as black men we gotta stop putting mixed women over black women

[Dzali OG]

Fukkin with the white and mulatto women is what got nikkas in trouble in AfRaka and got them conquered!

lighter skinned blacks and mixed blacks alike often play the shyt out of dark skinned blacks, especially when they are put in a position of power over them. That was one of the intended consequences of raping slaves to make a lighter skinned subrace of blacks who concsciously and/or subconsciously believed in and perpetuated white/light supremacy

True, however mixed people do not have a stand alone system such as white supremacy that directly denigrates and marginalizes black people via laws and policies. Mixed people can only be agents of white supremacy but they are not the creators of it. And if we want to be honest, there are black people who are agents for white supremacy as well. So mixed people(light-skinned blacks) are not the only ones with dirty hands.

Because we are in an era where any thing with black is defined as black.

I wanted to be more specific

People should like who they like. If you like mixed women, more power to you. The problem I have is when people denigrate black women and make them inferior. They're already shamed by television and music (I don't see how any black woman can buy Lil Wayne albums after his comment about dark women), having friends and family members do it too must be unbearable.

Beyonce gets whiter every year. Alicia Keys looks lighter. 95% of black women on television are light skinned. That's a problem, image wise. I've been to Africa, I've seen beautiful women that were darker than I could imagine. I've seen beautiful, dark women from India. I've seen beautiful dark women in the US. They exist, and if you're a straight man you'll probably be attracted to some. The western media isn't gonna help us with this, WE have to do it on our own. That means raising darker black girls to feel good about themselves, feel good about their hair, and teaching them to take care of their skin. A big problem with many darker women is that they have poor complexions; acne, pimples, etc. I think a lot of this stems from bad self esteem. Clearing that up works wonders IMO.

5 star post.

But Alecia Keys is directly mixed so her complexion is only natural.

mixed people are seen as black by white people. they fool themselves if they think they receive preferential treatment because they're light-skinned. not so at all. when a mixed boy walks into a store, he's seen as a black criminal just the same as a "full" black boy. the same dynamic plays out in any scenario where the mixed boy is being judged by white eyes.

You need to stop giving a fukk what white people think, breh. Mixed people arent black.

Wtf is wrong with having an interracial relationship? How is a person a c00n because they procreate with someone of a different race

They do it for all the wrong reasons. Not out of love, but out of status and having "prettier" babies.

Stop generalizing people, "they" dont represent everybody in an interracial relationship and those are some absurd assumptions

Absurd? Its more commonplace than you think. Need to open your eyes more.

It's not absurd. A lot of blacks have kids with different races so they can have prettier hair and other non-black features.

this is false. there are more dark-skinned women on television than there are light-skinned ones, because whites feel the light-skinned women compete with them too much. you're putting out bullshyt statistics to support your petty grievances over being dark-skinned. get a grip.

no, they don't. where are you getting this?!?! maybe people just have kids with different races because they love the person they're with.

Aren't you mixed? Clearly you feeling some type of way and your opinion is certainly not objective. Everybody in the black community is well aware of this.

A lot of people also have kids with a different race because that person of a different race just happens to be the person theyre in love with, not because they dont want to pass down their black features

You coli nikkas seem to think every black person in an interracial relationship are some Sammy Sosa type nikkas who do it to intentionally spite dark skinned women and hate their own looks that landed them that person in the first place, and me speaking from personal experience being in an interracial relationship and knowing several people who are dating outside their race thats gotta be the dumbest shyt ive heard since being on this site

nikka I didn't type that, fakkit.

And petty grievances? The fukk are you talking about? I love being a darkskin nikka. Stop being salty because I called your moms half-cac and confused.
