with the oppressor willingly would be a matter of race relations. People choosing to be together and not apart. It stops the decision which stops the oppression.
@@christianlendo7787 you have put this same response to damn near all of the comments saying you can't be pro black and date white
So all white people are oppressors? You're okay lumping an entire race of people together like that? Does that mentality help black people?
One problem with that argument is that not all white people are oppressors. Also, what other effective way is there to fight hate other than by spreading love? Make the races love each other, I think it’d have amazing results. Of course someone can be pro black and have a different race spouse.
Being pro black means keeping the black family and black love alive... can't do that with a white woman lmaooo
Narrow definition
obviously thats not the entire definition.. just the part that proves my point
Khadijah ME It's interesting that you said "white woman" but did not include "White men". I sense a hypocrite

No, and I don't support any black woman or man with my money or time that do. That includes Alfred Woodard, Donald Glover, Kanye West, Taye Diggs, Winston Duke, Lee Daniels, and anybody else. I did not see Black Panther and support any of these celebrities with my money. The problem that I have with people who say you can't be pro-black and date white is that their actions say something else. Yes, blacks can date whoever they want, as long as they are happy; everybody doesn't have to like or support it. Interracial couples have to be secure in themselves to be okay with their decision as I am with mine.
You are so right, the ones saying that are always dating outside their race.

@@marlonmoncrieffe0728 There's no jealousy in the reasoning, I promise you. When it comes to IR relationships, a person's first obligation is to their community and culture, not their mate. When their community calls on them for something, they will do it at the expense and disappointment of their mate---that obligation is simply bigger because that's where and WHAT they come from, and you can't expect a person to just ignore everything that means. There are plenty bw out here that gonna hafta get their hearts broken in the worst ways before they realize that there are some things you just can't do because it's not in their best interest in the long run...and that's not just with relationships.
@@darknightstalker
I did not say jealousy in the reasoning. Jealous that we can enjoy all these black entertainers that you boycott for whatever your silly reasons.
If the narrow-minded black community and its strict culture does not want them, the greater umbrella American community and simpler culture will be more to take them in.
@@marlonmoncrieffe0728 Of that last sentiment, I have little doubt. The 'emotional equity' that summation would yield is actually quite the reverse. It's the "greater umbrella" AA community that's been made to be flexible on aspects of relationships (among other things) they shouldn't reasonably be flexible on, that directly correlate with other issues and is why sometimes being "strict" is in their best interest. Secondly, without getting too much off topic, wilful ignorance isn't something anyone of African descent can afford to indulge and facilitate...not for very long, anyway.
Everyone has a different definition of what it means to be pro-black, but I think if you marry outside of your race you aren't pro-black because I believe apart of being pro-black is building a life with a black person and creating a legacy with them as well. Whenever I see a black person with someone not black and they claim to be pro-black, I don't take what they're saying seriously.
Then you have to wonder about mixed race children. Can they not be pro black?

I find this interesting because what exactly do you have to say about the black people that are dating other black people and still not treating them right or creating a toxic family structure or a broken one. Does that make them pro black? Continuing to date the same people but destroying the race from the inside seems very anti-black to me.
No OBVIOUSLY, can you be vegan & eat meat? 🙄

Terrible comparison. Being vegan means they can't eat meat. Does being black pro black mean I can't interact with non-black people? I am pro-black and believe in supporting black-owned businesses but I love all women. If that means I'm not pro-black then so be it. But I will still continue to do my part for the black community.

White boy here. I’ve always said I’m an equal opportunity lover I love all women size shape color. but in the past year I have been less attracted to white women they become crazy and entitled.
I have also noticed that I have more in common with women of color then the white girls. I’ve noticed the women of color our family oriented. Loyal not looking for the next best thing. More open minded. But the biggest reason for me this white boy loving women of color is.

Queen, i have an all "nubian" daughter from a nubian female that left her on my doorstep at the of age 3. I've been in my baby's life from day one and all i ever wanted to be was a great dad and give her the FAMILY i really never had for myself...her mom on the other hand, couldn't keep her legs closed from anyone!!! I found out years later that her mom came home early one day and caught her with two dudes in the backyard and i still don't even know where my daughter was at that moment within her care, Needless to say, i gave the mom a second chance a year and a half later only to endure the same slutty behavior, since then i've moved away with my daughter. She is currently an honors student in one of the most prestigious business colleges in America and one of the best International business programs in the world. Set to graduate this upcoming December. The bulk of her time were spent with me or my Mom, but i were a male single parent raising a female. I didn't let one bad apple taint the whole bunch BUT, at the same time i met a young lady. I needed patience and a life reset, she needed better direction and and someone she could trust to love without fear. Yes, she is white in appearance , but only in appearance. Recently, the culmination of years researching her family, we found out where her lips, high cheek bones, and wide hips actually originate. We discovered that her initial Euro family that came here were indeed Mulatto on her grandad's side. Truth is in my study, we are the oldest race on this planet, subsequently, we are the progenitors of whites, latins, asians and all in between. So your comment is 100% right is the main idea of this elongated reply, lol!

Some of y'all so freaking ignorant. Black people had a whole movement for interracial marriages. Love doesn't see boundaries. I'm really disappointed in this comment section.
That's a whole lie.
It's hard because a relationship at it's foundation is so personal and you don't want to go around telling people who to love. However, in the black community who you marry has a ripple effect. People need to understand that in order for the black community to grow and be strong we have to unify from within. Growing stable, successful black families and passing on generations of wealth to our black children. I find it very hard to take people who've gone outside their race for love seriously on matters concerning Pro Blackness. There's a disconnect that happens.

You asked your audience the question and they answered. You can't decide for them that they are now lying to you lol.
I don't think you can be pro-black and date outside the race because your attention will always be divided. Even if you find love and acceptance outside your race, there's still the issue of dealing with the family and friends who may not feel the same way. You will find yourself always having to consider their background, their culture, their issues first and integrating yours into the mix will always tend to feel uncomfortable, like you're forcing it. I've got two friends now who are dealing with IR relationship situations. One is a friend of a friend, whose ex told her TO HER FACE that he would always be better than her because he's white. Since that time she's consulted family and friends, has done some soul-searching and changed her policy on IR dating, but is also dealing with a nightmare of issues because children are involved and the ex is purposely making things difficult. The other friend is from high school, recently married and still enjoying the newlywed life. When I see her post pics with her new husband on fb, seeing how happy she is---as much as I wanna be happy for her, I can't help but count the days until she posts about something this guy says or does to her she simply can't ignore that not only ruins the marriage but destroys her notion that most black ppl grew up with before being aware, about how 'love conquers all'---the idea that you can find love outside your race because love is truly this transcendent ideal and ideally, it is. In a world where black people can't afford not to be aware of what's going on around them at all times, and where white people continually show us what they really think of us, being pro-black and pursuing IR relationships are like oil and water. It's probable, but not consistently possible. More vivid on paper than reality.

In my personal opinion you can't be problack dating, creating, and even marrying a nonblack persons at all. That goes for both the black women and especially the BLACK MEN. I also believe that black people should stop being so quick to throw the problack card around and place it on every black person that talking about issues that's affecting the black community.

Yes you can... 100%.. we gotta stop saying “Pro Black” = “Woke”... not everyone who is pro black is woke, not everyone whos woke, is actually in these streets making a problack impact..
Youre born black.. if youre actively making an impact to the black community when you are able to...youre problack...(IMO)
People are always going to have an opinion about your via your significant other, even if he/she is the same race.. you cant please everyone, so why be concerned about pleasing anybody but yourself? Its your life.. not the neighborhoods or the city’s or the world’s
You can be in an interracial relationship and be problack.. 100%..
But its probably alot harder to be in one but claim to be “woke”.. so you gotta weigh whats more important, be woke or be in love in a relationship (one of many that could work) that might actually work
This argument is mostly a tool to steal peoples happiness.. just like “you aint black if youre mixed”... “you aint black if you didnt grow up in the hood”... why are we trying to kick people down so much? Thats a better question
You are woke or problack if you choose to do so.. dating/marrying someone shouldnt make you any less decorated

If that person makes the other person happy and makes them a better person, why does it matter?? Damn chill tf out. Stop worrying about who other ppl are fucking. Worry about your own shit. There's bigger shit in the world to worry about. There's literally ppl dying every damn day over stupid mess, and we still talking about interracial dating?? I still support my people regardless of who I'm dating.
Factzzzzz dumbass topic.
It's still interracial. Asian is non black
I agree with you 100%, just because someone dated outside their race doesn’t make them any LESS black than they are.

No you cannot be Pro Black and date outside of your race. You can be Black Conscious and date outside of you race. There is a difference between the two. Black conscious means that you are aware of and concerned about racial issues. Pro Blackness is when you put black people and your blackness first in all things. You put Black people first with regards to who you employ, who you patronize, who you vote for, and yes who you love and marry.
Black Man, Black Women, Black Child. Its really that simple.
Then Black Women and Black Child.
I think anytime we’re focused on other people’s relationships, it’s a sign that there’s something internal we need to look at. In this regard, I find it interesting that black and white people are the racial groups most scrutinized and least likely to engage in interracial dating whereas Latinos and Asians are those that are most likely.
My theory is that it has to do with the way we define ourselves. See, Latinos and Asians are likely to know exactly what country their ancestors are from, speak their traditional languages or practice their traditional religion and customs. So their kids, as long as they speak to them in Spanish and take them to Puerto Rico from time to time for example, will be Puerto Rican.
On the other hand, black and white are not cultures...they’re colors. So there is a genuine fear surrounding dilution of the colors themselves.
Is that plausible?
Being Pro black means black everything...People who say different are just tying to justify their actions...You can't have it both ways....
Thank you. That's the best answer I heard on here.
I agree
If you claim to be pro black you should have an allegiance to your own (black) people first before anything. While i do believe that love is something you cant control, for myself I know that a non black woman, no matter how hard she tries, would never have the same connection or understanding of my culture, which is something that i deem very important. Also in my claim of being pro black I find black women as the most attractive because they are me. I don't know how you could be fully committed or connected to your community when you don't even have the foundation, which is the black family. You can be socially conscious but if a non black woman (or man) is on your arm, there are certain conversations where your opinion holds no weight.
Exactly
I don't want to worry about other people of the same race, gender, nationality, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, etc, especially not after I come home from work. That's why I'm "pro me". You worry about you and I'll worry about me (and my friends/family). My "community" only consists of people I know and like, not people who look similar or share some common ancestry.
Right i wonder when ppl are gonna stop giving a crap abt what they look like and just learn to love those that love them
NOPE
Yes
I agree
It’s not a Black person role to educate their non Black partner. Pro Black is being loyal and committed to your race. A Black person dating a non-Black person is NOT pro Black.
Exactly!!!
As an anti-capitalist my political beliefs are also my morals, and they're very much a reflection of the systems we live under. It's just easier to be in relationships with WOC who are forced to understand with those systems on a daily basis than to hope a white woman will have the same understanding or desire to have that understanding.
I don't care what you look like and where you came from, I can not bring myself to give you any romantic attention if you think working class people of any color are lazy or have a victim complex.
And, I know people who consider themselves to be pro black because they won’t date non blacks, only listen to r&b, rap, and gospel, but won’t bank black or shop black because it’s “too inconvenient” or “too expensive”. 🙄
The white guy at the end.....dude...youre not black....you have no seat at the table bro....you aint black by association....see this is exactly WHY I CANNOT
Of course you can. Why is this even a discussion? The way people negatively react to interracial relationships shows that all races are capable of racism and prejudice. It's not a white thing, it's a human thing, which means anyone can have that corruption.
blackmanwithcomputer so a white person can date a black person but still be a white supremacist?
blackmanwithcomputer no u cant
blackmanwithcomputer exactly
No you cant.
You can be pro black and date someone who isn’t black. What if a black woman/man doesn’t find a companion that is black that respects them, that matches their goals and expectations? Should she/he stay alone or settle for something that doesn’t truly makes them happy?
I think you can’t be pro black if you date outside of your race and choose to ignore the injustice that your race is facing.
Nope pro black means black family
#NOPE!
I think you can be socially conscious, but you're also going to have to compromise that consciousness in regards to who you build with. Being Pro Black does not mean being anti white, or anything else, It means that your primary focus and allegiance is to your people, which is pretty much the case with everyone else. I don't see how you leverage the dichotomy.

I use to think that you couldn’t be pro black and date a white person. But as a black women a lot of the black men in my area only date white females. I only get hit on my white guys anyway. So finally I decided to date a white guy. If anything it’s made me more black. Ppl still look. I have to explain a lot for things to him about being black. But at the end of the day he is a great guy.

Same can be said for black men tho
Kufre Akpan Ew. Not showering? Like once a week showering?
@@NoName-sp5dp
When was that?
Why would anybody want to be Pro Black?What are the benefits?
Is there a life changing payoff involved?
The black community has always been and always will be behind in the world.
Yeah sure there are a few who have some overwhelming success, but even those few can’t compare to other races and what they’ve done.Being Pro Black appears to be a war that black people will never win no matter what lifetime we live in. It’s too exhausting of a fight and, ultimately is counterproductive and simply not worth it.
Black people complain about the very problems they perpetuate and always are crying for change. But repeat the same behaviors. It’s pure insanity. It’s a huge lack of accountability on a lot of levels. We have always been our own worst enemies.
So on that note why would any logical, rational person want to date within that community?
It just doesn’t make sense.
So interracial dating seems like the more feasible option.
Why stay in a community where you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t?
I totally get why black people seek love elsewhere. Whether male or female. Get away from the hypocrisy and ignorance.
So don’t let the overrated idea of being “pro black” stop you from interracial dating. Move on and simply be happy.
Stfu if we wanna keep everything black that’s what we do every other races do the same they’re more likely to stick to they own kind so why do you have a problem when black people stick with each other? If you the type of blacks person that don’t like seeing us together and want us apart then say that!
Where you think blacks get their problems from?? The same people y’all sleep with every night if it wasn’t for the white man we wouldn’t have any problems.
Buck
No, not at all
Dont confuse pro-black with alt-black
"Alt-black"? That's new lol
I enjoyed this discussion. I know it's a slippery topic with alot of layers but I do enjoy seeing a black man and black women together making the black Family work! Society tries to fan the flames on our African American dysfunction but the ones who "stay woke" see the real power in the black Family unit
The Black Man Woman & Child is the biggest threat to RWS.
Oh yes I totally agree I love my own and date my own I can't destroy my bloodline by mixing with the oppressors forgot about slavery and the civil rights movement malcolm x would not be happy with yall that interracial dating
@@MaaThaRainbowGoddess I agree
Dating out of your race isn't a terrible idea, BUT if you don't live around blacks, support their community or date each other you can't be considered PRO ANYTHING if there's no commitment to their financial support
These numbers dont reflect the people i know! Doesnt Pro Black mean Pro Black love as well?
Why do we want black people to be so political in who they date and marry and not in other areas?
In what ways do you expect others to fight white supremacy other than who they date? How come we don't show the same disgust when we see black people supporting white businesses?
You can NOT be pro black and date outside your race!! My man is not black and I know even if I want to speak on black issues I am
Black and I can but I am well aware that I am not participating in being pro black. Being pro black is wanting to further the black community. Meaning making beautiful chocolate babies 👶🏾.
Yes u can be pro black n date outside your race as long as u love your race n not hate your race but if u just found a good woman of a different race before a black woman sometimes it just happens n at da end of da day u want a good person on your level n shouldn't knock a person off just because of their race
Can you be problack and wear a weave!
I think you can but not a texture that is not similar to ur own like straight or mixed. Ik hella ppl are like black ppl have all texture of hair but most and the typical black woman have kinky hair so why are they wearing weave w type 1a? I understand weaves are a protective style but if ur gonna wear it use ur own hair texture because white and Asian ppl wear weave too but only ever in their texture. So why should we wear theirs their not wearing our and it makes black women look self-hating
I think you can wear a wig and be PRO Black I’m supporting Black businesses aren’t I, and defining my hair thru the way that I want it to be defined not by anyone else
Can you’ve pro black and wear white fashion designers?
Mystery that’s systematically and institutionally impossible 🤦🏾♀️ everything passes thru the white man
@@simonesherron7921 Pro-black means black supremacist...just as Pro-white means white supremacist...
Racism is not only on systemic or institutional, it is also on an individual basis...Thus blacks can be just as racist as whites on individual levels..
You can date anyone and support what you want
I’m pro black but I will never stop dabbling with white girls.😍… they treat me to good.

I just want to say you can date "black" and still practice self hate. Ive only dated black men and ive experienced the most prejudice with them. Dating someone witha specific phenotype, or hair texture or skin color exclusively is still self hate even if they "black"
I dated a dark black man who would sometimes (in his exact words) wish he was the color of a middle eastern Arabian (a light complexion). He also would claim that he loves his complexion.. but his preference is light skin or brown women.
Me too. Just dealt with the most ignorant, selfish ninja who 'dates black' but is, colorist asf
Anyone with the presence of mind to reverse the scenario will clearly realize there's nothing wrong with dating outside of one's own race.
👀👀👀 what if white people are who’s around you? I feel like a lot of perspectives were left out of this conversation
Then u won't be pro black
I’m pro black I support black buy black and fight racism all around me.Everyone should support black. I believe in equality and was raised this way
No excuse I grew up in majority white area and took my ass to an hbcu for college
Love doesn’t know color. Who you date has zero to do with whether you’re pro-black. Your actions determine that. If you’re supporting Black businesses, tutoring Black children and helping in other causes that uplift the community who you date or marry is irrelevant as it should be.
Lie
I will never date out side of my race I love the black woman
I love green women
Simp
You can not say you support everything black and then stop at the black family, wherein you don’t seek to create and build a legacy of black love and black family, that continue to reinforce what is means to be black within your own boarders and within a world that has consistently sought to destroy us as black men and women.
For me, marrying and dating outside your race is fulfilling something I read in a book in the 90s. And what I read stated that the new black would not be the original black man and woman, but the children of mixed race. For me that is scary. There has always been ideals that sought to erase us as a people, I think this is no different! Many of us look upon ourselves as a stain on society, and within our own families. The reality is that if we continue in this mindset, this along with the numerous murders of black men and women-by police, coupled with black on black crime, and the incarceration of such people. Black people may one day be just a memory.
EXTINCTION OF BLACK! And is this a possibility?
There is an annihilation taking place, and we keep going along with the plan set by them. Are we that naïve to believe that these same people that are pro police when a black man or woman is murdered by police, somehow change of heart takes place interchangeable to create the ILLUSION of being all for us one minute, and the next their not? NO THEIR HATRED TOWARD US IS REAL! Sorry that sounds like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. What they’ve displayed thus far hasn’t been enough for to say yes let me try this dating outside my race thing.
If they are so for us why do we not see massive amounts of them standing with us? If they are so for us why are they so against black woman, the woman who gave birth to humanity.
I ask; how does one find it slightly possible to love black men, yet hate the black women? It is black women and black men that give life to black babies-hence black man. When you display hate to a black woman to a black man, you are saying in truth you also hate that man, because he comes from black woman. You can not love a black man and not the one from whom he’s birthed. If it were not for the black woman there would be no black man to love. SO can you be pro black and marry or date white or other-NOT in these eyes. For others maybe.
Hard NO!!
Still waiting? Lol.
This conversation really exposed that these women have issues with black men. The wholeness is often misandry in disguise
Yes BUT both people have to be on the SAME PAGE. There are some black american men who are not woke/pro-black. Here is another senario, what if a black female dates/marries a guy who is black but wasn't born in the U.S. and isn't aware of our history and being pro-black? At the end of the day, I think it depends on the individual. And both two people are on the same level, wave length, and are aware of what's going on yes you can date/marry interracially and be pro-black.
Pro Black and dating out might be an issue but being For black issues and dating out is fine. There’s a difference between being Pro Black and wanting the total black experience like a Uma Johnson and being for black people.
Hmmmm 🤔 it's funny what(GOOD) black men experience and go thru when they try to date black women ...so what we suppose to do wait for a black woman to not pass us up...while we deny all the other women until the black woman recognizes. Why we dont get mad when black women date white or outside the race 🤷🏽♂️ I believe a black woman should be able to date who ever she wants.

Can you be pro-black and wear European wigs all the time?
Your biggest commitment to the black struggle is to have a black patner who will understand your everyday struggle..
A professor was asked how white people can help balck people,he said " dont sleep with them bcos it makes them weak and they tend to go easy on some issues...
The crazy thing about this issue nowadays if someone were to ask you do you date only black men and if you reply yes then they look at you funny. But for this topic I would say no for both men and women.
Yeah whatever - 94% say yes & they have no problem with it, until he/she "slips" up and says the "N" word ! Personally I say NO but sometimes you cannot control the heart ❤
it's like saying can I smoke crack and still be drug free
Nope. There will always be something holding you back.
Yes
Girls, why we talk about it in 21 century ? Who cares what color women is . We all the same just some of us don’t know it .
I appreciate this conversation. I guess I wouldn't consider myself pro-black but I am pro-justice and will work to make sure that Black people have justice and equality in the USA. I am married to a White man and I agree it's difficult not to have the comfort in my own home of just being with someone who "gets it" but he and his whole family would get it even less if he weren't married to me. Sometimes people use the different cultures as a reason not to do it but often opposites attract and they make good partners not in spite of their differences but because of them. I guess the related question is can white people be pro-black?
Good question.
@@moniqueloomis9772 No, they can't. They can be pro-equality, pro-civil rights, etc. They can't further the black family or community, so in my opinion they can't be pro-black.
He absolutely cannot but will feel entitled to be such. Do u hear any of us talking bout how we are "pro white?" No. And that's bcuz there's only a one-way street in that situation. Why would he even need to be "pro black" when he himself is not a black person? Does he need for his black wife to be "pro white?" for him or with him. Probably not, huh?
@@MaaThaRainbowGoddess I think American society is Pro-White including people who are not white. A non-black person who is pro-Black I think would be someone who invests in Black businesses and education, maybe uses Black-owned banks, things like that.
@@ericwashington8998 I agree she asked a stupid question
I am not legally obligated to date a black man and a black man isn't legally obligated to date a black woman. How are people going to accept black culture if they are kept away from it? Eventually, there's going to be a bunch of mixed kids in the world so who care who you date?! You can support and embrace your ethnicity while dating a white man/woman. You can support other same race couples. Theres black and white, black and asian, black and hispanic, black and every other race inbetween. Anybody who says you can't is ignorant. They're probably the same one who will kick out their child for dating someone with a different race. Blacks can be racist too and I see a lot of racist black people both in my community and my home. I'm tired of people telling me what I should/n't do because I am a black woman.😒
MADAMENOIRE NOT YOU CAN NOT BE PRO-BLACK AND DATE OUTSIDE YOUR RACE YOU CAN ANSWER YOUR OWN QUESTION . AND ALOT OF FOLK'S THINK LUST IS LOVE WHICH IS BAD ON THEIR PART 3/15/20
What about the family aspect...black family is the foundation.
Exactly! a community it just a collection of families. If you dont have a black family then can you even understand what its like for black wives? black children?
All of you people who claim to be "pro black" probably don't even know what "greenwood" was in Tulsa Oklahoma.
