She was half asian. And they dip their foot in everyone’s pond. And no one knows why they broke up, since he’s never spoken about it. But your comment shows whites are more comfortable with a black man with a non black woman. And the fact that he had a united black family really angered white people.

I’ve heard some black men liken fucking white women to getting reparations. Simply, this way of thinking is disturbing, sad and disgusting.

Latin America is filled with mixed people. Light and dark people don’t disappear. White people still run things.

No shit says the lady in an interracial relationship if this is going to be a lecture about assuming. My point concerns misogynoir which is a problem in the black community.

Thank you! This is exactly the line that stuck out to me when reading the article but I couldn’t elaborate because I was at work on my phone when I replied.

I always thought Serena Williams and her husband were deeply in love.

RE: Buffer class

I chuckle a little because I sense Michael navigating on a tight rope.

“We have repeatedly seen our best and brightest black men choose white women over black women once they reach their apex. College Dropout Kanye was with a black girl, but once global superstar-producer-musician-fashion designer Kanye got on, he left our asses for a white girl. The same holds true for Michael Jordan,…
