I have a very melanated nephew married to a yt woman. Their only child looks and associates as white. The few times she had attended our family gatherings she looks totally uncomfortable. As I say, just because you sleep black doesn’t mean you like black
My husband have many Black male friends in same situation. The White/Asian/Hispanic women do not associate with their spouses families or Black women. They like Black men but vast majority of their friends are in IR marriages/relationships. My husband is the exception.

Explain the Moors, Hebrews, Sovereign citizens and now Pretendians like Dane Calloway. All the evidence says the opposite, black people don't want to be Black. They'll be the original Chinese or Japanese first 😂 and you damn well know it. Stop faking the funk, we all have eyes.
This is true. No group can claim to have given the world so many advancements in all fields of human endeavor while silumtaneously suffering under 500 years of unrelenting aggression, oppression, and negative propaganda. We built the most powerful, influential culture in history. The world is jealous. Jealously breeds envy. Envy brings hate, fear, and violence. Black family, it's just us for us. We must all get on code and take our power.
You can lose me with having children with a woman whose family hates me. Life is too short for that crap and children should be loved by both sets of grand parents.
Thing is the overwhelming number of biracial children end up either marrying or "getting with" non-Blk ppl. This is the largest indicator of how they ultimately see themselves when it comes to identity.
They always have been Black. The term biracial wasn't a thing until the 1990s. One drop of Black blood, b4 the 1990s. You were considered Black , period.
AS FOR ME AS A WEST AFRICAN I CAME TO THE USA BECAUSE OF BLACK AMERICANS I HAD A CHOICE TO GO TO FRANCE BUT I CHOSE THE USA JUST BECAUSE I KNEW BLACK AMERICANS WOULD WELCOMED ME AND HAVE MY BACK SORRY FOR OUR OFF CODE BOOTH LICKS
@@victorvalandybernard7944 . Why thank you and I will just do that. We all can't be saint's my friend. Being a Black American is hard enough . We are good on our end
Have seen these other countries the music they want and copy is old school and on commercials and internet black old school is the most seeked before you speak watched tv and internet videos and that music is everywhere especially old school research before you comment.
I’m technically biracial but happily and rightfully claim my blackness. No one gets to me what I am and what I’m not. Those children reserve the same right.
As you get older uncomfortable truths reveal themselves. And here's yet another one - There is a difference between culture and pop culture. Afro American pop culture is influential and adopted. But the culture is not respected and looked down on. Many other cultures and peoples would never want their children to marry an Afro American. Even a lot of Africans feel this way. In us, they see a culture of crime, broken families, single mothers, and a majority of children born out of wedlock. They don't see us men as husbands, fathers, and builders. I realize it's far more comfortable to claim we're the greatest and most admired people in the world. But it simply isn't true.
You could not have said this better, thank you. They love the mainstream, socially popular aspects of black pop culture, but often have no interest in inspecting the black story, struggles, and socioeconomic disparities. In fact, the most active supporters of black pop culture, middle class caucasian youngsters, are probably the most racially hostile to blacks, and perpetuate their legacy of racism actively on them, while desiring their bodies, sports and musical talents. It's all so bizarre.
PART‼️ of what you advised is true. Even Black immigrants see us as this or that BUT then it goes back to the question: IF WE ARE SO BAD WHY ADOPT WHAT YOU SAY IS OUR "POP" CUKTURE? It goes deeper than money. You can make money yes but why continue to emmulate? Makes 0 sense. Im not impressed by aby immigrant culture so i do not eat their food, model their looks, listen to their music, etc. 0 interest

Exactly no other race of people except biracial children as their race, they consider them mixed or biracial. Black people are the only group of people that will call these biracial children blk and let them erase our blk image as black people, it’s crazy
They use to call it “color struck” it’s still a thing unfortunately. They want it because we got it,and in their hearts and minds they believe we don’t deserve it. It’s all so silly. I won’t be around to see any of this work itself out. I believe in the positive change that has occurred,and that which will occur. Keep giving it to them Lady
It’s also why in movies and TV shows, Black men are often portrayed as the “Black Sage” or “Magical Knee-gro.” Sort of an inconsequential person with folky wisdom to mystical abilities, who helps the predominately White lead overcome a hurdle towards prosperity. The Green Mile, Rocky IV, Bruce Almighty, Legend of Bagger Vance, The Matrix, Not another Teen movie, The LEGO movie, Unbreakable, MCU & Nick Fury, etc. But in the end, the “Black Sage” doesn’t get the credit, it’s the hero of the story that does. He’s meant to be a sort of sacrifice for the betterment of society, and to his own detriment.
@@ian_ford I saw a white woman on tiktok say something to this affect. Shew was in nursing school and she said she expected the black women to help her. She realized that all of her life she thought black people were around to make her life better

Great video coverage Queen the most recognized copy and duplicated. These other groups want to have what we have, do what we do , and be who we are. We're the standard. Black community take your hat off in salute yourself
Please stop that. That is not true. African Americans and Blacks of the disapora have always helped each other. Some of the best ones have been a product of....shall we say a "cross cultural collaboration." Let us not allow negative people on both sides to foment discord and disunity.
I am certainly Proud of being Black. God made us and we are a Blessed People. I am so Proud of Our Black Ancestors for all of their ACCOMPLISHMENTS and starting with and in humble beginnings( essentially many starting with nothing). But God brought us through so many obstacles! Thank you Lord!!! You have us here!!!
Not black only. But we had a TH-camr who went out of her way to adopt an Asian child with autism. She said she wanted to adopt someone who she can help… in Asia it’s hard to adopt their children outside the country or even race… you know what she did… when it got hard… she sent him back and blamed him! Saying the boy tried to hurt her biological daughter 😂
Those children are NOT BLACK those are mixed children. That has nothing to do with black people. Those kids are born outside of our community not in it.
Exactly. Most of them are raised within the white community, but the white community does not except them as white, and more than likely most of those biracial children will marry white and create even whiter looking children and completely erase that black man’s image, his grandchildren will be white and he’s proud of that as a black man, these men really hate themselves, smh
@@Claribelle401 we have the right to see and all them as they truly are and u don’t get to tell us how to perceive our likeness! They are not blk. They are biracial.
Well, we wear their straight hairstyles, they might as well Afros and braids. I’ve been natural for a long time and cry a little when I see sisters with straight hair. My cousin brought her kids up in cornrows and braids. Her oldest just turned 18 and relaxed her hair. I’m so sad but it’s her hair.
Don't cry for me. I know who I am and who I belong to. That's just another part of our uniqueness. No culture can do what we do with black 🖤 hair. Like burger King, we wear it our way. Straight nappy, kinky , I'm Black 🖤 and Proud. Happy Black 🖤 history, yesterday, today and to our blessed tomorrow's. 🙏 ❤ It's very important Lady Boule to point this out, with your commentary. Enjoy your weekend, be blessed 🙏
@@denisehenry3427Exactly. I couldn't see myself being so concerned about how another grown Black woman wears her hair anyway. How BW wear their hair has been legislated and policed. Other races of women's hair has not.
@quix66hiya22 So you're gonna act like when Black women wear their hair in natural styles at work or at school they don't get told it's unprofessional, and distracting? You're gonna completely remove that context. And ignore the fact that despite how natural hair is negatively viewed inside and outside the Black community, millions of Black women are wearing their natural hair. There's been a natural hair movement going on so long it's been co-opted by mixed and white women. So the idea that no Black women are wearing their hair natural is false. Maybe you should get you some business of your own to tend to, then you wouldn't have to worry about other Black women's hair.
@@mellod5615agree with your point but why do we keep waiting to get permission from other people to live. I have had my hair 10 years and got a job all the way from Africa to the west on my hair. Let me tell you, we can put our hair up in a bun and gel it, we can corn row, braid it. There are other styles that doesn’t include us wearing straight hair and living under other peoples wigs 247 . So yes those thing happened and do happen and it’s sad but you cannot sit around and waiting for everyone to accept you because even with wigs you are still rejected. You have to accept yourself or be the best at what you do that they do not have a choice .
Interracial Marriage Trends: Since the landmark Loving v. Virginia case in 1967, which legalized marriage across racial lines, intermarriage has steadily increased in the United States. In 2015, one-in-six U.S. newlyweds (17%) were married to a person of a different race or ethnicity, marking a significant rise from the 3% in 1967. Among all married people (not just newlyweds), 10% are now intermarried, totaling 11 million individuals1. Asian and Hispanic Newlyweds: Asian and Hispanic newlyweds are the most likely to be intermarried: Nearly three-in-ten Asian newlyweds (29%) were married to someone of a different race or ethnicity in 2015. 27% of Hispanic newlyweds also had intermarriages. These rates were especially prevalent among U.S.-born Hispanics (39%) and U.S.-born Asian newlyweds (46%)1. Black and White Newlyweds: The intermarriage rate among Black newlyweds has significantly increased: In 1980, only 5% of Black newlyweds were intermarried. By 2015, this rate had risen to 18%. Among white newlyweds, the intermarriage rate also increased: In 1980, it was 4%. By 2015, it reached 11%1. Common Pairings: The most common racial or ethnic pairings among newlywed intermarried couples are: Hispanic and white spouses (42%). White and Asian spouses (15%). White and multiracial spouses (12%)2. Gender Differences: Newlywed Black Men are twice as likely as newlywed Black women to be intermarried: In 2015, 24% of recently married Black men were intermarried, compared to 12% of newly married Black women. Among Asian newlyweds, there are also gender differences: 36% of newlywed Asian women were intermarried, compared to 21% of recently married Asian men1. Overall Trends: While interracial couples are becoming more normalized, the majority of individuals in new marriages still partner with someone of the same race or ethnicity (88%)3. It’s essential to recognize the progress made while acknowledging the ongoing need for diversity, acceptance, and understanding in relationships. In summary, interracial marriages continue to shape our society, bridging cultural divides and celebrating love beyond racial boundaries. 🌎❤🤝 Take care and God bless
Hello again, Lady Boule. First of all, thank you for asking this question. I think the answer to your question is our resilience. You are correct in your summation, if being black is so terrible, then why is our blackness appropriated worldwide by cultures and races who h8te us? It's counterintuitive of course. However, many of the most important contradictions in life are drawn from illogical reasoning. And in this case, I believe it's the illogical reasoning of h8tred which eminates from what people lack in their own culture but don't fully understand, because of the limitations they place on themselves. If society builds an open air prison for one group in order to keep that one group down, then the prison builders have simply created a prison for themselves to guard and maintain to ensure the prisoners don't escape. And God forbid, prosper. Has any group of people faced as many attempts at destroying the human spirit more than black people, only to refuse to give up and dare say we continuously rise and overcome? We are overcomers. We rise and rise and RISE. The world mimics and monetizes. But only black men and women carry this resilience in our DNA. This is why I can embrace being ADOS, while others say they'd rather move on or get over it. But why would I do that when I know my mere existence is the only defiance necessary to stop the plan to erase me and all that I stand for and remind them of? This country exports blackness but tries to give it a whitened facade. But black folks and everybody else knows, Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing Baby!
@AT-xl9vs: I think that the biggest "joke" is that the people who build and maintain and justify the prison, as well as their many allies and enablers all lie constantly about doing so, and that they do so while claiming some innate moral superiority over the people whom they work so hard to suppress, denigrate, and marginalize.
You may have to do a series on this. Fire azs topic.NO-ONE....wants to talk about. I thought we was so bad, scum, unwanted, huh! My MAMA, would say shame the Devil and tell the Truth. Ankh Em MA'AT is what EYE say. Square Bizness. 🖤💚❤️💜
Thanks again for a great explanation of our current state. This is probably going to be an unpopular opinion, however, Black American women seem to have lost the part of our culture that made them beautiful. You mentioned the hair and BBLs as stolen attributes to emulate, but what happened to some of us who have gone the way of BBLs, unrealistic weaves, makeup that only drag queens used to wear and clothes that were seen in porn movies? Some Black women have fallen into the trap of the stereotype and behaviors of the "Real House Wives of Wherever," which diminishes our image and credibility. If we take a look at the women that are with the Black men, there is nothing special, flashy and in some cases attractiveness about them. The same is true for the African women with white men.
There are many Black men who do not want Black women with natural hair who boast on social media about their preference. On the other hand there are Black men who like natural Black women, but they are often overshadowed by the other type of Black man.
I blame the White media in America for presenting us in such a negative light. Me, I've never been arrested nor do any of my family members have any history with the local police department and none of us are on welfare. We all finished high school and attended college and all of us are retired now. There are thousands more like us in America. We don't all play basketball or football, Me, I was lousy at contact sports and I hate PE in school. I don't even watch sports on TV so don't ask me about those championship games, I could care less.
Absolutely agree. I often find myself asking when did Pookie and Starkeisha become the face of Afro Americans? I have been a volunteer in blk communities all over the US for more than 20 years, I grew up in the hood! That persona was specific to a certain group of people. In my observations the average Afro American was just as you described. Now, everywhere that I turn I see their likeness. It is everywhere! Even on TV. When did this happen? What has happened ? I’m genuinely confused. Are that many blk ppl cosplaying these ppl orrrrr what?
Yes those people were melanated but we're not those people. No Hebrews went to West Africa and were brought to America during the mythical Transatlantic slave trade.
Imho, we can NEVER lose our BLACKNESS until we're no longer HERE and also, we don't have to wait until February to celebrate BLACKNESS because we LIVE it EVERYDAY! I don't worry at ALL about what other races think of US as being Black because, their INNATE hatred of US, is ACTUALLY a window to show US their ADMIRATION for US and if this weren't TRUE, then they wouldn't be talking about US, would they? That's something BFS MIGHT consider pondering!🤔
"Well I'm for one who think people should stop posting their children on social media, I can see it is just going to be a family member or friend who see this?" "Some people love to post their mixed kids all over the Internet? "Or you see the black grand parent in the store with their dark skin grand child and the light skin and is making sure to give all the attention to the light skin is so pathetic, I've seen it all? "No issue with people being with others but when you start fronting and bragging it is so trying to get attention or trying to justify something people are crazy!! I've seen and read so many stories about people like this and the black woman or man come up dead or cut up?" "And this new generation of black and brown children that always calling their parents or family members racist because they had rather their children or grand kids would be careful when dealing with certain people that is different than them, should not get mad and pay attention because the parents are just trying to keep them safe from those that hate them and will do anything to harm them, while smiling in their faces, plus they know things because they have been around and know these types! "Sometime I see why "The MH, said to not go in the way of certain people and things?" It was said for a reason, yet I still know that not everyone in a group, religion, race are sick people, but more in some than others, that is for sure! "So I would say to the young folks, it is a reason why your "Black family may want you to stick to your kind or not end up with some syco, it is not racist it is just facts, they don't want you to end up un alive dealing with the wrong type of those people? "For the last fifty or sixty years black and white people have tried to get along, be none bias, live in this rainbow, but "Black people get double cross at every turn with some of those people?"
We truly are God's chosen people 🙏🏾🙏🏾.... Just imagine if FBA's separated ourselves from everybody and nobody else could come around us or know what we were doing in our own country, these people would their everlasting lose their minds frfr..😂
Nevermind them being married! I HOPE THEY HAVE GOOD CAREERS, NOT JOBS….CAREERS! It would be a shame, if WE (tax payers) are taking care of them ALL! Otherwise, this is a beautiful family, I just haven’t seen such big families since the early 80s.😮
We are too worried about others & what they think. Empower yourself and serve only your self-interests. Be done with handouts, welfare, religions, democrats, and other nonsense; serve yourself. Love who you wish and be happy. The only people concerned are people still stuck with insecurities who do not know how to live. You are alive; that's enough; no one is holding you back but yourself.
Everyone knows that multi-racial identity doesn't work for those whom society sees as being black especially when the people making those decisions/judgements are whites or non-black people of some kind. Yet, people want to accuse black people of being the ones pushing the "one drop rule" instead of anti-black racists defending their alleged racial purity in other groups. Bi-racialism and multi-racialism are often weaponized by those who oppose black identity. The problem is that most of those who accuse black people of "forcing them to choose sides" so are not offended if they are "accused" of being white.
If I need an electrician, plumber, surgeon, or pilot, for example, I want the best, most qualified person for the job. I want the best black person IF he or she is THE best. The purpose of DEI is to provide equality and fairness for people who have been underrepresented in organizations, careers, and professions. But all people are not equal, even in our families. Some have talents and gifts while other family members lack those qualities. So, that kills the equality argument. In the human family, as well as in each person's family, we are not all equal. .................................Equity can only be applied when performance or the quality of the work does not require higher levels of responsibility. It can't even be applied, IMO, in most sports because it is usually a physical competition. Weaker competitors would be weeded out by losing or failing to qualify or advance...sort of a natural selection. DEI should not be utilized in professions that require specialized knowledge and abilities. In those professions, only the most prepared, capable person, regardless of race, should be selected and hiring should not be based on skin color or a disability as the primary factor. DEI is an insult to our people. We are under-represented in certain professions and careers. But if we get the job because of what we look like rather than by being the best...it's no good. Our skin color is not a disability.
The number of interracial marriages in the United States has increased from 2% in 1970 to 19% in 2019, representing a more than fivefold increase since the landmark Supreme Court case Loving v. Virginia legalized interracial marriage in 1967. Other numbers include: 1950s: 5% public approval 1967: 3% of married couples were interracial 1970: 2% of married couples were interracial 1980: 7% of newlyweds were interracial 2005: 7% of married couples were interracial 2010: 8.4% of married couples were interracial 2015: 17% of newlyweds were interracial Public approval of interracial marriage has also increased from 5% in the 1950s to 94% in 2021.
The percentage of Black newlyweds who marry someone of a different race or ethnicity has more than tripled since 1980, from 5% to 18% in 2015. Here's one of the biggest statistical changes in American opinion: Approval of interracial marriage in the U.S. is at a new high of 94%, according to Gallup polling. Why it matters: When Gallup first asked the question in 1958, just 4% of Americans approved of interracial couples. That approval rating is sky-high no matter how you slice the data. Age: 98% of 18- to 29-year-olds approve; 97%, 30-49; 91%, 50+ Race: 96% of non-white Americans; 93%, white Region: 94%, East; 93%, Midwest; 93%, South; 97%, West The prevalence of intermarriage has also increased. Back in 1967, just 3% of married couples were interracial. Now it's 20%, according to Pew Research Center. The big picture: There are many reasons contributing to the rise of interracial dating and marriages in the U.S., The Guardian reports: Acceptance of interracial couples has steadily grown - though unique challenges and stressors for these couples still exist. Many interracial couples in the U.S. are feeling anxiety, "with heated public debate on issues involving racial justice, immigration, and even direct attacks on minority groups," CBS News "Sunday Morning" reported. America is increasingly diverse - and is projected to have a majority minority population by 2045, increasing the diversity of potential romantic partners. Younger Americans are more educated than ever. There's a higher rate of interracial marriage among those with more education, studies show. The bottom line: 55 years after the legalization of interracial marriage, Americans nearly unanimously approve of love across races. Take care and God bless

Well, Black women have largely put aside our hair and embraced other people’s. We saw value in their hair type and still do so it’s hypocritical to say they shouldn’t wear box brads and Afros. How many Black women wear their own hair even on their wedding day? We wear other people’s hair more than they do ours. Indian, Peruvian, Colombian and everything in between. A lot of BW are excellent at promoting what’s not ours. So why are you upset when people imitate our hair styles/type? When it comes to hair BW are the copycats. Not vice versa. When we wear our own hair, we are organic. When we try so hard to wear other people’s, we are THE copycats.
You people keep getting on the internet telling that lie. Also if BW did wear their hair straight, it's not like laws were made dictating how they should wear their natural hair, in order to conform in school or work environments. That certainly never happened.

As you get older uncomfortable truths reveal themselves. And here's yet another one - There is a difference between culture and pop culture. Afro American pop culture is influential and adopted. But the culture is not respected and looked down on. Many other cultures and peoples would never want their children to marry an Afro American. Even a lot of Africans feel this way. In us, they see a culture of crime, broken families, single mothers, and a majority of children born out of wedlock. They don't see us men as husbands, fathers, and builders. I realize it's far more comfortable to claim we're the greatest and most admired people in the world. But it simply isn't true.
You could not have said this better, thank you. They love the mainstream, socially popular aspects of black pop culture, but often have no interest in inspecting the black story, struggles, and socioeconomic disparities. In fact, the most active supporters of black pop culture, middle class caucasian youngsters, are probably the most racially hostile to blacks, and perpetuate their legacy of racism actively on them, while desiring their bodies, sports and musical talents. It's all so bizarre.
As an african, we dont want yall with your dumb gender wars. It is destroying our society as we speak.
PART‼️ of what you advised is true. Even Black immigrants see us as this or that BUT then it goes back to the question: IF WE ARE SO BAD WHY ADOPT WHAT YOU SAY IS OUR "POP" CUKTURE? It goes deeper than money. You can make money yes but why continue to emmulate? Makes 0 sense. Im not impressed by aby immigrant culture so i do not eat their food, model their looks, listen to their music, etc. 0 interest
The majority of channels that I watch on TH-cam are interracial couples,seems the algorithm pushes it
Why would they push that? It seems to conjure anger in the black community. Why would they want that?
@@meme-fs1jn 1) It doesn’t stir up contention in the black community. They have thousands of subscribers 2) since when does TH-cam care what causes trouble in the black community? Us arguing amongst ourselves is big numbers for the channels that do it
They aren't pushing it. They are promoting it. Promoting African men and women purge out their bloodlines.
She is a fool Eleven kids without marriage😮
And she is too
I mean He is too
She got the same black man
He needs to do a DNA test on the kids
I have five children. I will never marry their father. I don’t care how many times that he asks me. I don’t take oaths to God. It’s unethical.
So true, Lady Boule! I think about this from time to time!🙄😁🤷🏾♀️😎
Definitely being monetize, but not by us. Also there is a usurping of our likeness. Gatekeeping is important. We're reclaiming US.
Exactly no other race of people except biracial children as their race, they consider them mixed or biracial. Black people are the only group of people that will call these biracial children blk and let them erase our blk image as black people, it’s crazy
Because it's not awful in fact it's very envied and that's part of the real problem .🎉❤
🎯
They use to call it “color struck” it’s still a thing unfortunately. They want it because we got it,and in their hearts and minds they believe we don’t deserve it. It’s all so silly. I won’t be around to see any of this work itself out. I believe in the positive change that has occurred,and that which will occur. Keep giving it to them Lady
Some are still color struck
Very true. They’re envious of us and want to take away our humanity.
It’s also why in movies and TV shows, Black men are often portrayed as the “Black Sage” or “Magical Knee-gro.” Sort of an inconsequential person with folky wisdom to mystical abilities, who helps the predominately White lead overcome a hurdle towards prosperity. The Green Mile, Rocky IV, Bruce Almighty, Legend of Bagger Vance, The Matrix, Not another Teen movie, The LEGO movie, Unbreakable, MCU & Nick Fury, etc. But in the end, the “Black Sage” doesn’t get the credit, it’s the hero of the story that does. He’s meant to be a sort of sacrifice for the betterment of society, and to his own detriment.
the world is literally built on keeping black people subservient to whites. why do you think people hate it when we succeed?@@ian_ford
@@ian_ford I saw a white woman on tiktok say something to this affect. Shew was in nursing school and she said she expected the black women to help her. She realized that all of her life she thought black people were around to make her life better
The question that I have always had is why people marry into a family that they know is racist against them and people who look like them.
You never heard Bill withers: far too many will invite humiliation just to pretend they're above the rest of their oppressed peers. As long as they can be near "high class ppl" they accept degradation.
Great video coverage Queen the most recognized copy and duplicated. These other groups want to have what we have, do what we do , and be who we are. We're the standard. Black community take your hat off in salute yourself
We FBA have no friends
Please stop that. That is not true. African Americans and Blacks of the disapora have always helped each other. Some of the best ones have been a product of....shall we say a "cross cultural collaboration." Let us not allow negative people on both sides to foment discord and disunity.
I am certainly Proud of being Black. God made us and we are a Blessed People. I am so Proud of Our Black Ancestors for all of their ACCOMPLISHMENTS and starting with and in humble beginnings( essentially many starting with nothing). But God brought us through so many obstacles! Thank you Lord!!! You have us here!!!
Always Imitated, but NEVER DUPLICATED😂😂😂😂!!!!!!
Well said! What irks me is how black people clamoring and supporting these couples! That black man should have invested in his own then that Indian.
Not black only. But we had a TH-camr who went out of her way to adopt an Asian child with autism. She said she wanted to adopt someone who she can help… in Asia it’s hard to adopt their children outside the country or even race… you know what she did… when it got hard… she sent him back and blamed him! Saying the boy tried to hurt her biological daughter 😂
What is the TH-camrs name?

I agree , it’s becoming a Slideshow ; Curly Haired Blondes of Mixed Race.
Like animals , like a circus.
I usually see black male and white female as couples in advertisements.
Right. I very rarely see black woman/non-black man, but I see plenty of couples in ads that show black man/non-black woman.
Facts
as a black man my experience has been black women don’t find black men attractive. It might have something to do with it.
Those children are NOT BLACK those are mixed children. That has nothing to do with black people. Those kids are born outside of our community not in it.
True. The mother of these churen have opinions about blkppl, she is jealous of her daughters
Exactly. Most of them are raised within the white community, but the white community does not except them as white, and more than likely most of those biracial children will marry white and create even whiter looking children and completely erase that black man’s image, his grandchildren will be white and he’s proud of that as a black man, these men really hate themselves, smh
There will have to be an additional racial identity now that it is a fad. They often are not part of the black community.
Those children have the right to be black, and you have no right to take this from them
@@Claribelle401 we have the right to see and all them as they truly are and u don’t get to tell us how to perceive our likeness! They are not blk. They are biracial.

Well, we wear their straight hairstyles, they might as well Afros and braids. I’ve been natural for a long time and cry a little when I see sisters with straight hair. My cousin brought her kids up in cornrows and braids. Her oldest just turned 18 and relaxed her hair. I’m so sad but it’s her hair.
Don't cry for me. I know who I am and who I belong to. That's just another part of our uniqueness. No culture can do what we do with black 🖤 hair. Like burger King, we wear it our way. Straight nappy, kinky , I'm Black 🖤 and Proud. Happy Black 🖤 history, yesterday, today and to our blessed tomorrow's. 🙏 ❤
It's very important Lady Boule to point this out, with your commentary. Enjoy your weekend, be blessed 🙏
@@denisehenry3427Exactly. I couldn't see myself being so concerned about how another grown Black woman wears her hair anyway. How BW wear their hair has been legislated and policed. Other races of women's hair has not.
@@mellod5615 it signals to me she’s mimicking white textures, that’s why. Why not accept what grows out of your head?
@quix66hiya22 So you're gonna act like when Black women wear their hair in natural styles at work or at school they don't get told it's unprofessional, and distracting? You're gonna completely remove that context. And ignore the fact that despite how natural hair is negatively viewed inside and outside the Black community, millions of Black women are wearing their natural hair. There's been a natural hair movement going on so long it's been co-opted by mixed and white women. So the idea that no Black women are wearing their hair natural is false. Maybe you should get you some business of your own to tend to, then you wouldn't have to worry about other Black women's hair.
@@mellod5615agree with your point but why do we keep waiting to get permission from other people to live. I have had my hair 10 years and got a job all the way from Africa to the west on my hair. Let me tell you, we can put our hair up in a bun and gel it, we can corn row, braid it. There are other styles that doesn’t include us wearing straight hair and living under other peoples wigs 247 . So yes those thing happened and do happen and it’s sad but you cannot sit around and waiting for everyone to accept you because even with wigs you are still rejected. You have to accept yourself or be the best at what you do that they do not have a choice .
You are right sister
Interracial Marriage Trends:
Since the landmark Loving v. Virginia case in 1967, which legalized marriage across racial lines, intermarriage has steadily increased in the United States.
In 2015, one-in-six U.S. newlyweds (17%) were married to a person of a different race or ethnicity, marking a significant rise from the 3% in 1967.
Among all married people (not just newlyweds), 10% are now intermarried, totaling 11 million individuals1.
Asian and Hispanic Newlyweds:
Asian and Hispanic newlyweds are the most likely to be intermarried:
Nearly three-in-ten Asian newlyweds (29%) were married to someone of a different race or ethnicity in 2015.
27% of Hispanic newlyweds also had intermarriages.
These rates were especially prevalent among U.S.-born Hispanics (39%) and U.S.-born Asian newlyweds (46%)1.
Black and White Newlyweds:
The intermarriage rate among Black newlyweds has significantly increased:
In 1980, only 5% of Black newlyweds were intermarried.
By 2015, this rate had risen to 18%.
Among white newlyweds, the intermarriage rate also increased:
In 1980, it was 4%.
By 2015, it reached 11%1.
Common Pairings:
The most common racial or ethnic pairings among newlywed intermarried couples are:
Hispanic and white spouses (42%).
White and Asian spouses (15%).
White and multiracial spouses (12%)2.
Gender Differences:
Newlywed Black Men are twice as likely as newlywed Black women to be intermarried:
In 2015, 24% of recently married Black men were intermarried, compared to 12% of newly married Black women.
Among Asian newlyweds, there are also gender differences:
36% of newlywed Asian women were intermarried, compared to 21% of recently married Asian men1.
Overall Trends:
While interracial couples are becoming more normalized, the majority of individuals in new marriages still partner with someone of the same race or ethnicity (88%)3.
It’s essential to recognize the progress made while acknowledging the ongoing need for diversity, acceptance, and understanding in relationships.
In summary, interracial marriages continue to shape our society, bridging cultural divides and celebrating love beyond racial boundaries. 🌎❤🤝
Take care and God bless
Because green is the bottom line.
These things are acceptable on other races of women.
All those kids, And all those years, And she still got the same dress?
So what
Hello again, Lady Boule. First of all, thank you for asking this question. I think the answer to your question is our resilience. You are correct in your summation, if being black is so terrible, then why is our blackness appropriated worldwide by cultures and races who h8te us? It's counterintuitive of course. However, many of the most important contradictions in life are drawn from illogical reasoning. And in this case, I believe it's the illogical reasoning of h8tred which eminates from what people lack in their own culture but don't fully understand, because of the limitations they place on themselves. If society builds an open air prison for one group in order to keep that one group down, then the prison builders have simply created a prison for themselves to guard and maintain to ensure the prisoners don't escape. And God forbid, prosper. Has any group of people faced as many attempts at destroying the human spirit more than black people, only to refuse to give up and dare say we continuously rise and overcome? We are overcomers. We rise and rise and RISE. The world mimics and monetizes. But only black men and women carry this resilience in our DNA. This is why I can embrace being ADOS, while others say they'd rather move on or get over it. But why would I do that when I know my mere existence is the only defiance necessary to stop the plan to erase me and all that I stand for and remind them of? This country exports blackness but tries to give it a whitened facade. But black folks and everybody else knows, Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing Baby!
👋👋👋💯💥
@AT-xl9vs: I think that the biggest "joke" is that the people who build and maintain and justify the prison, as well as their many allies and enablers all lie constantly about doing so, and that they do so while claiming some innate moral superiority over the people whom they work so hard to suppress, denigrate, and marginalize.
Well said!!!
Thanks Boule Excellent points be well everyone....🎉😂❤🎉
Interesting topic. Have a wonderful, blessed day!🤗

Why the Indian remy weave/wig baby hair extensions craze then? Why not rock your natural if you’re proud of your “blackness”? 🤷🏾♂️
@aspeltaofkush3540 “Many of us do”… I’m outside, many, many, many more of us do not. Discrimination shouldn’t make you hide who you are. Period.
Wow! I really love your take on this.
Thanks again for a great explanation of our current state. This is probably going to be an unpopular opinion, however, Black American women seem to have lost the part of our culture that made them beautiful. You mentioned the hair and BBLs as stolen attributes to emulate, but what happened to some of us who have gone the way of BBLs, unrealistic weaves, makeup that only drag queens used to wear and clothes that were seen in porn movies?
Some Black women have fallen into the trap of the stereotype and behaviors of the "Real House Wives of Wherever," which diminishes our image and credibility. If we take a look at the women that are with the Black men, there is nothing special, flashy and in some cases attractiveness about them. The same is true for the African women with white men.
There are many Black men who do not want Black women with natural hair who boast on social media about their preference. On the other hand there are Black men who like natural Black women, but they are often overshadowed by the other type of Black man.
When you watch the movie: The Rabbit-proof Fence, then you will understand why the IR relationships are happening. This is not a mistake.
True. Yet, blkppl will call it lies.
I blame the White media in America for presenting us in such a negative light. Me, I've never been arrested nor do any of my family members have any history with the local police department and none of us are on welfare. We all finished high school and attended college and all of us are retired now. There are thousands more like us in America. We don't all play basketball or football, Me, I was lousy at contact sports and I hate PE in school. I don't even watch sports on TV so don't ask me about those championship games, I could care less.
Absolutely agree. I often find myself asking when did Pookie and Starkeisha become the face of Afro Americans? I have been a volunteer in blk communities all over the US for more than 20 years, I grew up in the hood! That persona was specific to a certain group of people. In my observations the average Afro American was just as you described. Now, everywhere that I turn I see their likeness. It is everywhere! Even on TV. When did this happen? What has happened ? I’m genuinely confused. Are that many blk ppl cosplaying these ppl orrrrr what?
We are the people of the Holy Book and have a bloodline inheritance waiting on us. HalleluYAH ✊🏾
Yes those people were melanated but we're not those people. No Hebrews went to West Africa and were brought to America during the mythical Transatlantic slave trade.
Imho, we can NEVER lose our BLACKNESS until we're no longer HERE and also, we don't have to wait until February to celebrate BLACKNESS because we LIVE it EVERYDAY!
I don't worry at ALL about what other races think of US as being Black because, their INNATE hatred of US, is ACTUALLY a window to show US their ADMIRATION for US and if this weren't TRUE, then they wouldn't be talking about US, would they?
That's something BFS MIGHT consider pondering!🤔
"Well I'm for one who think people should stop posting their children on social media, I can see it is just going to be a family member or friend who see this?" "Some people love to post their mixed kids all over the Internet? "Or you see the black grand parent in the store with their dark skin grand child and the light skin and is making sure to give all the attention to the light skin is so pathetic, I've seen it all? "No issue with people being with others but when you start fronting and bragging it is so trying to get attention or trying to justify something people are crazy!! I've seen and read so many stories about people like this and the black woman or man come up dead or cut up?"
"And this new generation of black and brown children that always calling their parents or family members racist because they had rather their children or grand kids would be careful when dealing with certain people that is different than them, should not get mad and pay attention because the parents are just trying to keep them safe from those that hate them and will do anything to harm them, while smiling in their faces, plus they know things because they have been around and know these types!
"Sometime I see why "The MH, said to not go in the way of certain people and things?" It was said for a reason, yet I still know that not everyone in a group, religion, race are sick people, but more in some than others, that is for sure! "So I would say to the young folks, it is a reason why your "Black family may want you to stick to your kind or not end up with some syco, it is not racist it is just facts, they don't want you to end up un alive dealing with the wrong type of those people? "For the last fifty or sixty years black and white people have tried to get along, be none bias, live in this rainbow, but "Black people get double cross at every turn with some of those people?"
We truly are God's chosen people 🙏🏾🙏🏾.... Just imagine if FBA's separated ourselves from everybody and nobody else could come around us or know what we were doing in our own country, these people would their everlasting lose their minds frfr..😂
Unfortunately Maya Angelou fell victim to the same thing, and died six months later!
I LOVE 💕 BEING BLACK,I WOULDN'T WANT TO BE ANY OTHER RACE PROUD BLACK MAN HERE🖤🖤
Nevermind them being married! I HOPE THEY HAVE GOOD CAREERS, NOT JOBS….CAREERS! It would be a shame, if WE (tax payers) are taking care of them ALL! Otherwise, this is a beautiful family, I just haven’t seen such big families since the early 80s.😮
On TH-cam there are MANY of these couples with a white dad and black mom tho
I reclaim my PRIDE!!!
Why can't.people just leave us alone!
We are too worried about others & what they think. Empower yourself and serve only your self-interests. Be done with handouts, welfare, religions, democrats, and other nonsense; serve yourself. Love who you wish and be happy. The only people concerned are people still stuck with insecurities who do not know how to live. You are alive; that's enough; no one is holding you back but yourself.
I love being a brown skinned woman. It’s who I am. No one can change how I feel about me except me.
Everyone knows that multi-racial identity doesn't work for those whom society sees as being black especially when the people making those decisions/judgements are whites or non-black people of some kind. Yet, people want to accuse black people of being the ones pushing the "one drop rule" instead of anti-black racists defending their alleged racial purity in other groups. Bi-racialism and multi-racialism are often weaponized by those who oppose black identity. The problem is that most of those who accuse black people of "forcing them to choose sides" so are not offended if they are "accused" of being white.
If I need an electrician, plumber, surgeon, or pilot, for example, I want the best, most qualified person for the job. I want the best black person IF he or she is THE best. The purpose of DEI is to provide equality and fairness for people who have been underrepresented in organizations, careers, and professions. But all people are not equal, even in our families. Some have talents and gifts while other family members lack those qualities. So, that kills the equality argument. In the human family, as well as in each person's family, we are not all equal. .................................Equity can only be applied when performance or the quality of the work does not require higher levels of responsibility. It can't even be applied, IMO, in most sports because it is usually a physical competition. Weaker competitors would be weeded out by losing or failing to qualify or advance...sort of a natural selection. DEI should not be utilized in professions that require specialized knowledge and abilities. In those professions, only the most prepared, capable person, regardless of race, should be selected and hiring should not be based on skin color or a disability as the primary factor. DEI is an insult to our people. We are under-represented in certain professions and careers. But if we get the job because of what we look like rather than by being the best...it's no good. Our skin color is not a disability.
We are the most diverse race of people on the planet.
Do they ever change their clothes?
I am very annoyed by this narrative
The number of interracial marriages in the United States has increased from 2% in 1970 to 19% in 2019, representing a more than fivefold increase since the landmark Supreme Court case Loving v. Virginia legalized interracial marriage in 1967. Other numbers include:
1950s: 5% public approval
1967: 3% of married couples were interracial
1970: 2% of married couples were interracial
1980: 7% of newlyweds were interracial
2005: 7% of married couples were interracial
2010: 8.4% of married couples were interracial
2015: 17% of newlyweds were interracial
Public approval of interracial marriage has also increased from 5% in the 1950s to 94% in 2021.
The percentage of Black newlyweds who marry someone of a different race or ethnicity has more than tripled since 1980, from 5% to 18% in 2015.
Here's one of the biggest statistical changes in American opinion: Approval of interracial marriage in the U.S. is at a new high of 94%, according to Gallup polling.
Why it matters: When Gallup first asked the question in 1958, just 4% of Americans approved of interracial couples.
That approval rating is sky-high no matter how you slice the data.
Age: 98% of 18- to 29-year-olds approve; 97%, 30-49; 91%, 50+
Race: 96% of non-white Americans; 93%, white
Region: 94%, East; 93%, Midwest; 93%, South; 97%, West
The prevalence of intermarriage has also increased.
Back in 1967, just 3% of married couples were interracial. Now it's 20%, according to Pew Research Center.
The big picture: There are many reasons contributing to the rise of interracial dating and marriages in the U.S., The Guardian reports:
Acceptance of interracial couples has steadily grown - though unique challenges and stressors for these couples still exist. Many interracial couples in the U.S. are feeling anxiety, "with heated public debate on issues involving racial justice, immigration, and even direct attacks on minority groups," CBS News "Sunday Morning" reported.
America is increasingly diverse - and is projected to have a majority minority population by 2045, increasing the diversity of potential romantic partners.
Younger Americans are more educated than ever. There's a higher rate of interracial marriage among those with more education, studies show.
The bottom line: 55 years after the legalization of interracial marriage, Americans nearly unanimously approve of love across races.
Take care and God bless
I had a friend in elementary school in the 80s from Trinidad and she had the craziest weave. I was so surprised to see a child or anyone with a weave. I hate to tell you that is something that is mostly imported on popular culture. A lot of the trashyness is imported.
I have been thinking the exact same thing. Even that twerking crap is imported from the Caribbean basically an off shoot of slow winding.
Most of the worst that's attributed to our FBA culture is imported crap.

Well, Black women have largely put aside our hair and embraced other people’s. We saw value in their hair type and still do so it’s hypocritical to say they shouldn’t wear box brads and Afros.
How many Black women wear their own hair even on their wedding day? We wear other people’s hair more than they do ours. Indian, Peruvian, Colombian and everything in between. A lot of BW are excellent at promoting what’s not ours. So why are you upset when people imitate our hair styles/type? When it comes to hair BW are the copycats. Not vice versa. When we wear our own hair, we are organic. When we try so hard to wear other people’s, we are THE copycats.
Having long hair is due to genetics. The BW who don't have long hair have to wear weave.
You people keep getting on the internet telling that lie. Also if BW did wear their hair straight, it's not like laws were made dictating how they should wear their natural hair, in order to conform in school or work environments. That certainly never happened.
Learn the difference between assimilation and appropriation. Plenty of bw wear their own hair you can google the proof.
Other people wear our sh*t. baby. They copy us. Theyve been doing it since the beginning of time and you have all races doing it because they're followers 😂 are you dumb? how do you try to emulate a group of people you don't like and respect?

All peoples of the earth participate, are complicit in, and act, and speak according to and adhere to a specific code of reverse psychology etc. that we as so-called black people are only beginning to recognize and understand. They all silently acknowledge the superior race (black people) and have worked tirelessly for generations, ensuring that the black mind, family, etc. remains under attack and bombarded with highly stressful scenarios daily. This is a worldwide concerted and tactical effort being orchestrated and carried out by all parties against an "unsuspecting" people group whose trust unfortunately lies outside of itself and in the hands of a friendly "enemy."

Hi Lady Boule we are the most copy in the world and great inventers and they know it
In the blk hood, once momma get rid of daddy, she can't teach the children to love themselves & teach them history? It's a dumb down!
Shut up
Exactly how can a "momma get rid of daddy"? A real man raises his children and are there for them. I am so tired of men of all races making excuses for not being in their children lives. Black men have perfected that excuse. Also, what "blk hood" were you raised?
Love it!!
Why are you making it sound like it's better for him to have sons and when he has daughter he's trapped?
Is that how you understood it? Sorry.
