Interracial Dating: Is this Video Racist?

January 9, 2011 11 Comments

The beginning segment of a tearful black woman (“they don’t want me”) is absolutely tear-jerking. As far as the rest of this mess, is it true?

@Niki_mimi, it is hateful. It is wrong. Just this week there was a study that said black women were ugly. We need to combat this thinking.

Thanks for commenting. I too find the notion of the video quite crazy, but when the woman at the beginning starts to cry, well, that’s crazy.

This video is ridiculous! As a white male, I much prefer black women over most white women. Don’t get me wrong, I love women in general and don’t usually look at race as a factor, but I tend to lean towards a black woman instead.

I agree, Keke. After looking at it a few times I see that it is not representative of the real problem facing black women, or black men, for that matter. It’s just a shard, a sharp, ragged one, but just a shard of a bigger issue. Thanks for posting.

This video is misrepresents the issues of Black women in so many ways. It does not address the sexist and patriarchal hierarchies that control how Black women can (or can’t) achieve economic agency and independence. It does not address how white media uses propaganda to perpetuate the stereotypes that guarantee that Black women will never, ever be able to challenge America’s entrenched racism. In a word, this video is rubbish. I know many beautiful, successful and wonderful Black women who are happily married (some to men of different races) and their relationships are based on mutual RESPECT, and not what their partners THINK they may be like.

It’s the same old B.S. We are all lumped together by the actions of a few, and those actions are raised up as the image of all we are. It is a lie, it is a scam and unfortunately it works. It is the same lies that aided in keeping slavery alive, sustaining the holocaust, and it will continue to shape how Black women are seen, and not allow Black women to create these images for themselves.
This video is BS!!!

I hate this video this is everything that is wrong with black america. This video is so… I can even find the words, this needs to be taken down. It make me sick to my stomach so excuse me while I go throwup.

that video was so ridiculous on so many levels LOLthe young lady who was saying no man wants to date her, I need for her to analyze herself closely to see what it is that she is doing that gives her the impression that NO ONE wants to date her…that saying that there is someone for everyone is TRUE so I fail to believe NO ONE in the world wants her…she wasn’t bad looking at all so something is wrong thereas for black women dating white men, I think people should do what they want…it isn’t any of my business and in the event I decide to date someone who isn’t black, that’s my business; i’ve dated men who were “mixed” but never just solely, white, mexican, asian, etc. it isn’t because I abhor them…it’s for the simple fact of what the lady at the end said…they aren’t accesible to us as their woman counterparts are to Black men.I’m not mad at it…I just date who I like and who likes me…problem solved LOL
