Wow. I'm not surprised. When I was in the military, to be very honest, I somehow attracted many White and Hispanic men and went to mostly mixed clubs. I seemed to fit right in with their vibes, music, etc. Most of my friends and party folks were white. It's so crazy and ironic, compared to hanging out with my own race. But I had so much fun and missed where I was at.
I feel like this kinda missed the mark and was very close to gaslighting that we receive from colorists themselves. Especially, when the word “confidence” was introduced. Because they are already tell people who experience colorism that they are insecure and jealous, right? I think it’s important to say that the issue with colorism has NOTHING to do with how you see yourself and YOUR confidence. That is merely a response to the treatment of colorism. Being confident does NOT erase colorism but it absolutely does allow you to enjoy life in a world that is racist/colorist. It’s awesome that the young lady had a great experience, but it’s not one size fits all, nor does it dismiss all of the data/statistics and personal accounts that discuss plenty of nuisances of colorism, including location. And it’s almost like she was placing blame on the oppressed/marginalized? I would still believe it’s fair to say colorism would be at a high in a place like Miami. Let’s be mindful that Latinos experience colorism too.
Unfortunately, we cannot change a colorist/ a racist person mindset. The only thing we can change is ourselves, and that is being confident. She was merely shedding light on how she navigated her way in that kind of environment. And it worked perfectly for her.
Anyplace is worth moving to. Miami, is a diverse and vibrant city with a rich cultural heritage that offers a variety of opportunities in terms of career prospects, entertainment, and a vibrant arts scene. However, like any city, it has its own unique set of challenges and considerations. I would say do some research such as cost of living, job market, and community resources to determine if it aligns with your personal preferences and goals. From my friend in the video's point on view, she had a good experience but ultimately, it's a personal decision, and it may be helpful for you to visit and explore the area before making a final determination.
@@rynakinggpodcast We'll I've been, but living and visiting are two different things. I often hear, with the Latin community being so heavy there, the job market isn't so great for those of us, non Spanish speaking. Some places are a good fit for black Americans, especially the women, and some aren't. It's better just to visit vs living there. I guess that's what I was asking.
@AntiBlackMale I completely understand your point about the difference between visiting and living in a place. Trying it out by living there is the most effective way to determine if it's a good long-term fit for you. Regarding job opportunities, your skills and experience often matter more than your race. I wish I could provide more insights, but since I haven't lived there before, I'm afraid I can't offer a more definitive answer. 😔
@@rynakinggpodcast Oh, so you don't live there, gotcha. I thought you did. Yeh, see so many times I hear, it's all about the Latin community. If you're not bilingual, even with a degree, you're still out of the running.
I think she had a great time bc she feels great about herself and that’s what she projected, so that’s what she attracted
FACTSSSS

Oh wow really the irony ...
@@rynakinggpodcast Yes, strange but true.
To sum it all up, it's really down to attractive privilege.
Exactly

I agree. I think this conversation was a miss

Is Miami Florida worth moving to, being a Black woman.
