Oh my goodness. Will there be an update or brief touch base with these couples in the future? It would be so cool to see & hear their perspective or where they are today now
"We share the same cultural history. I dont have to translate my blackness to her." Ooh! Come through. And this is why I want a black man. I need to get out of Seattle.
Divine Timing. When my day comes for love, i will be ready
Hands up if you need an update 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 This is beautiful 💗 BLACK LOVE IS BEAUTIFUL 💗
I notice that when black women are saying that we want pure black love that we are being called racist and it's nothing to do with racism it's just that it's a preference to be able to share that love with someone like yourself someone who understands your background someone who understands your struggles there is nothing wrong with wanting to have black love black children and a strong black family and it's so sad that we have to accept something that we don't want to expect when you see the title black love that's what we're expecting to see black love
There’s just something SOOO Homeliness to being with a Black man either as a friend, lover, father or husband.
The couples look very wonderful.
You can tell the ones that are super in love based on the body language
There is a special anointing that a married couple has. May God continue to bless your vision as you share with the world. Marriage is intentional work and with God you can make it. God bless you all.
Black love stories.... keeping it real and the transparencies... BEAUTIFUL 💙🥀💙🌹💙🥀💙
I would personally like to see just black couples. black marriage is very important
Felisha Bennett me too.
Felisha Bennett I agree 💯💯💯
I would too. There are so many couples out there.
Racist.
I agree
I loved this!!! Beautiful Black couples.....how refreshing!!!!!
This is beautiful black love!!!God's timing is everything...thanks for the post❤❤
Honestly, this is what we need more of. So Therapeutic.
This is an awesome show, and we need more of it, and like it.
I just LOVE BLACK LOVE!!😍❤️🙌🏾

Absolutely love this!!! Sooo proud of you bestie!!
Black love is black love whether interracial or not. We as blacks complain about prejudice often but we don't see when we do it. The lesson in this is to see what we can learn from each couple's experience to improve upon our marriage whether now or when you marry later. People sometimes think it's going to be better if we marry the same culture, race, creed. No. Each person comes from a different household with different thought processes. When you come together as a married couple it can be very challenging. I know from experience. My husband and I may share the same skin color and religion but we don't share the same culture. I'm pretty laid back until you push me. I'm flexible and open for the most part but I have my own mind...not a follower. However my husband tried to push his culture instead of just letting our marriage be about the both of us. Just let it flow and build our own family. After some verbal exchanges over the 4 yrs, he's learning. Better than it used to be.
I love seeing this video. This was so classy and not trashy. It shows the world a different perspective on black couples!!
It would have been nice to have a platform of only BLACKLOVE not mixed. Everywhere else we are pushed to see mixed mixed mixed it would have been nice to have a place to come to of our own to see BLACKLOVE. However for the other couples it's lovely to see
I love this! I love that you incorporated different couples!
Truly beautiful in every way imaginable and truly a fairy tale.... Some black women are not that fortunate just like what we've been through but we deserve our love and we deserve you a true King the BLACK MAN!
Yes Messiah King of Kings what a beautiful day to be worshipped 👐👐👐👐
Amazing story of love period .
Awww! What a wonderful video! The world needs more love! ❤❤❤
To each his own, but it’s weird to me that the guy thought it was necessary and funny to make his wife feel forgotten and under appreciated on Valentine’s Day because he was proposing the next day...it was cruel for no reason.
I'm glad I stumbled upon this. ♥
I loved all of the couples. Even the interracial one. But especially Roxie and Armand & Tanya and Amel. They are such goals!!! ♣♥
techwi3 We’re glad you found it too!
Aww this gives me hope
This is BEAUTIFUL!!
Divalive82 Thanks so much! It gets better and better. See you next week!
“You’re black but you can always do what you want to do.”-Love that
Helps to not feed into the prescripted narrative or expectations from any side.
Love who you love. But don't add interracial couples into the topic of Black Love.
Your first sentence didn't make your second sentence less racist.
Reggie Phillips ✊✊✊
exactly
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you! Do a separate segment for those couples!
Thank you for this episode
Only a black woman understands me and my struggles.
Gabriel Prosser 😉
Armand and his wife! I Love how He explained it!
GOD speed.... This is beautiful one day...one day...
Your love is right around the corner!
Amen!!! AMEN!!!!! Very soon!!!!
Black love only 👌🏽✊🏽❤
I love this 😍😍😍😍I love love.
THIS IS SOOOO DOPE AND YESSS #DMV LOVE
Luv all the couples..
This is good. I skipped over the interracial couple though. I dont want to see that ish here. Im pretty sure there are plenty of platforms for mixed couples where black couples arent included.
Sorry, but why is there an interational couple. WHY!!!!
I want to see Black Love. Not prejudice but it is soo refreshing to see beautiful Black Kings and Queens, just saying!
Still praying for my chocolate 🍫 queen 👑 God
BLACK LOVE .... YES! ✊🏾❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love it!
What's up with the mammy.I was enjoying up until that point.....BLACK LOVE !!!!!For heavens sake!😡
I just love this
21:20... thank you King!🌹💯❤️
Right On!!!!
Love is beautiful when its genuine
" Are my eyebrows ok?" Lol omg that's so me lol
If this is black love. the white man and black woman should not be here👎thats for another channel called mixed love. but its great to see the BLACK LOVE COUPLES😉
Exactly!!!
Lovelm Purple Correct ✊

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh yes god. Black love matter.
Thank you
Wonderful.
5:05 what a shame when everything in your home was black orientated in terms of food, t.v and music why was it that there wasn't a foundation of history teaching. What an advantage to go to school and teach them a thing or two, with so much inaccuracies, lies and misrepresentation how wonderful it would have been to turn to them and put them straight on many aspects instead of looking at them wide eyed.
I'm British I really enjoy watching however, I'm bemused why there's a white man depicted in black love🤔. Love is love but this is black love.
I'm not against Nathan & Shanada Love it's beautiful what they have.
However the title is clear "Black Love" Nathan & Shanada has love but certainly not black love.
Haha, you got sucked in because racists enjoy the title, then it wasn't up to your racist standards.
Liz abella you're right it isn't black love which doesn't fit the title of the video
How can this be black love with an interracial couple? #ThatsMixedLove #NotBlackLove
Nathan and Shanda, I didn’t mind you being mixed race. I just didn’t understand the narrative.
What were you here to teach us about love? More specifically black love?
Also, this is beautiful (the video touched my heart)
Love_ Notee Check out Episode 7 to hear more from Nathan & Shanada and tell us what you think: th-cam.com/video/OCyMJDoL-xE/w-d-xo.html
Seems like what she was saying in this episode is that she felt a responsibility to teach him about her/our culture. Although he will never know what it's like to be African American, their relationship is an example of how others specifically a spouse can learn about the culture
I thought it seemed PC to include them on a show promoting "Black Love" like ok let's not appear to be biased
Hey, Vince! Nah, it's not that. We're a private entity and didn't have to be politically correct for anyone. Our own dollars and resources made this project possible, giving us full control of who we cast and the stories we incorporated into the series. We had Nathan & Shanada on the show because we appreciated their narrative: particularly Shanada's perspective that her white husband is her ally. As content creators, we respect the art of story telling, value the lived experiences of our cast and also acknowledge varying perspectives. Thanks for participating in the conversation!
The Larker Collective Ok, I was just a little confused because I thought that by definition "Black Love" was specific to two black people. I mean love who you love no doubt, but in this forum it seems out of place to me
I love dude said im unapologetically black
Interracial couple love isn't black love. Can we get a all black show. Can we get a show with a black family. Black man and woman black kids.
They always have to push that agenda, because most black folks believe that liberation of any kind, is always associated with whiteness.
Most Black folks believe what about white folks and our freedom? Where do you live that you believe that fake news?
focus on the point which is a strong family/household/foundation for the community and younger generation. As long as there is one black person involved it automatically should qualify as 'black love'. Don't make it about what it's not people. stay focused
@@chisommeceber7600 That doesn't make any sense. You can't have one person being black and another person from a different race and then say, this is black love. Are you dense?? This now becomes interracial love. You need!!!!!!( TWO blacks) for it to be black love. Nd it has nothing to do about being negative or focusing" on love. It clearly states #ThisisblackloveFilm. So in other words, this video is misleading. I clicked just to watch about black love. I was excited until I seen the interracial couple. Not that I'm against it. But It's not black love. These people straight up lied, nd your confused.
Please
Although I loved this a while back I just don’t understand this interracial agenda being pushed on a supposedly black love documentary tf is this lol
Was enjoying it until I got to the "interracial" couple....lost me after that!!
Beautiful
This is not Oprah this show is made for TH-cam check the description
Funny how when the men r talking in everything that I watch with husbands & wives, how the wife always turns her head directly toward her husband & I mean in everything that I see with a husband & a wife. 😊
Am I the only one asking GOD, where is my mate I'm ready for my ebony queen etc, etc, etc
Wisemen Wisemen not alone God knows
she's out there looking for you. so dont give up. I feel the same way. I'm looking for my ebony king
Your not the only one
No, not alone
😎🎁✊🏾👑💯
I hope I can find this type of love
I heard that HU! You know!!! Come on Bison!!!
Chris and tori..🤣🤣🤣 that man looked like he smoked 5 joints before they started filming.. he nervous as hell...
Please tell me how i find that. Sending up lots of prayer!
zehsmom ray We're praying and believing that God is preparing a special made love story for you!
zehsmom ray I'm prying for that love as well
An interracial couple is not black love. I was digging the documentary, but got turned off with the interracial couple. Won't continue to watch.
I thought this was BLACK love??? In touch with your "Blackness," huh? mhmm...sure. Oh, of course...this is Oprah's network. Figures. Salute to all of the brothaz and sistaz keepin love alive through all of the obstacles we face!
Shanada rocks up at an interview with her hair busted like that? Haven't heard a word she said coz I'm so distracted.Did she seriously not give a damn? Heaven, give me strength...lol
Changu Selemi ikr lol guurrrll!!
Unfortunately, and I don't want to seem judgmental and knock down another black woman, but I was thinking the same. :/ I only say this because I think representation is everything ... She and her husband could have been a little more presentable. However I am interested in hearing their narrative.
No offense, neither of them are lookers, they don't seem like the types to really care about appearances.
Changu Selemi oh...seriously..you took the words right out of my mouth..hilarious🤣🤣🤣
Wow, this is your first thought?
You know, you know, you know
BLACK LOVE THEN COMES THEM BEAUTIFUL BLACK LOVELIES
This shit makes my heart melllllllt omg husband me already so cute!!!
Nathan and Shanda= Black Love???
gayle2020 Is Shanada's experience with love valid? She has married a white man, but she's a black women... does she matter?
The Larker Collective she absolutely matters, but the show is Black Love , not Love. What they have done to our women throughout history should ban them from EVER taking dominion over a black queen.
gayle2020 Yes.
Hi Harold, we understand your perspective. As creators, we get to decide what our platform for Black Love means..we chose to be inclusive when it came to black people who married outside of the black race. It's less about Nathan and more about Shanada. Our stance is: Shanada's love for her husband is valid- whether or not we like or agree with the color of her husband's skin. Your response continues the conversation we intended to start. Thanks for chiming in!
The Larker Collective Objectively, I get it. But as I've gotten older I've had the clarity of history to show me, and this is my opinion, that our inclusive nature has set us back. I do feel some type of way to see a white man and black woman together but I am willing to listen to anyone's filter of perception. The way I pose it to people is this: If you had the chance to hold power of God, would you? If you could take dominion over her, would you? It just seems like a power complex and I don't see how their intentions can be organically pure and good.
I want to be on with my husband of 4 years we are young. We got married at 25 and it’s definitely no guide to married like Married For Dummies. I want to share our experience being young black, developing and married in this “insta” generation
I came from javlogs
yes LAWD #DMV Chesapeake Bay ..... Maryland ..... #MSU #AKA #PinkyOut!
❤️💖❤️💖❤️
In my opinion Interracial love isn't black love, and from the historical record of slavery history, most of our people practice Willie Lynch syndrome and white Supremacy, which causes our people to suffered from plantation Psychosis. This is why we are having this conversation about black love. There's a lot of damage that's been done to the black family and a lot of government interference called southern strategy. If you listen to interracial couples, they don't have a clue , naive, or don't care everyday struggles of the black experience. There are black people who want to distance themselves from the everyday black experience, and there action drives the interracial relationships.
Did any of them have to go through cheating scandals :/ ? Just asking...how they dealt with it and went through it....
Yes several have. Watch more videos
Dude looks like Marvin Sapp. When y'all gon' bring more stories? Is this channel still good?
We're cooking some new content up. Thanks for staying with us!
WHEN YOU FIND SOMEONE WHO LOVES YOU SUPERFICIAL FOOLISHNESS DOES NOT MATTER!. YOU HEAR THAT PLENTY

Gia Miss White Not true sistah.Our tribe has a brutha and sistah for everyone.
Black love, but you got a white man and black woman. Blasphemy.
I am starting a new show called, "WHITE LOVE"
Perfect!
@@TheLarkerCollective ...really?
I know that Larker didn't make the previous comment, but do you think it's going to include any black People?
Yall need to stop hating on that caucasian man. He is living his best non-melaninated life with his wife.
Why can't "Black Love" include those who aren't black that loves a black person and a black person loving one who isn't black? As long as one of the participants in the relationship is black, I think it's black love. Just my thoughts.
that is interracial love.
I was scrolling waiting on this comment. It’s showing the black persons experience dating outside of their race
Okay, No, Black love is Black love and I am not prejudiced. That is a mixed race couple and not a Black couple!
