Charlemagne’s dismissiveness about Amara La Negra’s issues with colorism and asking if it’s all in her head? Is similar to how SOME white folk responds to racism. SMH.
Candie P true
Him questioning Amara is similar to the comment “I don’t see color,” said by many white people to show that they are not racist. Although their intentions might be good, ignoring color can cause people to dismiss the argument that some people are more privileged than others in terms of skin tone.
Agreed
Ebro is a hypocrite. What Charlemagne did to Amara la negra is EXACTLY what Ebro did to Azaelia Banks! Go back to that interview.
I agree with you a 100%! For Charlemagne to be black and think that way bothers me. We shouldn't speak that way of our own people. We all know that race/ ethnicity have been an issue for people of the African Diaspora. Sad!
My respect for Ebro just went through the roof spoke straight FACTS
Kezmond Andrews hell yea
Kezmond Andrews Ebro been speaking these facts.
Kezmond Andrews Same!
Charlemagne’s & DJ Envy’s ignorance towards colorism is mind blowing
Shinel it was so sad to watch
Shinel envy is a light skinned supremacist.
as 'interviewer / journalist .... not sure .... but they fail to do any research...
Shinel and Charlemagne is the same man who tried to bleach his skin, but claims colorism isn't real. Are you sure it's not all in your head? That's the same trash question people get when they try to explain racism that they've faced. Are you sure it happened that way? Maybe you misunderstood?
Shinel shame!
Dear Ebro,
I had high respect before but this made it even higher, Thank you Sir. 💟🙏
Tiara Hall Official and i did not like how charlamagne handled the amera la negra interview .
Hell no! Ebro is a hypocrite. What Charlemagne did to Amara la negra is EXACTLY what Ebro did to Azaelia Banks! Go back to that interview.
Tiara Hall Official ebro speaks the truth
Tiara Hall Official ebro is a realist thats why i fux with him.Ebro keep it up u got real fans out here bro
Tiara Hall Official Me too
Charlamagne pretends that him bleaching his skin had nothing to do with his colorism insecurities, and he had the nerve to ask if it was in her head.
Tisha Symone I was thinking the same
you don't change something unless you're insecure...
Tisha Symone right !like how do act like it doesn't exist when u bleach
This guy is half white and he understands more about the oppression of black people than a full dark skinned man! I've realized that sometimes mixed people are more "woke" than full black people.
#factz
Laitalafraise unfortunately I would have to agree.....kapernick, bib Marley, old Jessie Williams....and now Ebro
Laitalafraise facts I agree.
동주 I'm sorry you have to go through that! I hope the mentalities will change in our lifetime.
Laitalafraise like Trevor Noah and Colin Kaepernick and Jesse Williams even though Jesse messing up with his wife his new girlfriend is a black lady I don't care who he dates but he understands colorism and what the f*** be going on some people choose not to but some people understand what it means and what it is could Jesse knows deep down inside just like every other mixed person knows a white person will never accept that them or like them why because they have black just like these have Asian people that are Asian and white need to understand that white person will never accept them and it goes the same thing goes for the one that I mix with white and something else why people do not like you and when they wake up and realize that then they will understand
thank you EBROOOO!!!!!!! as a latina and i have lightskin i was so offended that he said " are you sure thats all in your head " like really my guy ???? soooo just because you dont see it in your culture now , doesnt mean that isnt the case in other cultures. for once char seemed really small minded
lisaarroyo30 the crazy thing it is in our culture now.
he generally is lol
And it is in our culture every single day it always has been.
Me being a light skin Latina I know exactly what you are talking about. Univision, televisa, Azteca America, all of theses networks are not representing dark tones latinas. This needs to change ask any Latino out there darker tones are dismissed it’s a fact. ilia calderon the newest anchor women in Univision is getting hate for being an Afro Latina after Maria Elena Salinas who was a lighter Latina. They are claiming she is too “Morena”.
lisaarroyo30 For once???😅😅 Charlemagne is quite ignorant - regularly. And colorism is definitely in the black culture - Black, Latina, Asian - it's everywhere.
Get Amara down there & interview her!
Sasa yasss now !!
Right! She needs as much exposure as possible to represent all afrolatinos
Sasa yes, please. Thank you for saying that.
Sasa yes please
TheWannabmodel90210 To me she represented all dark skinned women!
Charlemagne didn't start getting shows, tv opportunities and book deals until he bleached his skin... #Ooooooops
Kennedy Linder 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
In Papoose voice " FACTZ" 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Well damn 😂
*BURN* HE PLAYIN UP!
He didn't bleach his skin. His face had discoloration on it that he had successfully treated and removed. th-cam.com/video/NBJsOg5xkfo/w-d-xo.html
Y'all have to remember that Lupita is "foreign black". That's more acceptable than "regular" black girl from around the way.
Ebonee Horn Yes. Light skinned black women and foreign black women are more acceptable than black women in general.
Amelia Watkins You mean American Blacks*. Stop saying blacks in general. You guys do not have the monopoly on blackness, and you thinking that is the very reason why CTGoddess was struggling to understand how you can be black and Latina at the same time.
Javan uHnah I think you missed my point. And I don't need you to tell me ANYTHING about being Black . I'm very well aware of the African diaspora. Thanks, but no thanks for your input.
Ebonee Horn I was responding to Amelia Watkins, ergo "Blacks in general"
Moonpie I said what I said.
Mad respect for hot 97, they always keep it 100,000%
Wow! Realness.
"Everything abt 'Hot 97 is dope."
Bring her on PLEASE!!!
He listened!!!
Yeah CTG definitely missed the mark during that interview. He sounded like those clueless White people when we gotta explain our struggle to them. Sad thing too, he still seemed like he didn't understand the problem. Very sad.
He did.
It's so strange because on his Brilliant Idiot podcast there were these two girls who literally explained everything Amara said in THOROUGH detail like I'm sure he wanted to play dumb for clicks
BelizeHunni i literally just said the same thing in reply to another comment.
Charlemagne is a troll/agent. He is trying to start a narrative.
DatBoyC 88 word
Sometimes it be your own people putting you down, Char showed his stupidity and dropped the bomb. What pisses me off is the fact that he can't say "I'm sorry, I didn't know." He keeps going around the issue, his stands for black culture are two sided🙄 like his face...two colors.
He was acting like sexism and racism and all the "isms" just disappeared, like no! There's definitely been progress but people still got hate!
When I went to mexico I seen Mexicans darker than me, super beautiful doing the cleaning and cooking in the resorts, while the lighter skin ones were the hostess so he was on point 👏👏 its real
Racism towards indigenous people in Mexico is extreme.
2:55 Why do dark skin Black guys (NOT ALL but alot) always suggest that dark skin, Black women's, anger comes from insecurities alone? Do they not see the societal factors??? Do they not think about where said, "insecurities" may stem from??...Do they not realize they are dark skin themselves?🤔
Mia Carter Preach #FACTS
Mia Carter Exactly....as they treat white women like queens
Mia Carter exactly, a lot of darker skin black men are just as insecure and suffer from self esteem issues as well. Men, esp black men, are not good at articulating it because of their pride. So they displace their issues on darker skin black women (without resoluting their internal conflict) and date someone lighter or whiter, all in the name of "preference". Its a shame.
Don't alot of black men go for black women tho and then there's black men who like dating all types. Just because someone picks somebody of a lighter shade or just another race don't mean they despite their own kind. Just because someone picks someone who ain't as black as you don't mean they don't like darkskins. Maybe he didn't like you specifically, maybe you need to step your game up and then most black women prefer going for the players and thugs, but don't give the good black man a chance.
It's not just African and Latin cultures. It's experienced all over the world. It's sad how different races view dark skin within their own race. We need more documentaries and discussions about this and where it stems from.
Sleepydiva504 yep Australia, India,
+Sleepydiva504 Historic colonization, global media, all are factors in colorism. Europeans didn't only colonize the Americas. Historically, different European groups invaded and colonized most of Africa, large parts of Asia, India included, Australia, large parts of the Middle East , etc, and in colonization, imposed their standards of beauty.
Then in certain lighter skinned Asian countries, historically"poor" people who did the labor jobs in the sun often were darker skinned because of laboring in the sun day in and day out, whereas wealthy people were mostly indoors and/or shaded most of the time, so in many of those cultures, light skin became associated with wealth and status and darker skin associated with poverty and manual labor, and wealth and status is always considered "beautiful."
Then there is the modern global media, which is controlled by people with certain set of phenotypes, and markets certains complexions as the standard of ideal beauty, and people absorb that into their subconsious. Media is an extremely influential force. This is why adequate and appropriate media representation is so important for people of color.
@@davidelliott1594 Intestering stuff.
This all lives matters comment 😐
We know we're it stems from. And if you don't know you need to educate yourself ( not you speaking in general) people wanna forget and place blame on each other for this issue.
Thank you Ebro!! Finally someone with some sense
I like Charlemagne a LOT and Envy ite but they wasn't trying to take her seriously for the reason that she's from Love and Hip-Hop. She brought character, wisdom, beauty and intelligence! Angela Yee was the real MVP because whether they expected Amara to be that deep or not I felt Angela went into the interview open minded and ready to not mock a interview. They'll learn but defo had to hold an L.
Exactly nobody is giving Angela her props. Especially as a light skinned woman I was proud of her for listening and trying her best to defend Amara against those two idiots.
Speak that truth Ebro...
what's that IG tho
MzInconspicuouss
Ebro saw Charlamagne and envy fucked up the other day and capitalized immediately smh. .
Eric.L.Xiques lol sad
But was it sad when they did it 🤷🏿♂️
Eric.L.Xiques true
You gotta catch the rebound
And.
You think sammy sosa is turning his skin white for the hell of it? lmao
Thank u Ebro for speaking up for Amara
Where are all the dark skin women at Hot97 -
exactly
Right.....
That Foxx girl was on hot97
I love you Ebro!
Blosca Abate me too!
Yes! They should have interviewed her.
I like Ebro's no-nonsense side at the beginning of this video. When/if they interview Amara, they'll know how to give the respect she deserves.
Jesus Reigns
Thanks I'll check it out✌
Look at Angela Bassett great actress she don't get no recognition
ATL 1
Pretty sure Meryl Streep is 70 too & she’s one of the most renowned female actress alive.
I truly appreciate and applaud amara's bravery and courage!! She's resisting against what she's witnessed to be a real prevalent issue! And also I applaud her mother for just affirming her child and standing by her. They are both strong and fierce brown women.
It's not just in Hollywood or high-level celebrities, it's even in subliminal things like music videos where they mainly case light skin or non-black women as the romantic interest or in commercials or even as love interests in real life. This is nothing new and isn't anything different just because it's in Latin America. Black people, not matter your nationality, were colonized, especially in the Americas, and STILL suffer the effects of white supremacy. Hell, it's not even just Black people, but all people of color who experience this. It's a systematic structure that was implemented hundreds of years ago and that was meant to last for generations, and unfortunately, it's still working.. and we keep falling for this bullshit.
Akilah Porter I won't spend money on anything that doesn't have black women in it... I don't support rap anymore, I barely watch news (I'd rather read it), I'll watch movies for free.
Definitely
If your mind is blown by this..imagine living it EVERYDAY ..let it marinate .
I think Charlamagne straight up doesn't like black women unless they're Dominican like Cardi or Tahiry. And we know how Dominicans feel about black people...
High Guise how they feel? Honest question because I don't like them anyway.
i thought amara was dominican
What cardi B is not like real big about her race she promotes her music and I think she's leaning more towards being black in America versus Amara La Negra really pushes the fact that she's afro-latina
I have met lot of dark Dominican who loves dark people.
I love how smart Ebro is 😌❤️
Missgermany ! Very educated and well rounded
Missgermany ! Exactly
Full black man on Hot 97 sitting in the corner saying nothing. This madness is viral
Jerome Owen He never does fool
Guys, don't jump on the dark-skinned brother on this show without knowing the dynamics of the show. Like someone said here, he never says much. As for Charlamagne, he has a history of doing the wrong thing when a topic calls for seriousness. E.g. with hillary clinton, and now with Amara. And don't forget he has two co-hosts who let him do so.
Jerome Owen He did say something if you listened to entire thing. Smh At 2:48
Jerome Owen I noticed that too. On some parts he was actually giving Ebro the side eye. Smh... Dark skin men sometimes can be more treachous to dark skin women then white men can.
Dominique Sampson I spotted his side eye too lmfao.
This is great but hot 97 doesn’t seem to have any dark skinned women.. 👀
Moonpie OHMARTHA didn't say only. She brought up a good point. They can't find any dark asking ppl to work there? maybe they do, but aren't visible, if so, why not? Gotta put ya money where ya mouth is
Why didn't y'all invite her first, then? We can all comment after the fact.
Tot Morgen true
Jeeeeeeeez💪💪💪💪💪
Tot Morgen good point
That’s a dumb comment and it’s completely beside the point at hand!
ThaGeneralify how you know they didn’t
After seeing that interview I was regretting buying Charlamange's book .... Ebro be telling some truth 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I think that the bleaching got to charlamagne head
Kimleerose bleach went To hisnbrain
I would just like to add that Lupita is African, not African American. I don’t believe an African American that looked like her could get anywhere.
Monique L why do you say that
Toni Lovemore I say that because I haven’t seen it. I have seen very few female actors or artists that are dark skin, but when they are, there hair is either relaxed or weaved up.
An African American wouldn't look like Lupita. People look at me and ask me where im from because I am from somewhere else. Both my parents are African and so are Lupita's. I've met a few ADOS who look African but they're mannerisms are (black) American 🗽
Gabriel Union but I don't know if she's A-list.
I knew this was coming and as much as I hate hot 97 honestly Charlamagne and envy had it coming. They were mad dismissive and were acting ignorant. They acted as if just because a few ppl of her complexion have got recognition doesn't mean their isn't still room for improvement. colorism is real.
Yes! Thats what Monique was trying to tell us about the amount of money we as blacks get paid.
Something is giving me a light glimmer of hope: look at the Like/dislike ratio in this video vs The breakfast club's response video. People are getting woke to the struggle, we have a long way to go, but we're getting there.
Ironic how y’all don’t have that many BLACK Women on HOT97, Congratulations, y’all played y’allself!
Paul Murillo They used to have Scottie Beam on there but she left for another opportunity.
Paul Murillo that's what I'm saying from the beginning here in New York we have 3 r/b stations and all hosted by non black or mostly light skinned people plus owned by whites we have to do better and it's not an educational thing because u know a lot of people of color that can hold the seats
You have point.
Paul Murillo 😂
Paul Murillo what Hot 97 is doing has nothing to do with what they're talking about they're talking about comments that were made during an interview they're acknowledging there was a problem why are we talking about who they have on their show hosting it do they control that? They addressed his insensitivity what the f*** is the problem?
Thank you ebro for not being bias about bclub and speakin straight facts about ignorant cthagod
Ebro thanks for talking about colorism
Thank you Ebro!!! I felt the damn way!!!!
Even bad Publicity is a good thing for Charlemagne... smh 🤦♂️
Until they discuss the hatred Dominicans spew against us Haitians and other Blacks , I don’t give two craps about their issues.
Prissy FACTS 🏅🤜🏽🤛🏽
I understand what you're saying but why is one black persons struggle more important then another? No doubt how Haitians are treated is disgusting as all hell(and reason I personally refuse to visit D.R) but any black persons problem is a black problem..point black period. Just like the Haitians are being treated because of what they look like(black) her and others are getting treating because of what they look like(black)
Prissy unfortunately I think that isn't really the path either but i understand and respect your stance. I have Dominicans Puerto Ricans in my family and they can be the same exact way. Unfortunately our race has been completely turned against one another and taught to hate one another. I know i dont know the situation down there but you guys are right next to each other and the fact that the difference is so extreme is sad. Just like here.
Discussing issues of colorism in the Latin community also addresses the hatred Dominicans have for Haitians. Part of the reason why Dominicans look down on Haitians......their BLACKness.
But there are Dominicans of Haitian background.
Also this isn't just a Dominican thing.. Dominicans aren't the only afro latinos
Thank you for this "Adult" conversation. I'm getting sick of the other crews closed minded, one sided interviews, and childish comment. Straight played themselves !!!
Yes listening to adults talk, so much better.
Also Latin American countries didn't have Civil Rights movements for people of African descendant. And many Latin countries had the same history of African slavery as we did. More slaves were sent to Brazil than the US.
Thank you guys for talking about this issue .
Bro if he don't give his self and envy Donkey of the Day.
First black woman to read the news in Brazil happened in 2000.
Yo this interview is nothing but FACTS! 👌🏾🙏🏽
Got to agree with Ebro. CTG's ignorance was baffling. Dark skin brothas have there own Dark vs Light skin rivalry. Not as bad as dark women but it happens.
DJ Envy too
This is not a black woman issue in Latin America, this is a black woman issue right here in the US. Black women have been trying to say this for ever but no one listens and we are dismissed, disrespected--daily, moment by moment. Black men perpetrate this issue against black women more than any group of people here in the US. Amara, is actually talking about all black women. She is right.
Ebro comes through in the clutch once again.
Yea there is racism. It's sucks. Culture and race are two very different things.
Ruben Casanova everyone wants to be victim
MayneH yes at times too many
Who the hell wants to be a victim? There's no winning in that. Amara is right. I am a 49 year old Latina, and I have yet to see the Spanish channel change up their way of diplaying latinos.
I applaud this show for having this conversation. Many people don’t use their platform to discuss these issues. Neither do many of them offer other aspiring artists into the limelight. It is a known fact that colorism still exists worldwide today.
Did anyone else notice how quiet the dark skinned man in the room was; and when he did speak, he (very slyly) tried to on some level defend Charlamagne. "See, he was coming from the standpoint of", "Black female insecurities", "I GET THAT". It was subtle, but he was (on the low) coming to Charlamagne's defense. I wonder how uncomfortable it was for him to sit with these light skinned men who were GOING IN on this mentality and stating the OBVIOUS when (on the low) he probably shares Charlamagne's sentiments. Just watch his body language and his expressions. He's suspect.
Get her on the show Ebro. Interview her properly I know you guys will be more attentive.
Definitely agree on this one
I respect Ebro soooooooooooooo much for this. My respect for him is through the roof.
People might want to go watch the FULL interview and not the short clip! Perspective and information is everything!!!
Exactly! I found it ironic him telling her if it’s all in her head? He was just waiting to counterattack her on anything.
So the black dude in the corner just justified Charla's comments " like I get what he was trying to say , like it's in your mind, because you can hold your own self back" then the white dude had to interrupt and check him to keep him on topic " Ebro's question was....."🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ Then he just sits there for the rest of the interview with that dumb look on his face.... black men need help 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
No he was basically repeating what charlamagne was trying to say and then followed up in his own words saying “but that doesn’t stop societal effects” and then goes to say she a model
Essentially saying even if that was true and she was “in her head” that doesn’t stop the negative way society sees you and treats you as a dsbw
Ebro please continue to speak the uncut truth brother. MUCH respect to you
💖This is why I have a crush on Ebro. 💖 I know there have been 2 or 3 dark skinned Black women on Hot 97 over the years too. Big Up!
My mind is telling me facts
@Ebro I got a new respect for you✌💜 brother....
black skin men gotta step up. loving Ebro right now. so conflicting the mixed dudes is riding harder that the dark one for sistas
Ebro is definitely right on this one. I listened to the interview the day of and said the same thing!
ebro in the am >>>
TALK UP THE TINGS DEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FKIN FACTS!!!!!! Ughhh, I can't believe charla's ignorance got me cosigning Ebro
Thanks that Ebro acknowledged this.
I LOOOOOOOOOVE THIS!!!! Come through with the truth!
No one should take non Afro Latinos/hispanics seriously when they complain about discrimination as well as a lot of these black male artists
97 hot they aint gettin those interviews, and gettin those headlines
man I respect Ebro and the crew to the upmost on this one. I agree 100% 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Humanity has a big issue as a whole on all levels period. Amara La Negra is brave, loving , interesting and she is real as in she speaks the truth. I hope things goes well with her and those that are like her will speak up too. We all should learn from each other and respect each other. I feel at times we goes around in circles. Amara La Negra i respect you big time.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Congratulations you PLAYED yourself
Ebro went in! Total FACTS- appreciate that!!
Put on for us Afro latinas 🤟🏾 we here! 🇧🇿🇳🇮
You forgot Viola Davis!
Issa Rae, Kelly Rowland, Idris Alba, Gabrielle Union, Tika Sumpter, Naomi Campbell
Phil Ford 6 people.. wow
Phil Ford 😂😂😂 I hate when 10 people make it and that discounts all the thousands that don’t
Octavia Spencer, Viola Davis, etc.!!!
Phil Ford out of millions,,,,, congratulations You played yourself 💋
Lmao so anytime someone complains about race in America, I'll just say "what about Jay Z".
Wow thank you Ebro! You're the best!!!!! You just gained a loyal fan.
For the people who don't know she is Black/African that speaks Spanish a European originated language. Just like Puerto Ricans, Cubans, Haitians, Jamaicans and Africans Americans. They are African people that happen to speak Spanish, French and English.
According to the Real Academia Española, the primary use of latino in Spanish is to refer to the people of the Lazio (Latium) region of Italy. The fifth definition listed is for the grouping of Romance language-speaking people of Europe.
I LUV EBRO👏👏👏👏👏👏
This is so profound. I just watched that interview and I was so disgusted with Charlemagne and and envy... the ignorance and the bullshit... they ate Cardis' ass when she came on there but they shifted on Amara the WHOLE interview... colorist...
Thank you Ebro for keeping it 1000%! You hit the nail on the head bro. I actually respect you even more than ever after you took it upon yourself to use your platform to put that simp in his place. I'm sorry to call him a simp, but he acted like one during that level. You talked reality and that just made me a fan of your for real my brother!!!
You all are so deep and keep it real. Colorism is an issue all over the world, and it needs to change. In 2018, there is separation within our race. Hopefully, we can change the way that we think. Thanks, for this video and God, bless!
Whole segment about cthagod
need2knowbasis187 so what?
Why do people keep forgetting about Zoe Saldana?
Gerard Meadows Bcuz she's married to a white man.. 😂😂😂
She's not Darkskin.
She isn't dark skin
Zoe is a safe brown and she looks racially ambiguous. Most racially ambiguous looking women are privileged over women who have distinctive black features. in the entertainment industry.
Gerard Meadows she shay she not black our Latina she thinks she white
EBRO I LOVE YOU! THANK YOU FOR STANDING UP FOR SISTAH'S! 😘
Rosenberg was so happy to smash the Congratulations button
Gabrielle union
LadyMs Moody 🤔🤔🤔 ehh
LadyMs Moody she's brown skin to me
And she's not popping like that
Issa Rae and Viola Davis are doing it BIG!!! Even Octavia Spencer is getting some great roles (Hidden Figures, The Case of the Time Castle) !!!
Tim Davis Okay but are they singers ?? Or Latinas??!
Ebro I hear you but that statement is not true for every person in an executive position or a position of authority in our society's entertainment industry. I think many people misinterpreted a lot about that interview. How is this life? There was nothing complicated about that interview. I understood exactly what Amara was saying that's why I did not notice any stupidity on Charlemagne or DJ Envy's side.
Ezethegreat One indeed.
More and more I'm rocking with ebro
My thoughts & views of Ebro has changed since seeing this. I can truly appreciate his stand on the topic.
