It isn't about building a Black economic base or creating strong Black families with many of these "educated" Black people/feminist, it's about romanticizing their intellect and using it as a cash cow and an appeal to the opposite gender, regardless of race.
Society currently teaches women to value themselves by comparing their self image to models and stereotypes portrayed by television and magazines. Because of this, many girls grow up hating themselves because they are different from what society sees as ‘beautiful’.
So when they get with a white man, they view it as someone from the dominate culture confirming blacks women's beauty.
She basically confirmed my thoughts on Black Feminist and Rich Pro Blacks like Henry Gates. I always maintain that Poor Blacks are the only truly Pro Black people, as a whole.

But it isn't just women. Black men in academia and activism do the same exact thing. What makes it terrible is that their careers are based on preaching Blackness, so either they don't believe what they preach, don't live around the very people they claim to want progress for, or they are delusional.

You also probably have a big ego because you are of a higher class and education level than most of your own people.
A lot of brothers in academia don't pretend to like black women.
The women seem to want to say they like black men but never end up with one

Either they were not good looking or popular enough for her aka a nerd.She says she wants a black man, but I wonder how many good ones she's turned down.
Either way its terrible because these are the people leading our marches, representing us on television screens and teaching courses in higher education about us.
