I meant the daughters Jennifer Freeman and Parker McKenna Posey. They are biracial. Jennifer has a Spaniard father and Parker has a white mother. Damon and Tisha are both black with 2 biracial children and 1 black son.

Why you assumed I was talking about Tisha when there's two obvious biracial children of the show is pretty ridiculous

You know her momma white naming her after Parker Posey, lol

This isn't new though.
The Cosby show?
Every commercial with black folks on tv?

Watch any of the representations of black families anywhere and seemingly every family can birth one if not several biracial children lol
:lolbron:Took the words right out of my mouth

I don't think i've ever seen a "regular looking" black family portrayed on television or in movies. Even tyler perry movies be like that, with every shade of black imaginable in the same house.. and don't nobody "look alike".

However; House of Payne might have been the closest to "normal" in terms of look and just the way she show was in general.

Blackish is getting unwarranted criticisms. The mom is mixed and they let you know she is rather than pretend she isn't unlike many other shows.

However, the kids and the extended family are unambiguously black:what:

The lightest kid is the son, whereas the girls are undoubtedly black (which is rare these day) with the youngest daughter being the darkest (which is again very rare) and the younger boy is typical brown shade.

Y'all attacking a rare show today which represents black excellence; simply cutting off your nose to spite your face.

The girl from the show is Mixed her dad is Arab. The only one that is not mixed is the youngest girl

In the UK, every tv advert with a black man or woman is almost always in a IR relationship. I peeped it a couple years ago and ever since it's been prominent. The conditioning is real brehs.
This Amurica bish

Lol UK is a majority white country with a history of blacks less than 100 years.

You dont see pakistani or Indians moaning ....

It's amazing how some black men are so stupid that they are letting insecure dark skin black women bait them into attacking light skin black women. NEWSFLASH them chicks don't give a fukk about the black community that is an excuse they use. It's all about ego and feeling inferior to light skin/bir-racial women. They want to be praised and have their asses kissed, they dont give a damn about keeping full bloodlines.

The same chicks complaining about lightskin/bi-racial women are the same ones who would jump at the chance of having kids with a white man if presented the option. Then they will have a daughter the same color as the ones they claim to hate :mjlol:

Breh lol. When i first visited America i was :ohhh: at how many dark skinned black people there was cos all I was used to seeing was AA in the media. My anecdotal memories is most were in the dark to brown category.

TV will fukk up a person's reality, i swear:mjlol:
In America the average skin tone for black people is something like Anthony Anderson, not Wesley snipes.

The brother may be Afram, may be 1st generation
The "sister" may be racially ambiguous/white/"Spanish"
The children are biracial and don't look anything like the "father"

But one thing for sure, this is what the media portrays as the ideal "Black" family

Marketing leaders instead must ask, “What values and goals guide our brand strategy, what capabilities drive marketing excellence, and what structures and ways of working will support them?” Structure must follow strategy—not the other way arouand

This thread isn't about the show...

It's about the media white washing Black families.... Making them Blackish
