Racism is about power, wealth, and control... I'm so sick of people always talking about "ignorance" and "hatred" The people that created the racist system were educated and intelligent. They created the racist system to use lesser whites to help oppress other races (namely Black people) for them.
Adrienne is a living, breathing example of how women change when they're single. Last season you were phenomenal and now it's just like x10 and you look BREATHTAKING EVERY SINGLE VIDEO!!!!!!!!!
+Marie Claire Biron I hate it because it simply makes no sense. She's a woman who came from and was raised by a white man. It's what she knows! I think people are saying awful things to Tamera because they think she's the product of a black mom and black dad. Which proves their ignorance.
Yes! I super love their relationship. They really love each other and I know for myself, I'm always smiling as they interact with one another. Genuine beautiful love!

I wish they would've talked about systemic racism and not just interpersonal prejudice. There's a huge difference between everyday people treating one differently because of your skin color and there being a system in place where one is at a disadvantage because of the color of ones skin. As a talk show with all women of color, I'm glad they're beginning to talk about these things and I'm interested in seeing how far these conversations of isms will go.
+Isha King I agree. This segment was a bit disappointing but hopefully it's only the beginning and they'll have deeper and more expansive conversations about race in the future. Honestly, from the way Adam was talking and Tamera was agreeing with him, I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even believe in or acknowledge systemic racism...
+Dai Z Wow great point...got me thinking how will my husband be able to teach our sons as they grow about racism since he has never experience it himself. :(Got to look up on that ASAP.
Isha King, Good point and I like the way you think. But I highly doubt it they will go deeper. Many find it uncomfortable, so they just scratch the surface. These four women are good woman and also smart, but they are not the kind that will dig deep into issues whether it is Politics or Race. It takes a very special different kind of women. The kind of Women that lead the "Civil Right Movement" and the "Revolution", and "Challenged Slavery and fought to abolish it". They were soldiers of their time and we are now enjoying the Fruit of their labor. Few examples: Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks, Sojourner Truth, Ella Baker, Daisy Bates, Mary McLeod Bethune, and Maya Angelou, just to name a few:)!
When I was 7 I had this girl we were friends since nursery and once she said “I can’t play with you because you’re black” and I didn’t understand it till I told my mum and honestly I was crushed
I can relate and understand what Tamera is talking about because I'm black and my parents talked to me about racism and they told me about certain issues that I will deal with on being black in America and the black experience such as driving while black, shopping while black, and I have to work really hard while black and my parents also taught me how to respond to the police when I'm confronted with one. I'm glad that the real is talking about real issues this season.
People who say that they don't see color don't necessarily say it with any racial bias undertones, but this is honestly a very problematic and unfortunately overused phrase. When people say things like this, and how we are all one human race, it takes away diversity. Race includes culture, language... basically all that is different about us. We SHOULD see color but not discriminate against it. Let people know that this isn't an OK thing to say, but do so gently as I'm sure when they say it, they mean no harm and only want to convey that they don't judge anyone because of their skin tone.
Right i like adam but i think its a cliche answer because he might not but other people do and will say something and the real is a couple people might say something to their daughter .I think even if they teach her things she will still get hurt by things said you cant protect her from that
+miss holiday season Adam didn't say he did not see color, he said he doesn't care about color, meaning it doesn't influence the way he treats someone. There's a distinctive difference.
+Michie Oo that could be a wrong step, putting unnecessary fear on a child. I think the act of preparing your children for racism, could be a racist thing itself.
If you wait to talk to your children about race (as a black person), that means you probably aren't teaching them their history and ancestors, which is very important. Don't let these public schools teach your child about being black before you get a chance to do it. Teach them from day one to be proud of who they are and how they look, and teach them to respect people's differences. There are different races and ethnicities and nationalities in this world, and there's nothing wrong with that. I don't believe that children should be blind to that until something bad happens, but hey, you raise your kids how you want to, but I will make sure that when my child runs into some racism, they won't have to ask me what happened, you'll already know how to react.
The Housley family is our families favorite TH-cam show! Love this family! My wife is Persian and kids 1/2 we been thru this for years! God Bless THEM!
i remeber being 7 years old and i went roller skating with my friend, who happened to be white. as a kid (military kid at that), color was not often a big deal. u really do only see people. but anways, another friend said, "i didn't know your mom was white". she wasn't of course it was my friends mom. but i remember thinking, "so what if she was?" mainly cuz "white" wasnt how i saw them at all. i just wonder why other kids get color stuck in their brain so young. and also my baby cousin years ago said, "i hate white people". i firmly said ( and i was barely a tween. lol) "do not ever say that again. that is not nice &there is no reason to feel like that. " its so sad how adults make their kids minds toxic.
Such a fluff answer. I expected a bit more thought and not the regular "we don't see color" and "this generation is not like that" nonsense. They should address how they'll talk to their kids about violence and systematic issues, which are more relevant and problematic than some kid calling you the n word
1GoldRunner I appreciate color. Its beautiful and important, and I want people to recognize mine. My color represents a part of my culture and experiences, as I'm sure yours does. The problem arises when we subject people to systematic abuse, discrimination and all that due to color.... And as parents to a young boy who will most likely experience these issues, they should be more aware and more prepared.
1GoldRunner Aman best answer by far well comments. What I've been saying all along we spend to much time looking at a skin instead of a inner character. You could be black and have a white cousin but yet people are smart and don't know this.
I love Adam and Tamera but I don't agree with them at all.... When I have kids I want them to be prepared for the real world. I don't want them to walk in blind and then get their feelings hurt because they're different. I want my kids to be ready and speak up.
+NEVER_AGAIN So, racism is normal? Structural inequality is normal? Your White Privilege can afford you to say that but there's nothing right about it.
+NEVER_AGAIN Jewish, but you still have white skin. Historically, my ppl have struggled and continue to face racism-daily. My ppl are being gunned down on a daily basis by racist White authority figures... Innocent Black children are being gunned down. Don't tell me that I don't know what I'm talking about. You won't have to worry about your White kids being racially profiled. You clearly have demonstrated your ignorance because you can't articulate yourself without being disrespectful!
Why does Adam keep calling their relationship a "unique situation"? There's nothing weird or "unique" about it. You happen to be white and she happens to be black. That just rubbed me the wrong way.
That kinda pissed me off. I was like what unique situation? Interracial relationships are hella common. This segment made me look at him a little sideways....
This is why i loved Amanda on the show. I wish they talked about institutional racism rather than personal experiences. This is a watered down conversation.
Like Tamara said she has such a blended family from Filipino, Black, white etc. honestly I think when people come from backgrounds like that it's hard for them to be racist because they're interacting with people of different races and maybe even religions. For me I think I'm the same way, I was blessed to have a family from different religious and racial backgrounds its hard to realize that there are people in the world who don't like a certain group of people because of the color of their skin and they raise their kids with the same ignorant mindset. With me I am Black and Yemeni and I have cousins who are Japanese and Yemeni mixed, Polish and Black mixed, Puerto-Rican and Black mixed and so on. it's really a beautiful thing to see to different cultures merge together and I really feel sad for people who don't see the beauty of diversity.
I am so proud of Adam saying that he does not judge people by the color of their skin..because in my family we have every nationality..I am Black,White, Filipino, Cherokee Indian, and Mexican.... My mom and dad do not see color they see people.....And that is what I see also
their confusing racism with prejudice. Also, I dont understand the purpose of saying non existent skin colors, this kumbaya stuff is cute but lets live in the real world.. no pun intended
You're right about prejudice but racism is a system based on advantage. If you dont benefit, you can't be racist. If everyone could be racist then there wouldn't be a system. Kind of like how the KKK is still a thing but the Black Panthers got dismantled by the FBI. If you dont agree, thats fine.
Also what you're entailing is that reverse racism is a thing which its not. Racism, just like race is a man made concept but it still defines our culture and society. Racism in America was made to benefit white people, it was not made to benefit all people. So it cant go in any other directions. I guess a way to think about it is would a slave be racist cause he hated all white people? vs. would a slave master be racist if he hated all black people? who systematically benefits from the hatred? Just my insight, Im interested in things like this so i do my research and create analogies.
If you see racism as a system based on advantage than no ethnic minorities on america cannot be racist towards whites. However if you see racism as prejudice then yes, ethnic minorities can be racist. Its honestly just about how you personally define racism
Honessstllyyyy.... Adam reminds me in this segment why I'm so hesitant to date white guys. Like, agism and racism are different. Not even comparable, homie. When was the last time someone was killed for being old? And when was the last time you saw a pink, blue, or purple person walking around? I get what he's trying to say, but he missed it.
+Abby E Wow same... I think he is adorable and means well but white people just tend to live in a bubble about this stuff. I couldn't personally do it but I guess Tamera kind of lived a sheltered life as well since she was in hollywood....
+Yasmine Xo Sheltered or not, you best believe she still experienced racism even in Hollywood. We didnt see her in any huge movie roles did we? yet some who cant even act get the opportunity because they are white.
I agree but seems she is oblivious to it.... I just meant that it is obviously not pushed in her face everyday like everyday folks who take the bus. Otherwise she could never support her husband being with fox news or tweeting #alllivesmatter
When Adam said "Aidan is a little bit lighter than Ariah, I'm just waiting for somebody to say something..." I have never been more scared in my entire life, That actually frightened me! 😯😮😮
Dawn Ins It was refreshing but terrifying because you know he meant business, (obviously because they're his children) and I just hope that anyone who felt that surge of terror that I felt, feels that when they're about talk 'ish' about his children😂😂
but what's wrong with saying something? am I to ignore that one child is lighter than the next? I mean my sister is lighter than I am and both of our parents are black. is it offensive to have to realize that one is lighter than the other?I'm not blind and it's not racists..but that's my opinion
Leia Richardson Huh??????? I was talking about (which was 31 weeks ago) Adam's righteousness and braveness. No where did I say it was offensive. I don't know how you managed to misinterpret that.
My parents never taught me this.They never taught me that people were gonna be racist , they never taught me that people were gonna put me down for other reasons.I had to learn it on my own.
I was waiting for this topic to come on The Real since season one, and thank God Adam was in this episode to have an open minded conversation from a different perspective.
I just want to say one thing, Adam just got more perfect. I love how he said "I'm waiting for the moment someone says something about how Aiden (idk how to spell his name) is lighter than Ariah (idk how to spell her name either) when I'm around" he's such a good dad.
@@chanelle9554 I also like the implication that anyone else at that table doesn't know people like that as well (of any race). But I imagine he's talking open racists. Of course, people usually censor themselves when not around people who agree with that nonsense.
You don’t realize if it’s never happen to someone your close too. I have white friends who leave in completely white neighborhoods. How would racism even come up
@@TonyellevilleTemple I mean... Yes and no. To be honest, I've found that people who are truly racist are open about it. As in, will actively use the n-word in coversation with other white people. I can't say I've met MANY of them, but that's a pretty good way to know if someone's a racist. I also think everyone has their biases and will tend to favor their own in-group, black or white, or whatever color they may be. I'd look more at actions rather than trying to be psychic and read people's minds..
I love that they spoke about this with Adam there today. Nice to get an opinion from one of the poster couples for blended families. On another note, is it just me shocked by Loni saying "Big ups" at the end? I thought that was only a Caribbean term lolol
I never saw my parents as two different races. It wasn't until I was in school, a predominately black private baptist school, my mom picked me up and everyone in my class kept asking me if that was my mom because she was white. I then realized the shock was. I love both my parents , and proud of that's where I come from.
Adrienne said something about social media and the idiots on there, she said they had a very "cowardly" platform. Which I think is very true, because 90% of the people who will diss u on social media won't say half of the bad stuff in your face.
+Getcho Life! I absolutely agree, that's why I mentioned the "coward" part of social media. Because these people are "closet" racists ... I am white myself, I'm pale as a bare of Dove soap. But I am from North Africa, so technically I'm Middle Eastern. But I never judge people based on skin color, and I wish people of skin color wouldn't judge me based on my whiteness. Because it's just the dumbest thing ever, it shouldn't even matter.
+Leia Richardson So keep bad comments to yourself, I'm not pointing the finger at you directly. But I don't understand why people have the need to be mean to each other or insult each other.
Cj Hamilton difference between unhealthy food and a channel which has racial and gender/sexual biases and distorts the truth through their media outlet
+Zoe Wright Michael brown was a thug who got what he deserved, he reached for the gun of the cop and punched his face. They have many female hosts and are not racist or sexist. However, I understand that people who have not gotten an education, such as yourself, have trouble comprehending what real racism or sexism is.
+Zoe Wright it's not a difference . The point is just because you work somewhere doesn't mean you share that's places beliefs, practices, or agree with what they do .
LOVE DOESN'T SEE COLOR!!! LOVE IS LOVE! I love Adam and Tamera and am outraged that there is still racism in 2015. No excuses for it. We all bleed red and should love each other no matter what color we are.
Ellie S I mean, let's call a Spade a Spade. He has a half-Black wife and is on a panel with a Black woman (Loni) preaching about the wrongs of racism, but he's disregarding the importance of Black people's lives by tweeting that all lives matter.
Natalie The whole rally and social media trend is to defend the lives of Black people who are victims of police brutality. Lemme know when White folks get beaten and baton'ed by police as much as Black people do. Plus, he's got a half-Black wife who supports "#BlackLivesMatter".
+Infinitty Arianna Fontressé True I get where you are coming from, I personally dont think he wants to get too involved with black issues, he works for fox so he is somewhere in the middle.
I wish they would've touch on Lonnie, Jeannie, and Adrienne experience as well cashes you would have had a mixed point of view,a black point of view, a Asian point of view ,and a lantina point of view
Basically "I don't see color." Kudos to Sandra Bullock for teaching her son how it is, not the colorblind pink, purple, or blue mess Tamera snd Adam have been smoking.
My children (living in the UK) experienced racism in nursery so we've been having those conversations since they were 4 years old 😪 That being said, my children (at the age of 6 and 8 year), are well-rounded individuals who are aware and proud of the colour of their skin and are able to love and respect other races 😍
Errrr no offense but Adam talks like your average white male who's never experienced any sort of discrimination and barely has an understanding of it. Using the classic line of "I don't care if you're white pink green blue" gave it away.
How did you want him to answer?? Go ahead and put your words in his mouth. If someone never experience something, then you cannot be mad at their answer. How would you feel if someone said the same thing to you??
I think what's also important is to teach people that racism comes in many forms. It doesn't have to be as explicit as someone being a KKK member or calling people the n word, racism is ingrained in our society, just look at how horribly misrepresented people of color are in the media and on television. We teach kids to stereotype and many people, whether they are aware they do it or not, have implicit biases towards minorities.
i usually agree with Tamera but on this i dont. im not going to wait til my son has an encounter to wait to educate him on who he is..especially in this day and age!
CORRECTION LONI, HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT RACISM IS AN AMER... ISSUE WHEN IT'S WORLD WIDE, THAT WOULD MAKE IT A WORLD WIDE ISSUE, BLACK PEOPLE ARE STILL GETTING BRUTALLY KILLED IN RUSSIA AND ISR. RACISM AGAINST BLACK PEOPLE IS TERRORISM NO DIFFERENT THAN THE MIDDLE EAST, 12 BLACK PEOPLE LYNCHED IN THE LAST 4 YEARS ALONE AND YOU SAY WHERE ALL THE SAME, TAKE A GOOD LOOK IN THE MIRROR YOUR A BLACK WOMAN, WHITE WOMEN CAN GLOBALLY TRAVEL WHERE EVER THEY WANT WITHOUT WONDERING ABOUT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN, THEY ALWAYS FELT FREE, THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE.
Being "colorblind" does nothing but helps white supremacy. This is why I don't get people like Adam and especially Tamera being a woc when they say "it doesn't matter what race you are" as if race doesn't affect poc every single day.

i have always been aware of the concept of race even as a child. I never treated anyone differently but i was aware of the fact the people are different
wow, I've always loved Adam and Tamera's relationship because they BOTH seem so wise to me. But, after seeing this segment I have SOOOO much more respect for Adam!! He always give such sound advice and I love it every time he co-hosts!
At first I didn't know what he meant, but I now believe he meant that he is married to someone who is herself the product of an interracial relationship. So her perspective will be quite helpful when the time comes.
I don't think Adam was talking about tamera and him I think he was talking about how the children will experience racism because one appears more white while the other appears more black so their racial experiences may be different as they grow up.
That's exactly how my husband and I are going to teach our kids. We are gonna tell them to love everyone, not based off their skin color, but because of their character. I adore Tamara and her husband. 😍
***** ma'am I'm Black just like you. I have no problem with you or your relationship. .....but, racism is about power, wealth, and control over the finite resources on planet earth and power, wealth, and control over other groups of people who compete for those finite resources. The creators of this racist system were not "ignorant" or "uneducated" they were quite aware of what they were creating. "Hatred" is a tool used by the racist but "hatred" and "ignorance" are not the basis of racism....power, wealth, and control are.
+MrZLeroy92 I honestly don't care. I'm just gonna stop replying to you because you obviously are trying to make something out of nothing. Have fun with your life.
I still remember two cases from my childhood concerning race. 1) I was 4, in 1995, and a mixed race couple moved into our neighborhood. Our right side neighbors stopped talking to us bc we befriended them, our left side neighbor (he was 50 and a war vet) happily befriended them. But, I remember the man (he was black, she was white) coming to our back door and hiding all the time. And I remember the fear when our front windows got smashed in once. I was 4, hiding my 2 yr old friend under my bed bc she existed. 2) When we moved up north to New England, I met two classmates (I was 7/8) that were dark skinned but not black. I spent two weeks trying to figure out what ethnicity they were before I very ashamedly asked my mom. I STILL to this day am so ashamed of this. Even though I know, from growing up in the mid-south that I couldn’t have known. Not back then. Nesha was Puerto Rican/Native American/Spanish and some brand of white (her mom has no clue what country that half is from) and George was Mexican American/Native American.
I was never taught by my parents about racism, but I know right from wrong. They just treated everyone the same, if they're we're nice my family was nice back, regardless of color.
I'm the most open minded person in the world lol. I teach my son that everyone is the same. He notices the difference in skin color. He told me one day, why is grandpa black? I'm like no baby he's brown I showed him the different shades of brown and told him we're all different shades of brown. And he's like I'm light brown your medium brown and uncle Mayk and grandpa Miguel are dark brown...im like yes. My husband and I do not ever let him say the words gay, fat, black or ugly when he's speaking about someone. We always tell him all girls are beautiful etc. Everyone is different that's why we're all beautiful.
I was born in the US, and my parents were born in el Salvador and I have Spanish in me. Let me tell you my brother and I look different. I am darker skinned and my brother is about two shades lighter. I have jet black hair and eyes, and my brother has hazel/brown eyes and light brown hair. My mom is lighter than both of us and my dad. We been asked if my mom is step mom, if I was adopted, we been bullied, and humiliated. To me each person is different and color or race shouldn't matter. It's a sad world that even in 2018 this hasn't changed
Hi Kathy, my parents also came from El Salvador. You need to search Candace Owens. We are being brainwashed to feel like victims for being minority, we have rights in this country and must move on from racial tensions to continue to evolve as humans. God Bless Cipota!
The thing about discussions on racism and hearing the perspective of a white (males especially) person on racism in America is that people will automatically look for them to be saying something ignorant and prejudice. Some POC don't even want to listen to someone like Adam speak on his experiences with racism or the repercussions of marrying a black woman and having brown children. They don't think he has any knowledge whatsoever. They don't think he's witnessed racism or has any understanding of how a black person (his wife) feels when being ostracized for her skin color. They don't think he contemplates the vile things his children very well may experience because of their mixed ethnicity. That right there is also racism at its finest. We don't know what this man deals with or what he has to watch his wife go through being in the media. Nothing he said in this video showed him being ignorant to the reality of racism in America and towards his family.
you know they racist when they gotta start naming crazy ass colors to describe somebody. i hate the "i dont care if youre this or that" argument because you should! you dont combat racism with ignorance of their race??? i feel that adam is uneducated on this topic to be talk about it like o
+Arina Kim I get what you're saying but you can genuinely tell that he isn't racist or that he didn't mean it in a bad way. He just said it as it's the only way he felt he could show everyone that skin colour doesn't matter. But I agree that "I don't see colour" phrase is bs
It was spot on you have to have a swift sharp mind to understand. What he is saying is you don't go around saying purple is better than orange. Why would you say black is better or white is better.
Travis Hardy unless it's your favorite color.. I say red and yellow are better than all colors. Maybe you like white people more than black people so you say white is better or vise verse..
When children change and suddenly don't like another child like Tamara said happened to Her, it's because the other child learned it from someone else. Children are not born racists. I took my kids to Eddy Murphy movies, I watched Sanford and Son, I treated black people the same way I treated everyone else. None of my children are racists, they have black friends. All I can say is, Thank you Dad You were a good Man.
This world would be so much better if we learn to love one another. Like Adam said it is what's on the inside that counts. & Loni had a point too. We can't just ignore racism bc that doesn't make it go away.
I agree with Loni if i was a celebrity and someone insulted me on social media and I saw it i would let them have it idc how famous or rich i am people think it's okay to just say stuff n hide behind the computer like Nope!
when my kids were little, little kids would ask why i was white and my son wasn't. that's fine, little kids are just curious. i would just tell them that their daddy was dark and i'm not, and they were fine. i've told off old people at the grocery store a time or two, for being nasty. you don't have to like me or approve of me, but you don't get to be rude. my husband and i just told our sons that some people are idiots, you just have to go about your business.
I wonder what Adam and Tamera's take is on gay people? I would hope they're supportive, just as people would support them with their interracial marriage.
so is also eating pork and shellfish, wearing two types of fabrics at the same time (ex. silk & cotton), cutting their hair, and tattoos. So that's a lot of sin!
An African American girl at my grade school we were best friends, I went to her house. The next day she told me she couldn't be my friend because her mom said I was white.
No lie when Adam said "I'm waiting for someone to say something while I'm around" my heart and soul left my body 😂😂😂😂 the passion was real
+G'elle V I loved that bit look at his face lol he ain't playing
Yep, he ready, been preparing.
Oh Adam done jump down on somebody about Tamera when she was pregnant with Aden!
Wait Tamera's Sister-in-law Is Fillpino??
+Carlos Santana Yes Adams brother is married to a phillipino
Disgusting thing is that tamera was called the N word by an 8 year old...
+Lara probably because that 8 year was taught by her parents to not like or talk to POC
+Lara It recently happened to me by a 3 year old.
+M. Williams :(
+Lara :(
+Lara when i was 12... first time i experienced racism..group of white kids chased me down in their car shouting out the n word
Tamera said that when the girl found out she was black she stopped being her friend. I wonder what color the little girl thought she was.
One key is that your taught racism your not born hating a person.
You're *
i agree 100%. watching babies has taught me that.
Racism is about power, wealth, and control... I'm so sick of people always talking about "ignorance" and "hatred"
The people that created the racist system were educated and intelligent. They created the racist system to use lesser whites to help oppress other races (namely Black people) for them.
Agreed
Maybe it was created by smart people....but today most racist people (who fall for it) are just stupid and uneducated...
Adrienne is a living, breathing example of how women change when they're single. Last season you were phenomenal and now it's just like x10 and you look BREATHTAKING EVERY SINGLE VIDEO!!!!!!!!!
+latina7292 GIRL PREACH!!!
Yassss she is not playing with them this season! Letting the whole world know she not hurting at all!
+ Latina 7292
Agreed!
(BTW, plz don't let the h8rs get to you. You have a right to give your opinion just as you did. IJS.)
+Robbie Davies LMFAO!!! 😂😂😂😂😂I'm actually the complete opposite of a feminist. I hope you have a better day. Don't let people upset you easily!😉
+Robbie Davies 😂😂😂😂😂
Am I the only one that got stuck on Adrienne's "Sandra Bull-Lock" 😂
No I was dying when I heard that
+annabelvb I bust out laughing.
Nope lol
Omggggggg Yasssss!! I was like WHOA😂😂😂🙈
She seems to misspronounce alot of words. lol
I hate when people are saying mean things to Tamera because she married a white man!!
Marie, just block Robbie.
+Kuhrizma Clemons I agree ppl like him want attention.
+Marie Claire Biron I hate it because it simply makes no sense. She's a woman who came from and was raised by a white man. It's what she knows! I think people are saying awful things to Tamera because they think she's the product of a black mom and black dad. Which proves their ignorance.
Marie Claire Biron Honestly, it's not even worth replying to them. Don't acknowledge ignorance.
Kuhrizma Clemons I know but I'm boring and I'm not sleepy.
That girl that called Tamera the "n" word sure did screw herself out of having an awesome and successful friend.
Facts
I absolutely love this comment!
That is a great point... No matter what how you conduct yourself towards others it will come full circle at some point in your life.
How do you NOT love Adam and Tamera's love? They seem so supportive and loving of each other. Adam and Tamera (to me) #relationshipgoals.
yes they are beautiful together! Great couple
+Shavanti dont judge a relationship by what u see on the outside
I said "seem"...but why not? Until something happens that changes my mind, their relationship seems great and I hope it stays that way.
Yes! I super love their relationship. They really love each other and I know for myself, I'm always smiling as they interact with one another. Genuine beautiful love!

I wish they would've talked about systemic racism and not just interpersonal prejudice. There's a huge difference between everyday people treating one differently because of your skin color and there being a system in place where one is at a disadvantage because of the color of ones skin.

+Isha King You are right
+Isha King well remember, they're still on the FOX network, so their convos about race are probably never going to be too deep.
+Isha King I agree. This segment was a bit disappointing but hopefully it's only the beginning and they'll have deeper and more expansive conversations about race in the future. Honestly, from the way Adam was talking and Tamera was agreeing with him, I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even believe in or acknowledge systemic racism...
+Dai Z Wow great point...got me thinking how will my husband be able to teach our sons as they grow about racism since he has never experience it himself. :(Got to look up on that ASAP.
Isha King, Good point and I like the way you think. But I highly doubt it they will go deeper. Many find it uncomfortable, so they just scratch the surface. These four women are good woman and also smart, but they are not the kind that will dig deep into issues whether it is Politics or Race. It takes a very special different kind of women. The kind of Women that lead the "Civil Right Movement" and the "Revolution", and "Challenged Slavery and fought to abolish it". They were soldiers of their time and we are now enjoying the Fruit of their labor. Few examples: Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks, Sojourner Truth, Ella Baker, Daisy Bates, Mary McLeod Bethune, and Maya Angelou, just to name a few:)!
When I was 7 I had this girl we were friends since nursery and once she said “I can’t play with you because you’re black” and I didn’t understand it till I told my mum and honestly I was crushed
Salvy Ngala that’s so sad
I can relate and understand what Tamera is talking about because I'm black and my parents talked to me about racism and they told me about certain issues that I will deal with on being black in America and the black experience such as driving while black, shopping while black, and I have to work really hard while black and my parents also taught me how to respond to the police when I'm confronted with one. I'm glad that the real is talking about real issues this season.
People who say that they don't see color don't necessarily say it with any racial bias undertones, but this is honestly a very problematic and unfortunately overused phrase. When people say things like this, and how we are all one human race, it takes away diversity. Race includes culture, language... basically all that is different about us. We SHOULD see color but not discriminate against it. Let people know that this isn't an OK thing to say, but do so gently as I'm sure when they say it, they mean no harm and only want to convey that they don't judge anyone because of their skin tone.
Right i like adam but i think its a cliche answer because he might not but other people do and will say something and the real is a couple people might say something to their daughter .I think even if they teach her things she will still get hurt by things said you cant protect her from that
+miss holiday season Adam didn't say he did not see color, he said he doesn't care about color, meaning it doesn't influence the way he treats someone. There's a distinctive difference.
Lakesha Davis that was my opinion but when people say that its cliche because everyone else in america does
You took the words right out of my mouth. Well said.
+Shaz123 I love your take on this. Your mind and spirit are elevated beyond the Earth's pettiness. Kudos and keep it flowing.
you could tell that Adam is sensitive but passionate to this & I love that he said his opinion. good job adam!
I agree wait until they experience it and see it
+GLAMCULTURE thats exactly how I was raised.
+GLAMCULTURE I dont agree...I believe in preparing them for it...
+Michie Oo well yes we should but kids don't understand things as much until they experience it or get called a name or looked at differently
GLAMCULTURE These generation of children know alot..since they know alot, why not educate them
+Michie Oo that could be a wrong step, putting unnecessary fear on a child. I think the act of preparing your children for racism, could be a racist thing itself.
Not that it's really relevant, but Loni's makeup is amazing in this clip :D
Isn't it though I was thinking the same thing
I do not promote racism of any race. I promote understanding, love, peace, joy, kindness, self-control, gentleness, faith, goodness and love.
"When she found out I was black" what kinda foolishness 😂😂😂😂 today's kids are something else
We are all the same. We all bleed the same. Stop the hate!
I get what you are trying to say and I am all for stopping the hate but we are far from the same and our differences should be recognized.
but that is not gonna stop the discrimination.
Not true I bleed red, you bleed green...what you been building for us...ha just playing...
If you wait to talk to your children about race (as a black person), that means you probably aren't teaching them their history and ancestors, which is very important. Don't let these public schools teach your child about being black before you get a chance to do it. Teach them from day one to be proud of who they are and how they look, and teach them to respect people's differences. There are different races and ethnicities and nationalities in this world, and there's nothing wrong with that. I don't believe that children should be blind to that until something bad happens, but hey, you raise your kids how you want to, but I will make sure that when my child runs into some racism, they won't have to ask me what happened, you'll already know how to react.
THAT part!!! Couldn't agree more.
Awesome point. I totally agree with you.
I agree that if you don't teach them, someone else will!
The Housley family is our families favorite TH-cam show! Love this family! My wife is Persian and kids 1/2 we been thru this for years! God Bless THEM!
i remeber being 7 years old and i went roller skating with my friend, who happened to be white. as a kid (military kid at that), color was not often a big deal. u really do only see people. but anways, another friend said, "i didn't know your mom was white". she wasn't of course it was my friends mom. but i remember thinking, "so what if she was?" mainly cuz "white" wasnt how i saw them at all. i just wonder why other kids get color stuck in their brain so young.
and also my baby cousin years ago said, "i hate white people". i firmly said ( and i was barely a tween. lol) "do not ever say that again. that is not nice &there is no reason to feel like that. " its so sad how adults make their kids minds toxic.
I love the way that Tam was raised 🙏🏾
Adam is really serious...I agree with him 💯
Such a fluff answer. I expected a bit more thought and not the regular "we don't see color" and "this generation is not like that" nonsense. They should address how they'll talk to their kids about violence and systematic issues, which are more relevant and problematic than some kid calling you the n word
+Fidelis Wambui that kind of deep discussion will probably never happen on this show...they're really shallow when it comes to topics of race.
1GoldRunner I appreciate color. Its beautiful and important, and I want people to recognize mine. My color represents a part of my culture and experiences, as I'm sure yours does. The problem arises when we subject people to systematic abuse, discrimination and all that due to color.... And as parents to a young boy who will most likely experience these issues, they should be more aware and more prepared.
And honestly, I'm quite confused with what your not seeing color has to do with my comment 1GoldRunner . Do you mind elaborating?
Me personally I don't think they should give a damn like I tell my child we are all mix in some ways.
1GoldRunner Aman best answer by far well comments. What I've been saying all along we spend to much time looking at a skin instead of a inner character. You could be black and have a white cousin but yet people are smart and don't know this.
I love Adam and Tamera but I don't agree with them at all.... When I have kids I want them to be prepared for the real world. I don't want them to walk in blind and then get their feelings hurt because they're different. I want my kids to be ready and speak up.
Racism has to do with power. As long as there is a world, there will be racism. Times have changed, but majority of ppl haven't.
+Myshere Taylor agreed. Look at social media the ultimate platform to spew hate and bullshit
+NEVER_AGAIN So, racism is normal? Structural inequality is normal? Your White Privilege can afford you to say that but there's nothing right about it.
+NEVER_AGAIN Jewish, but you still have white skin. Historically, my ppl have struggled and continue to face racism-daily. My ppl are being gunned down on a daily basis by racist White authority figures... Innocent Black children are being gunned down.
Don't tell me that I don't know what I'm talking about. You won't have to worry about your White kids being racially profiled. You clearly have demonstrated your ignorance because you can't articulate yourself without being disrespectful!
+Fanta Graham really now? Jews were part of slavery.
as long as that is not disputed I don't care about anything else
Why does Adam keep calling their relationship a "unique situation"? There's nothing weird or "unique" about it. You happen to be white and she happens to be black. That just rubbed me the wrong way.
That kinda pissed me off. I was like what unique situation? Interracial relationships are hella common. This segment made me look at him a little sideways....
EXACTLY! And wtf is a "situation" when does marriage or love become situation? It's un telling how his mind is really set up lmao.
+Nadi B You guys are reading waaaaaay to much into that...
+LottaKissu you're not reading at all lol.
+Nadi B They're in a unique situation because she's not completely black. And so their kid is not completely white or black.
This is why i loved Amanda on the show. I wish they talked about institutional racism rather than personal experiences. This is a watered down conversation.
Like Tamara said she has such a blended family from Filipino, Black, white etc. honestly I think when people come from backgrounds like that it's hard for them to be racist because they're interacting with people of different races and maybe even religions. For me I think I'm the same way, I was blessed to have a family from different religious and racial backgrounds its hard to realize that there are people in the world who don't like a certain group of people because of the color of their skin and they raise their kids with the same ignorant mindset. With me I am Black and Yemeni and I have cousins who are Japanese and Yemeni mixed, Polish and Black mixed, Puerto-Rican and Black mixed and so on. it's really a beautiful thing to see to different cultures merge together and I really feel sad for people who don't see the beauty of diversity.
I am so proud of Adam saying that he does not judge people by the color of their skin..because in my family we have every nationality..I am Black,White, Filipino, Cherokee Indian, and Mexican.... My mom and dad do not see color they see people.....And that is what I see also
Adam Had A Lot More To Say Then Tiny ... Wish She Said More
He is probably more comfortable with the group
Also, maybe Adam is just more articulate with his words; he is a news reporter after all.
+Dyvae Logan tamera not tiny.
+vavava wawawa What Do You Mean Tamera Not Tiny?
That's her name. Did you mean to say "Adam had a lot more to say then Tamera?
This is why I love this show! They discuss meaningful topics that affect everyone and get also entertain the audience. Love these ladies
their confusing racism with prejudice. Also, I dont understand the purpose of saying non existent skin colors, this kumbaya stuff is cute but lets live in the real world.. no pun intended
No, you clearly have not been taught correctly. Racism can be shown and acted upon by any race.
Prejudice is a mindset, and is not an action.
You're right about prejudice but racism is a system based on advantage. If you dont benefit, you can't be racist. If everyone could be racist then there wouldn't be a system. Kind of like how the KKK is still a thing but the Black Panthers got dismantled by the FBI. If you dont agree, thats fine.
Also what you're entailing is that reverse racism is a thing which its not. Racism, just like race is a man made concept but it still defines our culture and society. Racism in America was made to benefit white people, it was not made to benefit all people. So it cant go in any other directions. I guess a way to think about it is would a slave be racist cause he hated all white people? vs. would a slave master be racist if he hated all black people? who systematically benefits from the hatred? Just my insight, Im interested in things like this so i do my research and create analogies.
+purpletua So by your logic people of ethnic minorities can never be racist?
If you see racism as a system based on advantage than no ethnic minorities on america cannot be racist towards whites. However if you see racism as prejudice then yes, ethnic minorities can be racist. Its honestly just about how you personally define racism
Honessstllyyyy.... Adam reminds me in this segment why I'm so hesitant to date white guys. Like, agism and racism are different. Not even comparable, homie. When was the last time someone was killed for being old? And when was the last time you saw a pink, blue, or purple person walking around? I get what he's trying to say, but he missed it.
obviously he's a good person and him and Tam are so cute, but for me, we got to be on the same page about this stuff
I couldn't agree more
+Abby E Wow same... I think he is adorable and means well but white people just tend to live in a bubble about this stuff. I couldn't personally do it but I guess Tamera kind of lived a sheltered life as well since she was in hollywood....
+Yasmine Xo Sheltered or not, you best believe she still experienced racism even in Hollywood. We didnt see her in any huge movie roles did we? yet some who cant even act get the opportunity because they are white.
I agree but seems she is oblivious to it.... I just meant that it is obviously not pushed in her face everyday like everyday folks who take the bus. Otherwise she could never support her husband being with fox news or tweeting #alllivesmatter
When Adam said "Aidan is a little bit lighter than Ariah, I'm just waiting for somebody to say something..." I have never been more scared in my entire life, That actually frightened me! 😯😮😮
+Solomon Solomon Lol. you're kidding right? That came of as a joke to me. He is so not threatening.
+Dawn Ins No I know that, because he is a very good dad, but I've never seen Adam like that
Dawn Ins It was refreshing but terrifying because you know he meant business, (obviously because they're his children) and I just hope that anyone who felt that surge of terror that I felt, feels that when they're about talk 'ish' about his children😂😂
but what's wrong with saying something? am I to ignore that one child is lighter than the next? I mean my sister is lighter than I am and both of our parents are black. is it offensive to have to realize that one is lighter than the other?I'm not blind and it's not racists..but that's my opinion
Leia Richardson Huh??????? I was talking about (which was 31 weeks ago) Adam's righteousness and braveness. No where did I say it was offensive. I don't know how you managed to misinterpret that.
My parents never taught me this.They never taught me that people were gonna be racist , they never taught me that people were gonna put me down for other reasons.I had to learn it on my own.
I was waiting for this topic to come on The Real since season one, and thank God Adam was in this episode to have an open minded conversation from a different perspective.
I just want to say one thing, Adam just got more perfect. I love how he said "I'm waiting for the moment someone says something about how Aiden (idk how to spell his name) is lighter than Ariah (idk how to spell her name either) when I'm around" he's such a good dad.
When the white guy said he doesn't know anyone who is racist I found that very hard to believe lol
Rakhil T. why tf is that so hard to believe?!
@@chanelle9554 I also like the implication that anyone else at that table doesn't know people like that as well (of any race). But I imagine he's talking open racists. Of course, people usually censor themselves when not around people who agree with that nonsense.
You don’t realize if it’s never happen to someone your close too. I have white friends who leave in completely white neighborhoods. How would racism even come up
@@TonyellevilleTemple I mean... Yes and no. To be honest, I've found that people who are truly racist are open about it. As in, will actively use the n-word in coversation with other white people. I can't say I've met MANY of them, but that's a pretty good way to know if someone's a racist.
I also think everyone has their biases and will tend to favor their own in-group, black or white, or whatever color they may be. I'd look more at actions rather than trying to be psychic and read people's minds..
When you say stuff like that I stop Listening.
You can really tell Adam feels a way about people that would come for his children for being bi-racial. Kudos to you Adam.
I love that they spoke about this with Adam there today. Nice to get an opinion from one of the poster couples for blended families. On another note, is it just me shocked by Loni saying "Big ups" at the end? I thought that was only a Caribbean term lolol
i thought so too...im a jamaican and ive only ever heard other caribbean people say it
I'm from the VI and I've only heard Caribbean people say it....I guess it's spreading
I'm from the VI as well and I only hear Caribbean people say that also. A lot of Americans are saying Caribbean words and phrases nowadays.
MsBrooklyn11232 really? Which island?
madeyoulook St. Croix
I never saw my parents as two different races. It wasn't until I was in school, a predominately black private baptist school, my mom picked me up and everyone in my class kept asking me if that was my mom because she was white. I then realized the shock was. I love both my parents , and proud of that's where I come from.
Adrienne said something about social media and the idiots on there, she said they had a very "cowardly" platform. Which I think is very true, because 90% of the people who will diss u on social media won't say half of the bad stuff in your face.
Lol I say this all the time. Internet trollers on Facebook youtube and instagram will never tell you face to face.
+Travis Hardy Exactly
well maybe because I may never meet you in life so....
+Getcho Life! I absolutely agree, that's why I mentioned the "coward" part of social media. Because these people are "closet" racists ... I am white myself, I'm pale as a bare of Dove soap. But I am from North Africa, so technically I'm Middle Eastern. But I never judge people based on skin color, and I wish people of skin color wouldn't judge me based on my whiteness. Because it's just the dumbest thing ever, it shouldn't even matter.
+Leia Richardson So keep bad comments to yourself, I'm not pointing the finger at you directly. But I don't understand why people have the need to be mean to each other or insult each other.
I love how he trusts tamera. “She’s his mom she’ll know “
Omg adam works at fox news thoughh
People work at McDonald's and can't stand the food .
+Cj Hamilton say that!
Cj Hamilton difference between unhealthy food and a channel which has racial and gender/sexual biases and distorts the truth through their media outlet
+Zoe Wright Michael brown was a thug who got what he deserved, he reached for the gun of the cop and punched his face. They have many female hosts and are not racist or sexist. However, I understand that people who have not gotten an education, such as yourself, have trouble comprehending what real racism or sexism is.
+Zoe Wright it's not a difference . The point is just because you work somewhere doesn't mean you share that's places beliefs, practices, or agree with what they do .
LOVE DOESN'T SEE COLOR!!! LOVE IS LOVE! I love Adam and Tamera and am outraged that there is still racism in 2015. No excuses for it. We all bleed red and should love each other no matter what color we are.
Might be true but you forget blacks people are seen as less compared to others so it will always be an issue
I have no problems with Adam, but ain't he the same one who tweeted "#AllLivesMatter"? Like...
+Infinitty Arianna Fontressé lol excellent point haha! wow.
Ellie S I mean, let's call a Spade a Spade. He has a half-Black wife and is on a panel with a Black woman (Loni) preaching about the wrongs of racism, but he's disregarding the importance of Black people's lives by tweeting that all lives matter.
What's wrong with that ?? All life's do matter, black, white, yellow, brown.. I think he was good for saying that !!!
Natalie The whole rally and social media trend is to defend the lives of Black people who are victims of police brutality. Lemme know when White folks get beaten and baton'ed by police as much as Black people do. Plus, he's got a half-Black wife who supports "#BlackLivesMatter".
+Infinitty Arianna Fontressé True I get where you are coming from, I personally dont think he wants to get too involved with black issues, he works for fox so he is somewhere in the middle.
I wish they would've touch on Lonnie, Jeannie, and Adrienne experience as well cashes you would have had a mixed point of view,a black point of view, a Asian point of view ,and a lantina point of view
thank you for being so real with us ladies
Seeing people as colors = good
Seeing people as colors different from yours as bad = terrible
Basically "I don't see color." Kudos to Sandra Bullock for teaching her son how it is, not the colorblind pink, purple, or blue mess Tamera snd Adam have been smoking.
My children (living in the UK) experienced racism in nursery so we've been having those conversations since they were 4 years old 😪
That being said, my children (at the age of 6 and 8 year), are well-rounded individuals who are aware and proud of the colour of their skin and are able to love and respect other races 😍
Errrr no offense but Adam talks like your average white male who's never experienced any sort of discrimination and barely has an understanding of it. Using the classic line of "I don't care if you're white pink green blue" gave it away.
Naris Elkair shutup stop complaining 🙄
How did you want him to answer?? Go ahead and put your words in his mouth. If someone never experience something, then you cannot be mad at their answer. How would you feel if someone said the same thing to you??
Sound people have thick skin and don't memorize insults they received and frankly, that's what most examples of racism are, just few dumb insults.
I hope to find a man like Adam he is amazing and bright
Tamera and Adam are just 🙌🙌🙌🙌.. Love them!!!
I think what's also important is to teach people that racism comes in many forms. It doesn't have to be as explicit as someone being a KKK member or calling people the n word, racism is ingrained in our society, just look at how horribly misrepresented people of color are in the media and on television. We teach kids to stereotype and many people, whether they are aware they do it or not, have implicit biases towards minorities.
i usually agree with Tamera but on this i dont. im not going to wait til my son has an encounter to wait to educate him on who he is..especially in this day and age!
CORRECTION LONI, HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT RACISM IS AN AMER... ISSUE WHEN IT'S WORLD WIDE, THAT WOULD MAKE IT A WORLD WIDE ISSUE, BLACK PEOPLE ARE STILL GETTING BRUTALLY KILLED IN RUSSIA AND ISR. RACISM AGAINST BLACK PEOPLE IS TERRORISM NO DIFFERENT THAN THE MIDDLE EAST, 12 BLACK PEOPLE LYNCHED IN THE LAST 4 YEARS ALONE AND YOU SAY WHERE ALL THE SAME, TAKE A GOOD LOOK IN THE MIRROR YOUR A BLACK WOMAN, WHITE WOMEN CAN GLOBALLY TRAVEL WHERE EVER THEY WANT WITHOUT WONDERING ABOUT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN, THEY ALWAYS FELT FREE, THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE.
Ignoring the issue until it's brought up without yourself control is a state of ignorance.
"Every body has a story." - Jeannie
Being "colorblind" does nothing but helps white supremacy. This is why I don't get people like Adam and especially Tamera being a woc when they say "it doesn't matter what race you are" as if race doesn't affect poc every single day.
ADAM IF YOU AND TAMERA ARE THE SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE, WHY ARE YOU KEEP REFERRING TO YOUR MARRIAGE AS UNIQUE??? IM JUST CURIOUS TO KNOW!!! 😏🤔
Good point!
Unique as in blended family/ interracial marriage
Unique in the sense of what was traditional here in America.. “marrying your own kind”
@@ariecannon8553 blended/interracial families aren't unique anymore. it's not 1965.

i have always been aware of the concept of race even as a child. I never treated anyone differently but i was aware of the fact the people are different
doesn't adam work at fox news??? yikes :/
+Fay Yusuf guess who'll be unemployed after this
+JayJay Nicola B. check his twitter and you'll see he's just like them...
JayJay Nicola B. He may not say things that are flat-out racist but he's definitely ignorant
Amina U Just went on his twitter page and damn he's just as bad as the rest of them smh!! Even spewing that all lives matter bs..
Fay Yusuf Yes, exactly! It's terrible :/
Kids are not naturally racist, this behaviour is learned. Bless Tamera and Adam, they seems like such a great couple
wow, I've always loved Adam and Tamera's relationship because they BOTH seem so wise to me. But, after seeing this segment I have SOOOO much more respect for Adam!! He always give such sound advice and I love it every time he co-hosts!
Thankyou for talking about real issues in the world
I don't think Adam and Tamera situation is unique, it's becoming normal. Love is love
At first I didn't know what he meant, but I now believe he meant that he is married to someone who is herself the product of an interracial relationship. So her perspective will be quite helpful when the time comes.
+4daluvofnikki Exactly! I was thinking the situation isn't unique, it's common.
Yeah because black men have been starting families with white women for decades.
I don't think Adam was talking about tamera and him I think he was talking about how the children will experience racism because one appears more white while the other appears more black so their racial experiences may be different as they grow up.
rocknroll persona sweetie if you're going to insult someone you should at least know how to spell!
That's exactly how my husband and I are going to teach our kids. We are gonna tell them to love everyone, not based off their skin color, but because of their character. I adore Tamara and her husband. 😍
Racism is about power, wealth, and control ma'am.
+MrZLeroy92 Uhhh...I clearly was talking about what I was gonna teach my kids about racism. Gtfo with your nonsense.
***** ma'am I'm Black just like you. I have no problem with you or your relationship.
.....but, racism is about power, wealth, and control over the finite resources on planet earth and power, wealth, and control over other groups of people who compete for those finite resources.
The creators of this racist system were not "ignorant" or "uneducated" they were quite aware of what they were creating. "Hatred" is a tool used by the racist but "hatred" and "ignorance" are not the basis of racism....power, wealth, and control are.
+MrZLeroy92 I honestly don't care. I'm just gonna stop replying to you because you obviously are trying to make something out of nothing. Have fun with your life.
***** I apologize for the inconvenience.
love adam and tamera great team x
I still remember two cases from my childhood concerning race. 1) I was 4, in 1995, and a mixed race couple moved into our neighborhood. Our right side neighbors stopped talking to us bc we befriended them, our left side neighbor (he was 50 and a war vet) happily befriended them. But, I remember the man (he was black, she was white) coming to our back door and hiding all the time. And I remember the fear when our front windows got smashed in once. I was 4, hiding my 2 yr old friend under my bed bc she existed. 2) When we moved up north to New England, I met two classmates (I was 7/8) that were dark skinned but not black. I spent two weeks trying to figure out what ethnicity they were before I very ashamedly asked my mom. I STILL to this day am so ashamed of this. Even though I know, from growing up in the mid-south that I couldn’t have known. Not back then. Nesha was Puerto Rican/Native American/Spanish and some brand of white (her mom has no clue what country that half is from) and George was Mexican American/Native American.
Adam is right!
I could care less about someone's skin colour, I see you as another person. Love these two and I agree with what they said
She says ABSOLUTELY, but then looks at her husband, as if to ask " absolutely. ...right??". Lol.
I was never taught by my parents about racism, but I know right from wrong. They just treated everyone the same, if they're we're nice my family was nice back, regardless of color.
Where are the Pink, Green, Blue and Orange people, Adam?
Loni girl your hair and makeup is on POINT! I know you're wearing it long these days but this hair and color is so NICE!
I'm the most open minded person in the world lol.
I teach my son that everyone is the same. He notices the difference in skin color. He told me one day, why is grandpa black? I'm like no baby he's brown I showed him the different shades of brown and told him we're all different shades of brown. And he's like I'm light brown your medium brown and uncle Mayk and grandpa Miguel are dark brown...im like yes.
My husband and I do not ever let him say the words gay, fat, black or ugly when he's speaking about someone. We always tell him all girls are beautiful etc. Everyone is different that's why we're all beautiful.
He thinks all those words are bad words. He tells his friends you can't say (any of the words I listed above) because it's a bad word and not nice...
I was born in the US, and my parents were born in el Salvador and I have Spanish in me. Let me tell you my brother and I look different. I am darker skinned and my brother is about two shades lighter. I have jet black hair and eyes, and my brother has hazel/brown eyes and light brown hair. My mom is lighter than both of us and my dad. We been asked if my mom is step mom, if I was adopted, we been bullied, and humiliated.
To me each person is different and color or race shouldn't matter. It's a sad world that even in 2018 this hasn't changed
Hi Kathy, my parents also came from El Salvador. You need to search Candace Owens. We are being brainwashed to feel like victims for being minority, we have rights in this country and must move on from racial tensions to continue to evolve as humans. God Bless Cipota!
The thing about discussions on racism and hearing the perspective of a white (males especially) person on racism in America is that people will automatically look for them to be saying something ignorant and prejudice. Some POC don't even want to listen to someone like Adam speak on his experiences with racism or the repercussions of marrying a black woman and having brown children. They don't think he has any knowledge whatsoever. They don't think he's witnessed racism or has any understanding of how a black person (his wife) feels when being ostracized for her skin color. They don't think he contemplates the vile things his children very well may experience because of their mixed ethnicity. That right there is also racism at its finest. We don't know what this man deals with or what he has to watch his wife go through being in the media. Nothing he said in this video showed him being ignorant to the reality of racism in America and towards his family.
+Tamara Young His wife is white as well
+Obi Uzoma his wife is half white firstly and secondly she appears black so people will treat her as such
Breetheone I know that but would that still be considered interracial marriage
yes because society views her as black and she is half black. I am also mixed and my boyfriend is white we are interracial
Breetheone ok I see what you mean based on what society says
So real I love this conversation because I have went through racism.
LOL...Pops says he waiting on someone to say something. I love that!! #DontDoIt
These 5 are some of the prettiest people I have ever seen
I love how Jean jeannie didn't cover up her tattoos on her shoulder today
I will never ignore it! I was always thought that your silence means you agree.
you know they racist when they gotta start naming crazy ass colors to describe somebody.
i hate the "i dont care if youre this or that" argument because you should! you dont combat racism with ignorance of their race??? i feel that adam is uneducated on this topic to be talk about it like o
+Arina Kim "i don't care if you're blue,pink,lime green,polka dots with zerba print"
+Arina Kim I get what you're saying but you can genuinely tell that he isn't racist or that he didn't mean it in a bad way. He just said it as it's the only way he felt he could show everyone that skin colour doesn't matter. But I agree that "I don't see colour" phrase is bs
+Ricko Sibora duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
It was spot on you have to have a swift sharp mind to understand. What he is saying is you don't go around saying purple is better than orange. Why would you say black is better or white is better.
Travis Hardy unless it's your favorite color.. I say red and yellow are better than all colors. Maybe you like white people more than black people so you say white is better or vise verse..
Tamera looks so beautiful and always has so much class. I think all of these ladies are beautiful in different ways!! ❤️
Why does he keep saying unique situation... It's not unique... Calm tf down.
it botherd me
When children change and suddenly don't like another child like Tamara said happened to Her, it's because the other child learned it from someone else. Children are not born racists. I took my kids to Eddy Murphy movies, I watched Sanford and Son, I treated black people the same way I treated everyone else. None of my children are racists, they have black friends. All I can say is, Thank you Dad You were a good Man.
I cosign everything Adam said!
This world would be so much better if we learn to love one another. Like Adam said it is what's on the inside that counts. & Loni had a point too. We can't just ignore racism bc that doesn't make it go away.
I agree with Loni if i was a celebrity and someone insulted me on social media and I saw it i would let them have it idc how famous or rich i am people think it's okay to just say stuff n hide behind the computer like Nope!
No matter her skin tone Ariah is the most gorgeous little thing I've ever seen 😍
when my kids were little, little kids would ask why i was white and my son wasn't. that's fine, little kids are just curious. i would just tell them that their daddy was dark and i'm not, and they were fine. i've told off old people at the grocery store a time or two, for being nasty. you don't have to like me or approve of me, but you don't get to be rude. my husband and i just told our sons that some people are idiots, you just have to go about your business.
The way Tamera looks at her husband 😭😍♥️
I wonder what Adam and Tamera's take is on gay people? I would hope they're supportive, just as people would support them with their interracial marriage.
Same, I hope they are supportive.
so is also eating pork and shellfish, wearing two types of fabrics at the same time (ex. silk & cotton), cutting their hair, and tattoos. So that's a lot of sin!
Love love loveeeeeeee Adammmmm and Tameraaaa they are the perfect examples of interracial marriage and how love sees no color!
We love you Adrienne, but who is Sandra BullARK?
Anyone watching in 2020? I can’t believe we are still talking about this 4 years later!!!!
how is a conversation about race drowned out by the only white and male person on the panel smdh
An African American girl at my grade school we were best friends, I went to her house. The next day she told me she couldn't be my friend because her mom said I was white.
