but she isn't the greatest interviewer by any means. she missed some opportunities there with Jenna. Jenna was saying that whites have a higher status in America, which is true by perception, but Tyra let that and other opportunities for clarification go past her. I notice this with many of her episodes of this show.
Sad doesn't even begin to describe it. Like that girl is suppose to be biracial yet she looks black and have no signs of white on her. Her hair is black. There are biracial people who are obvious, curly hair special features etc. But she us just black and she should love how she came out
So one girl says she only claims her white side, and the whole audience flips. Another girl says she only claims her hispanic side, audience has no reaction.
Because its known white people dont claim you unless you are 100% white but hispanic means spanish speaking. Its not a race and neither is latino. Obviously whoever the other girl's parents was was a white Hispanic person and not an afro or black Hispanic person. All the terminologies in this video is so messed up
The muslim girl at the end, I felt really bad for her. the fact that tyra told her then that "this will end, it wont always be like that". its 2016 and its STILL a problem out here for muslims. but its okay cos we will always be okay.
When you worship an oppressive pagan moon god who sent you a warmongering so called prophet who married a 9 year old girl, you should be judged. You're not special and we see you judging everybody else, thinking that ugly cloth puts you above everybody else. Not to mention your cukt has spawned the most amount of t*rr*rists worldwide. Have a seat.
I love the Tyra show, but that darker-skinned young lady had a serious point, and I feel as though she was silenced. Lightskin privilege does exist, whether you claim/utilize it or not. I'm not saying that it means that women of a lighter complexion don't go through hard times too, but that doesnt' change the fact that when you are darker-skinned, you do tend to have a harder time in this world. It's sad, it's deplorable, and it needs to be stopped, but in order for it to change, we must first accept that it is a real problem.
im gonna be honest the only way to get people to care if dark skin black women are treated worse is to start looking good I see way too many dark skin women that are obese many wear synthetic weaves instead of real weaves ( real weaves are more expensive but if your gonna wear a weave you have to make sure it is the nice looking one not the synthetic shit dark skin black women love to wear) also wear sexier more trendy clothes. People truly only care about good looking attractive people and majority dark skin women are not putting in enough time and effort to look attractive
I loved this episode of Tyra because it was a wake up call for people who often made assumptions about race. I am half black, half Latina and when I was a senior in high school, a substitute teacher in my ap Spanish class asked which students were Hispanic and when I raised my hand, she told me to put my hand down because I'm perceived as only black (although I claim both sides). Of course, that was only one bad experience, but her ignorance does not define my identity. I know what I am and so do the people I love, which is what matters.
Steph Alston That substitute is a moron. Hispanic is a culture, not a color. If you were from the Dominican Republic (where they speak Spanish and a majority of people are multi-racial) you could be 100% Hispanic/Latina and also 100% black.. not that it's anyone's business.
Why is Tyra so quick to invalidate dark skinned people whenever they talk about colorism on the show? I would think she'd be better than that. I'd figure she'd take it seriously, because it's a very serious issue in the black community, the way lighter skinned people are often treated better.
Juana Torres no said it was her fault but if she was going to tackle this issue she should have both sides to this type of experience. The reason the first girl gravitates to her white side is because she is not visibly mixed. She literally says “if I was even lighter skin I would be higher” . Stop invalidating something that is very much valid and present.
@@tspopstar512 No, she's doing exactly what the dark skin girl is talking about...siding with the light skin girls by pretending colourism is not an issue therefore "treating" the lighter ones better by validating their point.
Tina Dod seriously. You can tell she wanted to dive deeper into certain topics concerning race in america that people were not ready to have in 2009... I would say that the early to Kay's were the Pinnacle of the "respectability" era as we know it. would love to see a revival
Tyra Banks has Nationality, Race and Ethinicity ALL TWISTED AROUND. Hispanic is NOT A RACE. It is an ethnicity. Puerto Rican, Dominican, Mexican are NATIONALITIES. There are many ethnicities in a race (Hispanic is in the white race), and many ethnicities and races in a Nationality (a Latina living and from Canada). GET IT RIGHT.
You're right. But Tyra isn't any different from anyone else. Race makes everything unnecessarily confusing. The only thing that should matter is nationality when it comes to counting population distinctions, maybe ethnicity. But race is ridiculous. And you're wrong. Hispanic isn't an ethnicity. It's just a label to categorize the various ethnic groups in the Americas who speak Spanish as a result of colonization, slavery, loss of indigenous language & genetic pollution.
anybody from anywhere can wear some got dern skinny jeans and sneakers im from Florida and that all I wear talkin bout from New York yall so freakin ignorant
I was sad when Jenna said inner city black people scare her and Christian said black women are on welfare. I'm from Baltimore City. I'm black. I don't live off of welfare. I have a college degree. I have a great job. I live on my own with no roommates or public assistance. My car is paid off. For anyone who may be thinking I'm an exception, I'm not. Most of my family is educated. Some of them millionaires. Very sad but whatever. We're all entitled to our opinions, however wrong they may be.
Jessica K preach gal.. i can relate coz my sisters for of them are so much accomplished and we the brothers in the home we work hard to catch up. Simply my sisters are role models i got in the world right now
+Jessica K I have the knowledge to be financially literate due to me listening to rich people's speeches and reading thier books but I am still financially underage to support myself. My parents have a house and they make horrible financial choices but this is where it gets ugly. They always ask how much money I have. One time I lied and I got in serious trouble so now I have to be honest. My paycheck I earn from work gets sucked from me because they can't pay what they owe because they make bad financial choices. I had to live in a hotel with them for 2 years because they couldn't pay for a house and they got evicted. Even in the hotel, my money was being sucked because they rented a hotel too high for them. There are effects to being financially illiterate. They could pay for one thing but can't pay for the other. Then they sacrifice something and that makes things worse because what they sacrifice is not the source of the problem. It's annoying being a dependent of dependent parents. They now want to start a business and they have gotten started but they are not taking any wisdom from other successful people who started from rock bottom. I can see them making bad financial choices even with thier business. I even try to tell them what I learned from the financially intelligent leaders but they tell me I'm wrong. So I sit back and watch them make thier own same mistakes but I am getting tired of being punished for thier bull
Dark skinned people definitely have it harder than light skinned. But because of that, some dark skinned people have a complex and bully light skinned people. It's a vicious cycle that needs to be broke.
Colorism affects both sides equally. Lights aren't white enough and dark skin women hate them as well and dark skin women don't farm like they belong anywhere as well
And I don't like the way that the three lighter Black women on the panel tried to discredit what Janell was trying to tell them. "The excitement that they feel for you is the contempt that they feel for us." Truer words were never spoken. I'm not saying that they didn't go through their share of struggles, but someone exclaiming about the paleness of someone's skin is not the same as having their entire (dark) complexion, and by extension, everyone who shares that complexion, being associated with ugliness.
I'm a Afro American, but I was badly burned at age 9. I was called burnt back by my own brothers and sisters as well as my peers. This has made me a strong person.
I bet that flag would be a "big deal" to her if she saw a few of them blowing in the wind with some burning crosses outside her house. I live in Georgia. Those things have happened around here where I'm from.
Leylah Nude thats not an insult either. if you are smart enough you can tell that when they say "what are you", they are talking about race not you as a human, it is clearly not meant to be offensive. don't be so literal.
I think she was annoyed with that because a lot of people think that black people cant have nice long beautiful hair , so even if they do see someone who looks black and has some what natural looking hair, they assume you're mixed because of the negative connotations blacks have when it comes to hair.
Madison Owens oh ok, but they are still complimenting her so she should take it as a compliment. someone thinking that your not black and asking you what are you out of curiosity or being called light bright or mellow yellow is much better than being called nappy headed, burnt, crispy, spook and ugly which are all things that dark skinned fully black looking people get called sometimes.
The first girl needs some common sense slapped into her. I know this is old so I'll give her the benefit of the doubt but I really hope that she has changed her views and has fully accepted herself.
And isn't "Puerto Rican" a nationality of Puerto Rico?... It's not a race... People always mixing up "Nationality and Race"... We should understand the difference between the two. And educate ourselves before we speak...🤔 (Lady on panel of guests)
The audience member who said she is "slave Black" is beautiful and actually spot on. Light Skinned/Biracial/multiracial people face struggles but definitely not as much as dark skinned people face. Truly a sad society and mad world we live in...
GarageStudio your RIGHT but it's still messed up to be hateful toward lighter folk because of it, that's just another form of racism might seem great to be mixed but frfr your way more hated then folks know cause it comes from BOTH sides and that shit HURTS..... NOT dark enough to be black not white featured enough to be white
Thats not true. Experiences are just different. When you say someones experiences arent as hard as someone elses, it diminishes their experience and you start to play opression Olympics
I don't agree. Being ostracized from a community where black people derive their support & strength from is a lot harder. Black people have their community to fall back on, light skins don't. We are forced out and also pressured by racism while we're told we have it better because we are more accepted by racists? Any intelligent person wouldn't call this privilege, it's just y'all want to hold on to your victim card and hold it over light skins heads because you think we think like you if you were our color. Psychology destroys your argument. Stop projecting your hatred for yourself onto us.
@@nikibronson133 I'm biracial. I'm literally 50/50 black and white exactly.. took a genealogy test. In my experience do I feel like I belong to the black community? No. All biracials experiences aren't the same, so I only speak for myself. I don't belong to either black or white community because I've never been able to derive support for my struggles from either side. So no I don't claim to be black. In fact, police officers don't even profile me as black, they always put "other" for race on my ticket$ lol. So I can't ever say I'm black, or white so I just say the truth: I am biracial. Periodeded!
I'm genuinely shocked that the first girl sees nothing wrong with the Confederate flag and cutting up pant legs to make a KKK hood. THAT was the most shocking. Anyway Tyra did a great job with this show. It was all about facing the good, bad and the ugly of racism and stereotypes. In the end, we all have a connection. This is an amazing episode.
How are you "latina and white", when latina is already usually at least part white? I mean, latin americans can be native americans(as in the continent, not the country), black, white and/or mixed. The "latina" they refer to in the USA is usually part white, part native, so she should probably say "white and native", not "latina and white", or basically just say "latina", which also refers to part white, part native. That "part latin, part white" inscription is hurting both my eyes and my brains right now. Leave it to US people to not understand shit about latin America.
I get your frustration...as a pale skinned, blonde, gray-eyed Latina it's annoying when people look at me and go like "WOAH, you don't look Latina at all...more like Russian". It's so frustrating, since most of my Latin friends are really pale skinned and look like regular White Americans or European.
Nobody takes your guys weird classifications seriously except YOU GUYS. White people don't consider(most) Spanish speakers white. Unless they literally look white. Having brown eyes and brown hair and calling yourself white doesn't mean anyone else accepts this. Why? Because if an African American and a white person have a child that child is black, but if that biracial person has a child with a white person and it comes out with blue eyes and blonde hair the white community can't go around calling that child white. Which is why they don't want to classify white looking Spanish speakers as white on principle because then they'd have to start letting people with half black parents call themselves white as well. Welcome to white supremacy, hun.
I mean I don't deny there's different races and ethnicities but I agree we are one species and it's stupid to judge people based on physical features like skin color
I'm African-American and Caucasian and I accept both sides of myself.....although I do sort of understand the girl who was African-American and Puerto Rican and she accepted her African American side because she didn't know her dad and same for me.....but as I started to get older I accepted my Caucasian side as well.
Malaika Nichelle yes I know that that's why I said there's a lot of white Mexicans. Most Mexicans are white and indigenous. Just like most Dominicans and Puerto Ricans are black
Paulo Jorge Cruz Almeida that's not true at all. Yeah a lot of them are but to say that all white Mexicans are of Iberian descent isn't true. They weren't the only white people to come to Latin America. Also you're wrong about Latino since it's actually just someone from Latin America. Right about it not being a race tho.
ikr! i hate that. white people say i dont talk black, black people say i act too white. like seriously?! i can't be me? i must either adopt a european facade or talk in african american ebonics or "the ghetto speak"? it's so annoying i swear
Preach...I love being black..but since I choose to try n connect to all races...pppl think im ashamed to be black...like wth..its like the black eyed peas said if u only have love for ur own race then you only leave spacr to discriminate
I live in the south, and I've had people come up to me to tell me that they love that my hair is so curly, only to take it back and tell me to straighten my hair when they find out I'm Jewish. Three different people in Walmart yesterday actually told me that I'd go to hell for "deceiving" people with my looks. I broke my nose when I was 12, and my hair is blond because I'm 1/8 Sicilian and 1/8 Polish, and people get so offended by that here because I don't look Jewish enough for them somehow. I can only imagine what this last girl has to go through in order to hide that she's Muslim. I can't believe in this day and age that people get so caught up on appearances and stereotypes.
Peter Eli My grandparents retired down here because they like fishing and there are a lot of lakes. I came down with them because they actually had a decent school system.
Aww, thanks for posting this! It was a Great show! I love tyra and love how she loves unity and wants people to be united, not divided! Bless her! She's The Best! An inspiration! :)
Although these women identify themselves as African-American, it's a stretch for them to say "100 percent African-American". It's obvious that all of these women have some European, possibly Native-American ancestry, even if they don't identify with it.
I think you are the one that is confused. African-Americans are mixed. The majority have more black by percentage but the vast majority are mixed. So yes you can be 100% African-American and mixed because African-American is an ethnicity not a race.
Sorry not sorry but I couldn't help but to think of Shrek when I see Jenna, she looks just like him. don't come for me because y'all know it's true lol
30:21 TYRA: "I'M SO SORRY FOR THAT...BUT THE GREAT THING IS, IT'S NOT ALWAYS GOING TO BE THAT WAY." FAST FORWARD TO 2018....SORRY TYRA, SHIT'S GOTTEN WORSE.
I can totally relate. I've had people swear up & down that I'm Hispanic, Mexican, Latino...whatever but, I'm not. I'm half Native American & half white. And it is contempt for me for them to be like, 'no you're not' when I tell them my ethnicity. I also get a lot of stares...like people trying to figure me out. Like, just ask me what I am & I will be more than happy to tell you my ethnicity.
But where I live, when people ask me "What are you?" means what is my race. What are you mixed with. If they aren't talking about my race then they will be quick to correct me. If ethnicity doesn't mean much to some people, then why aren't we all the same color? We are all different & we all come from different backgrounds.
I know youre trying to be civil and friendly but using "what are you" as a first question to get to know you I think is rude. If theyre really respectful and like you that much they should want to get to know you as a person
I'm black and white . Not mariah carey mixed more like Lenny Kravits mixed. But the first girl ... I want a DNA test done. I don't think she is mixed .. at all
@@dereka.b.8136 I'm just saying you said you need a DNA test for someone who doesn't look black as if mixed people aren't in all shades shape and sizes and colors.
Does anyone else find this really sad? Surely we should love who we are, regardless of what the colour of our skin is or where we come from. It's sad to see people who are so judgemental towards others. We are all still human at the end of the day.
I'm light as hell (black) and I still couldn't pass for white if I wanted to, which I don't. Self hate is real! I love who I am and thank God that my parents taught me to be proud of who I am!
I think when Jenna said she’d like to be viewed as white because they have a higher standard, I think she was referring to “white privilege”. Or simply given the benefit of the doubt.
Generic TM can YOU READ? I am part west African and part Central African. They are not the same type of people!!! Are you stupid? Why not just say we are 100% human so no one is mixed.
Awe Tyra, I miss her show & her sense of humor. They don't make shows like this anymore. I was a young teen when this aired and it's so nostalgic to watch at 27.
Sorry to burst your bubble people, but if those light skin girls do a DNA test i'm pretty sure they'd have white in their ancestry at some point in time...just because your momma and daddy are both black(one is always lighter) doesn't mean their lineage wasn't mixed. A lot of african americans don't even have a complete family tree so stop confusing yourselves. We are all human but we need to argue smarter and not stupid when it's so obvious.
All African American People have white people in their family but there are Nigerian people who are the color of the girls on stage and are 100% Nigerian
also, a lot of koreans seem to just assume that black people are ugly. i find this offensive because i grew up in a multicultural country where there are a lot of asians, white people and darker-skinned people, whether theyre maori/other islanders, african or phillipino (which is actually asian) or whatever else. ive had a lot of dark-skinned friends before, and most of my high school friends are "new zealand black" (from the islands). i think my friends are very pretty and a lot are actually better at studying etc than me (i have major procrastination issues lol), despite our stereotypes, since im asian. so when people say something negative about "black" people, i get offended as if i were black because ive always been surrounded by people who look black, and a lot of who are my closest friends.
@Jermaralovesbeauty 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Lol! I can't! I thought she looked familiar despite that I didn't know her. Now I get it, I've been seeing her on Arthur since I was a kid!
Aniya Santiago I know right. Every puerto rican i know loves to fix them selves up even if we are going to school. The girls love make-up, heels, dresses, blouses, skirts etc. The boys i have date that were PR and loved dress shoes, ties, and vest. But they know how to dress street too. I swear i hate stereotypes of any race.
Yes they do and they see mixed people as mixed in Africa. Not black so sorry to break your fantasy. Diversity doesn’t meen everyone’s black honey. Those women would be mixed in Africa the end!
I'm black/African American/whatever you wanna call it and sometimes people call me "blasian" or "chinegro" or "japanegro" and I don't like it. I'm not even part Asian and I've been called that by some Asian people at my school. My own sister even calls me that. Whenever she sees an old Asian man on TV she says "there goes your grandpa" WTF? Also, why didn't that blonde black lady that was on the show at the beginning say anything?
I think its hard for someone from outside of the US to understand such discussions. Im from germany and frankly, Im sitting here with my mouth dropped and thinking "what the actual hell is going on there?" In germany I was told and teached that there is no race, because such ideas breed racism. All people are people, nothing more. I would be delighted if someone from the US can help me with that matter, because im really struggling to understand why there are so many discussions about race and racism in the US.
In America it's pretty much a melting pot. But the thing is America was built off of black enslavement and their enslavement was justified by dehumanizing us. So there has been a struggle with the majority being white people accepting blacks into society. And then Asians Latinos started to come over and because a lot of immigrants were often poorer than the majority white bad connotations came and that's basically why race is a topic and or issue because we all aren't treated equal. More recently with islamophobia after the attack on the twin towers as a majority Christian country we can't fathom Christians as being terrorists because that would mean we have the possibility of being terrorists. So it's just easier to blame something that is different of less than which would be darker complected non Christians and hate them because they pose a threat. I am a black man I love all people and do not look down on any group or people I'm not xenophobic or islamophobic in any way
Got it. But i don't understand why someone should use the term "us" when he speaks about race. Maybe its a cultural thing for inclusion and exclusion, but im not sure if its a wise move.
Yep I'm in Canada and although I can understand this better, some of it I find really strange. You really have to know the racial climate of the US to understand this fully, and understand why mixed race people there are in such a bind. The US is a very racial society and race is the number one identifying aspect there. Mixed people are literally forced to choose a race.
With the colorism in the black community, the solution is not for darker skinned and lighter skinned people to argue about it and tear down each other. All this division needs to stop.
I'm black and I took a short cut and lived in the UK for a year and was mistaken for everything else except black! so i relate! i was pakistani, hispanic, haitian, mixed black n white....crazy
I'm mixed White and Black African, I'm from the UK and get constantly mistaken for other races, Brazilian, Indian, Egyptian, Spanish...I fail to see how it's insulting or is anyway an issue unless you yourself have preconceived notions and negative stereotypes about other races?!
***** What part of my comment has lead you to the understanding that I was upset? You've successfully manage to confuse yourself. I'm not responsible for that love.
since when is mexican, dominican and puerto rican a race? And that mexican chick is white.Mexican is her nationality and white is her race, how hard is this to understand?
Peace Ninja so if Mexican and all of the above aren't a race what do you suggest they are? Like I get where you're coming from but what race should they identify themselves with?
***** Those would be nationalities, country of origin or birth. As for race, most of Latin America is composed of natives, whites, some pure some mixed (mestizos). There are other races as well such as blacks and oriental Asians (Mongoloids) but they're a rare minority. They should identify as what they LOOK the most since race is based on physical appearance. This is why on government documents you will see under the "Select Race" options it lists: -Caucasian (White) -African American (Black) -American Indian or Alaskan -Asian or Pacific Islander -Other Sometimes they may have something like "Select Race and/or Ethnicity", in which they may include Hispanic or Latino on the list. But from what I've seen, a lot of non-governmental documents include both race and ethnic choices even when the instructions say "Select Race" as well as have (non-Hispanic) after White and Black options which I feel has contributed to the huge confusion people have between race vs ethnicity vs nationality. People shouldn't really be offended for misinterpreting their race. Mixed races are possible, one may show more than the other. And people especially shouldn't be offended with the huge confusion that I just mentioned above.
***** Dude you're going back to her ethnicity. Race is just the general physical appearance. Remember ethnicity is origin background . Basque, Galician are ethnicities. Portuguese is a nationality while Native American is both a race and an ethnicity. Keeping it general is key to identify someone's RACE. The reason race's simple general appearance check is for quick identification. When law enforcement uses witnesses to identify the race of a suspect, they do a general outlook because they don't have time to figure out if he or she came from Catalunya, or Andorra, or from the highest mountains in the Alps xD While there are some physical differences between whites in differing parts in Europe .. this is where sub-race comes in. But the general race is simply white.
Ms. Tyra is UNDERRATED! She tackled a lot of issues during her talk show period.

Facts
So one girl says she only claims her white side, and the whole audience flips. Another girl says she only claims her hispanic side, audience has no reaction.
Because its known white people dont claim you unless you are 100% white but hispanic means spanish speaking. Its not a race and neither is latino. Obviously whoever the other girl's parents was was a white Hispanic person and not an afro or black Hispanic person. All the terminologies in this video is so messed up
Also the first girl was plain racist but tyra tries to get her to see racism against white people as well
Because the black girl is physically black not claiming to be black it was shocking to them yet laughable
Damn i thought i was the only person that notice that smh

I love the Tyra show, but that darker-skinned young lady had a serious point, and I feel as though she was silenced. Lightskin privilege does exist, whether you claim/utilize it or not. I'm not saying that it means that women of a lighter complexion don't go through hard times too, but that doesnt' change the fact that when you are darker-skinned, you do tend to have a harder time in this world. It's sad, it's deplorable, and it needs to be stopped, but in order for it to change, we must first accept that it is a real problem.
im gonna be honest the only way to get people to care if dark skin black women are treated worse is to start looking good I see way too many dark skin women that are obese many wear synthetic weaves instead of real weaves ( real weaves are more expensive but if your gonna wear a weave you have to make sure it is the nice looking one not the synthetic shit dark skin black women love to wear) also wear sexier more trendy clothes.

I loved this episode of Tyra because it was a wake up call for people who often made assumptions about race. I am half black, half Latina and when I was a senior in high school, a substitute teacher in my ap Spanish class asked which students were Hispanic and when I raised my hand, she told me to put my hand down because I'm perceived as only black (although I claim both sides). Of course, that was only one bad experience, but her ignorance does not define my identity. I know what I am and so do the people I love, which is what matters.
I feel that! Like, I know what I am, dumbass, don't question me!
Steph Alston That substitute is a moron. Hispanic is a culture, not a color. If you were from the Dominican Republic (where they speak Spanish and a majority of people are multi-racial) you could be 100% Hispanic/Latina and also 100% black.. not that it's anyone's business.
Steph Alston wow. that teacher is completely ignorant as fuck

Feel so sorry for that first girl. She absolutely hates herself.... wow.

Why is Tyra so quick to invalidate dark skinned people whenever they talk about colorism on the show? I would think she'd be better than that. I'd figure she'd take it seriously, because it's a very serious issue in the black community, the way lighter skinned people are often treated better.
exactly, like the girls on the show mentioned the field/house thing. that mentality is still a huge problem.
Yeah this was a shit show if she was trying to truly be progressive. Definitely caught that.
Juana Torres no said it was her fault but if she was going to tackle this issue she should have both sides to this type of experience. The reason the first girl gravitates to her white side is because she is not visibly mixed. She literally says “if I was even lighter skin I would be higher” . Stop invalidating something that is very much valid and present.
She is being unbaised
@@tspopstar512 No, she's doing exactly what the dark skin girl is talking about...siding with the light skin girls by pretending colourism is not an issue therefore "treating" the lighter ones better by validating their point.
Bring back the Tyra Banks show #2016
Tina Dod #2017
#No
Lol
Tina Dod seriously. You can tell she wanted to dive deeper into certain topics concerning race in america that people were not ready to have in 2009... I would say that the early to Kay's were the Pinnacle of the "respectability" era as we know it. would love to see a revival
Yes I loved that show❤❤❤
Being biracial is beautiful, as well as being a 100% of a certain race.
+hellotychelle It's been researched by an Indian woman that being mixed race is better.
+Kelvin Carson Better? no but having more chromosomes & more variety within DNA? yes. educate yourself
Nekia Thornton what are you talking about?
You stated that being mixed race is better don't play dumb
Nekia Thornton I'm not playing dumb. And yes it according to this woman that did a study on it.
Tyra Banks has Nationality, Race and Ethinicity ALL TWISTED AROUND. Hispanic is NOT A RACE. It is an ethnicity. Puerto Rican, Dominican, Mexican are NATIONALITIES. There are many ethnicities in a race (Hispanic is in the white race), and many ethnicities and races in a Nationality (a Latina living and from Canada). GET IT RIGHT.
Gabriela Quevedo no one care for your correction 🙄
You're right. But Tyra isn't any different from anyone else. Race makes everything unnecessarily confusing. The only thing that should matter is nationality when it comes to counting population distinctions, maybe ethnicity. But race is ridiculous.
And you're wrong. Hispanic isn't an ethnicity. It's just a label to categorize the various ethnic groups in the Americas who speak Spanish as a result of colonization, slavery, loss of indigenous language & genetic pollution.
Yes, always remember Hispanics complaining 30 years ago in school that they couldn't pick a race on those forms, because Hispanic wasn't listed
Hispanic is also in the black race as well as there are afrolatinos
Gabriela Quevedo Thank you!!!!!!!!!! Gosh I was hoping someone would educated Tyra!
The Puerto Rican and black girl is obviously from newyork talking bout skinny jeans and sneaks lol
I thought that too.

I was sad when Jenna said inner city black people scare her and Christian said black women are on welfare. I'm from Baltimore City. I'm black. I don't live off of welfare. I have a college degree. I have a great job. I live on my own with no roommates or public assistance. My car is paid off. For anyone who may be thinking I'm an exception, I'm not. Most of my family is educated. Some of them millionaires. Very sad but whatever. We're all entitled to our opinions, however wrong they may be.
Jessica K preach gal.. i can relate coz my sisters for of them are so much accomplished and we the brothers in the home we work hard to catch up. Simply my sisters are role models i got in the world right now
Please.....teach..... me.....how......to.....be.....like....you :(
David Shepler im nothing special. Just like everybody else trying to make it.
+Jessica K I have the knowledge to be financially literate due to me listening to rich people's speeches and reading thier books but I am still financially underage to support myself. My parents have a house and they make horrible financial choices but this is where it gets ugly. They always ask how much money I have. One time I lied and I got in serious trouble so now I have to be honest. My paycheck I earn from work gets sucked from me because they can't pay what they owe because they make bad financial choices. I had to live in a hotel with them for 2 years because they couldn't pay for a house and they got evicted. Even in the hotel, my money was being sucked because they rented a hotel too high for them. There are effects to being financially illiterate. They could pay for one thing but can't pay for the other. Then they sacrifice something and that makes things worse because what they sacrifice is not the source of the problem. It's annoying being a dependent of dependent parents. They now want to start a business and they have gotten started but they are not taking any wisdom from other successful people who started from rock bottom. I can see them making bad financial choices even with thier business. I even try to tell them what I learned from the financially intelligent leaders but they tell me I'm wrong. So I sit back and watch them make thier own same mistakes but I am getting tired of being punished for thier bull
+David Shepler If you don't mind me asking, how old are you?
actually I think the dark skin girl has it harder than the light skin girl.... and I feel the pain of the dark skin girl
Light Skin girls have it hard as well no matter what you hear or think
No one is saying light skin girls have it hard, we're just saying the truth darker sinned girl have it harder
Dark skinned people definitely have it harder than light skinned. But because of that, some dark skinned people have a complex and bully light skinned people. It's a vicious cycle that needs to be broke.
No they don't!!!
Colorism affects both sides equally. Lights aren't white enough and dark skin women hate them as well and dark skin women don't farm like they belong anywhere as well
And I don't like the way that the three lighter Black women on the panel tried to discredit what Janell was trying to tell them. "The excitement that they feel for you is the contempt that they feel for us." Truer words were never spoken. I'm not saying that they didn't go through their share of struggles, but someone exclaiming about the paleness of someone's skin is not the same as having their entire (dark) complexion, and by extension, everyone who shares that complexion, being associated with ugliness.
4 years later and this remains true
@Miss reign True, and it's a shame.
People seem to be confusing race, ethnicity, and nationality. They're not the same.
Race, ethnicity, nationality and culture for that matter. lol
in 2008 race and ethnicity wasn’t the same as it is now. like the girl who’s black and Puerto rican is probably just afro latina
Race: where your ancestors generally came from and your skin color
Ethnicity: what country your ancestors are from
Nationality: where you were born
THANK YOU
I'm a Afro American, but I was badly burned at age 9. I was called burnt back by my own brothers and sisters as well as my peers. This has made me a strong person.
I'm so sorry
A rebel flag? Girl, you need to go to the library get a book on american history and read it because the ignorance is just too much. I can't.

Lol she really do though , your silly as hell for even noticing that ha hell naw
Them light girls are being silly. How is "your hair is so nice" and insult. It sounds like they were getting compliments.
Samuel115s ikr.
Samuel115s The "Your hair is so nice" isn't the insulting part...it's more of the "What are you?!" part like you're some alien.
Leylah Nude thats not an insult either. if you are smart enough you can tell that when they say "what are you", they are talking about race not you as a human, it is clearly not meant to be offensive. don't be so literal.
I think she was annoyed with that because a lot of people think that black people cant have nice long beautiful hair , so even if they do see someone who looks black and has some what natural looking hair, they assume you're mixed because of the negative connotations blacks have when it comes to hair.
Madison Owens oh ok, but they are still complimenting her so she should take it as a compliment. someone thinking that your not black and asking you what are you out of curiosity or being called light bright or mellow yellow is much better than being called nappy headed, burnt, crispy, spook and ugly which are all things that dark skinned fully black looking people get called sometimes.

A lot of peo toucans are in denial about being black too.
@@smiller4606 True
And isn't "Puerto Rican" a nationality of Puerto Rico?... It's not a race... People always mixing up "Nationality and Race"... We should understand the difference between the two.
And educate ourselves before we speak...🤔 (Lady on panel of guests)
And alot of them are not also so....
Yea but its a mixed race island so most may appear black but genetically only have more European DNA
The audience member who said she is "slave Black" is beautiful and actually spot on. Light Skinned/Biracial/multiracial people face struggles but definitely not as much as dark skinned people face. Truly a sad society and mad world we live in...
GarageStudio your RIGHT but it's still messed up to be hateful toward lighter folk because of it, that's just another form of racism might seem great to be mixed but frfr your way more hated then folks know cause it comes from BOTH sides and that shit HURTS..... NOT dark enough to be black not white featured enough to be white
Thats not true. Experiences are just different. When you say someones experiences arent as hard as someone elses, it diminishes their experience and you start to play opression Olympics
I don't agree. Being ostracized from a community where black people derive their support & strength from is a lot harder. Black people have their community to fall back on, light skins don't. We are forced out and also pressured by racism while we're told we have it better because we are more accepted by racists? Any intelligent person wouldn't call this privilege, it's just y'all want to hold on to your victim card and hold it over light skins heads because you think we think like you if you were our color. Psychology destroys your argument. Stop projecting your hatred for yourself onto us.
@@onexonesie you know light skin, and biracial people are black right... I get your sentiments but I just want to make that clarification
@@nikibronson133 I'm biracial. I'm literally 50/50 black and white exactly.. took a genealogy test. In my experience do I feel like I belong to the black community? No. All biracials experiences aren't the same, so I only speak for myself. I don't belong to either black or white community because I've never been able to derive support for my struggles from either side. So no I don't claim to be black. In fact, police officers don't even profile me as black, they always put "other" for race on my ticket$ lol. So I can't ever say I'm black, or white so I just say the truth: I am biracial. Periodeded!

Its annoying when many people see an asian and think "chinese", or sometimes "japanese", it's never korean, thai, hmong, or vietnamese.
Hey, I guessed Vietnamese for the first Asian lady. Turned out she wasn't. lol
EricaYE6 Lol, at least you gave it some thought. Because I swear people forever calling every Asian they see Chinese.
The last time I met an Asian, I knew he was from Bangladesh
Dude, it's all Asian.......
Or malayasian
I'm genuinely shocked that the first girl sees nothing wrong with the Confederate flag and cutting up pant legs to make a KKK hood. THAT was the most shocking.
Anyway Tyra did a great job with this show. It was all about facing the good, bad and the ugly of racism and stereotypes. In the end, we all have a connection. This is an amazing episode.
As a black woman I enjoy seeing all of the beautiful shades we come in from the darkest to the lightest
How are you "latina and white", when latina is already usually at least part white? I mean, latin americans can be native americans(as in the continent, not the country), black, white and/or mixed. The "latina" they refer to in the USA is usually part white, part native, so she should probably say "white and native", not "latina and white", or basically just say "latina", which also refers to part white, part native. That "part latin, part white" inscription is hurting both my eyes and my brains right now. Leave it to US people to not understand shit about latin America.
Ive been trying to understand why they think latina are a rce, because you have black latinas
Kadine Lindsay because they suck at history, biology and geography...
I get your frustration...as a pale skinned, blonde, gray-eyed Latina it's annoying when people look at me and go like "WOAH, you don't look Latina at all...more like Russian". It's so frustrating, since most of my Latin friends are really pale skinned and look like regular White Americans or European.
True, latin is a mixture of native and white spanish portugese, or native white and african like in brasil, puerto rico, Cuba etc
Nobody takes your guys weird classifications seriously except YOU GUYS. White people don't consider(most) Spanish speakers white. Unless they literally look white. Having brown eyes and brown hair and calling yourself white doesn't mean anyone else accepts this. Why? Because if an African American and a white person have a child that child is black, but if that biracial person has a child with a white person and it comes out with blue eyes and blonde hair the white community can't go around calling that child white. Which is why they don't want to classify white looking Spanish speakers as white on principle because then they'd have to start letting people with half black parents call themselves white as well. Welcome to white supremacy, hun.
wow they all look human to me.......
Theresa Kjær Wish the whole world had the same logic as you :)
amen my friend you are so right. There is ONLY ONE race and that's the human race.. God bless
^ finally! Every time I say that people look at me funny.
Aniya Santiago there are different ethnicity but only 1 race, the human race
I mean I don't deny there's different races and ethnicities but I agree we are one species and it's stupid to judge people based on physical features like skin color
I'm African-American and Caucasian and I accept both sides of myself.....although I do sort of understand the girl who was African-American and Puerto Rican and she accepted her African American side because she didn't know her dad and same for me.....but as I started to get older I accepted my Caucasian side as well.
The mexican girl is white, she's a white woman from mexico
There are a lot of white mexicans
Malaika Nichelle yes I know that that's why I said there's a lot of white Mexicans. Most Mexicans are white and indigenous. Just like most Dominicans and Puerto Ricans are black
Exactly
Paulo Jorge Cruz Almeida that's not true at all. Yeah a lot of them are but to say that all white Mexicans are of Iberian descent isn't true. They weren't the only white people to come to Latin America. Also you're wrong about Latino since it's actually just someone from Latin America. Right about it not being a race tho.
Paulo Jorge Cruz Almeida it's so funny when white latinos think they're they're only spanish/portuguese and then find out they're not
Tyra’s show was so underrated. I always loved how she tackled uncomfortable issues and made people address their hypocrisies and prejudices. ❤️

You know what it means 😏
I live in the south, and I've had people come up to me to tell me that they love that my hair is so curly, only to take it back and tell me to straighten my hair when they find out I'm Jewish. Three different people in Walmart yesterday actually told me that I'd go to hell for "deceiving" people with my looks. I broke my nose when I was 12, and my hair is blond because I'm 1/8 Sicilian and 1/8 Polish, and people get so offended by that here because I don't look Jewish enough for them somehow. I can only imagine what this last girl has to go through in order to hide that she's Muslim. I can't believe in this day and age that people get so caught up on appearances and stereotypes.

Aww, thanks for posting this! It was a Great show! I love tyra and love how she loves unity and wants people to be united, not divided! Bless her! She's The Best! An inspiration! :)
Although these women identify themselves as African-American, it's a stretch for them to say "100 percent African-American". It's obvious that all of these women have some European, possibly Native-American ancestry, even if they don't identify with it.
I think you are the one that is confused. African-Americans are mixed. The majority have more black by percentage but the vast majority are mixed. So yes you can be 100% African-American and mixed because African-American is an ethnicity not a race.

I knew who would be the most RIDICULOUS... without completely hearing the beginning the show!!! It’s always us making a fool out of ourselves!!!
I can totally relate. I've had people swear up & down that I'm Hispanic, Mexican, Latino...whatever but, I'm not. I'm half Native American & half white. And it is contempt for me for them to be like, 'no you're not' when I tell them my ethnicity. I also get a lot of stares...like people trying to figure me out. Like, just ask me what I am & I will be more than happy to tell you my ethnicity.
the thing is that most hispanics are part spanish/white and americaindian which is why we look like you and you look like us.
what?
But where I live, when people ask me "What are you?" means what is my race. What are you mixed with. If they aren't talking about my race then they will be quick to correct me.
If ethnicity doesn't mean much to some people, then why aren't we all the same color? We are all different & we all come from different backgrounds.
So?
I know youre trying to be civil and friendly but using "what are you" as a first question to get to know you I think is rude. If theyre really respectful and like you that much they should want to get to know you as a person
What about the fourth girl from the beginning? They never showed her or said what her race was/why she hates it
Light skinned privilege exists PERIODTTT. I don’t like how Tyra seemed more in favor of the lighter women

I'm light as hell (black) and I still couldn't pass for white if I wanted to, which I don't. Self hate is real! I love who I am and thank God that my parents taught me to be proud of who I am!
This was a good awakening. The should be done on television every year. Everybody should show much more of this and really look at this
I think when Jenna said she’d like to be viewed as white because they have a higher standard, I think she was referring to “white privilege”. Or simply given the benefit of the doubt.

Awe Tyra, I miss her show & her sense of humor. They don't make shows like this anymore. I was a young teen when this aired and it's so nostalgic to watch at 27.
Sorry to burst your bubble people, but if those light skin girls do a DNA test i'm pretty sure they'd have white in their ancestry at some point in time...just because your momma and daddy are both black(one is always lighter) doesn't mean their lineage wasn't mixed. A lot of african americans don't even have a complete family tree so stop confusing yourselves. We are all human but we need to argue smarter and not stupid when it's so obvious.

Right Im Creole n people can't tell
also, a lot of koreans seem to just assume that black people are ugly. i find this offensive because i grew up in a multicultural country where there are a lot of asians, white people and darker-skinned people, whether theyre maori/other islanders, african or phillipino (which is actually asian) or whatever else. ive had a lot of dark-skinned friends before, and most of my high school friends are "new zealand black" (from the islands). i think my friends are very pretty and a lot are actually better at studying etc than me (i have major procrastination issues lol), despite our stereotypes, since im asian. so when people say something negative about "black" people, i get offended as if i were black because ive always been surrounded by people who look black, and a lot of who are my closest friends.

I'm black/African American/whatever you wanna call it and sometimes people call me "blasian" or "chinegro" or "japanegro" and I don't like it. I'm not even part Asian and I've been called that by some Asian people at my school. My own sister even calls me that. Whenever she sees an old Asian man on TV she says "there goes your grandpa" WTF?
Also, why didn't that blonde black lady that was on the show at the beginning say anything?
I think its hard for someone from outside of the US to understand such discussions. Im from germany and frankly, Im sitting here with my mouth dropped and thinking "what the actual hell is going on there?" In germany I was told and teached that there is no race, because such ideas breed racism. All people are people, nothing more. I would be delighted if someone from the US can help me with that matter, because im really struggling to understand why there are so many discussions about race and racism in the US.
In America it's pretty much a melting pot. But the thing is America was built off of black enslavement and their enslavement was justified by dehumanizing us. So there has been a struggle with the majority being white people accepting blacks into society. And then Asians Latinos started to come over and because a lot of immigrants were often poorer than the majority white bad connotations came and that's basically why race is a topic and or issue because we all aren't treated equal. More recently with islamophobia after the attack on the twin towers as a majority Christian country we can't fathom Christians as being terrorists because that would mean we have the possibility of being terrorists. So it's just easier to blame something that is different of less than which would be darker complected non Christians and hate them because they pose a threat. I am a black man I love all people and do not look down on any group or people I'm not xenophobic or islamophobic in any way
Got it. But i don't understand why someone should use the term "us" when he speaks about race. Maybe its a cultural thing for inclusion and exclusion, but im not sure if its a wise move.
+Remiel Elohim definitely not a wise move but when you're ignorant it makes being victimized easier
It's really sad, but thank you for helping me :)
Yep I'm in Canada and although I can understand this better, some of it I find really strange. You really have to know the racial climate of the US to understand this fully, and understand why mixed race people there are in such a bind. The US is a very racial society and race is the number one identifying aspect there. Mixed people are literally forced to choose a race.
tyra really gaslighted that issue of colorism ngl

With the colorism in the black community, the solution is not for darker skinned and lighter skinned people to argue about it and tear down each other. All this division needs to stop.
TYRA with the bleach blond straight hair...priceless. Cause she knows light skinned is advantaged.
I saw a pic of Tyra as a child, very dark skin, brown eyes, Afro hair and very broad nose. She's hosting the wrong show
No she wasnt tyra has always been light skin with light eyes..ive also seen childhood pics
CerebralMadness google a picture of when she was 11 then you can see.... browny/green eyes, afro hair, broad nose and darker skin, much darker
And…what do you look like?
Todd Wiggins what relevance does that have on anything????
Tyra needs to have her own show again.
they were tight skinny jeans with sneakers don't we all 😐
Hell naw 😂😂
Skinny jeans with the long for Jordans ?!!
Lmaoooo Tyra stay asking what their nationality is while the ladies respond in race 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂
A Guyanese 🇬🇾 was here thumbs up
Tyra doesn't know what 'nationality' means.
Tyra needs to bring more shows like this!
I'm proud to be puertorican, it's a beautiful country and every country is beautiful.
Lmfao Jenna girl! I’m biracial black and Polynesian and I’ll look crazy as hell going around calling myself white when I have like 5% European blood
I am puerto rican. Native, black, and white! I am latino and identify as multi racial. And i am proud of every part of me!
Italians are white...
NOT ALL
TributesAndUnique not all. Especially not my family.
@@MelodyXpierce most are
So are most Latin people.
@@MelodyXpierce Actual Italians
I'm black and I took a short cut and lived in the UK for a year and was mistaken for everything else except black! so i relate! i was pakistani, hispanic, haitian, mixed black n white....crazy
I'm mixed White and Black African, I'm from the UK and get constantly mistaken for other races, Brazilian, Indian, Egyptian, Spanish...I fail to see how it's insulting or is anyway an issue unless you yourself have preconceived notions and negative stereotypes about other races?!
***** What part of my comment has lead you to the understanding that I was upset? You've successfully manage to confuse yourself. I'm not responsible for that love.
Juelz_a Clearly you are have misplaced your comment. Definitely nothing is relevant from my response.
Maybe you have a recent non black relative or heavy generational mixing in the family. I have friends like that
Your mixed
since when is mexican, dominican and puerto rican a race? And that mexican chick is white.Mexican is her nationality and white is her race, how hard is this to understand?
Peace Ninja so if Mexican and all of the above aren't a race what do you suggest they are? Like I get where you're coming from but what race should they identify themselves with?
***** Those would be nationalities, country of origin or birth. As for race, most of Latin America is composed of natives, whites, some pure some mixed (mestizos). There are other races as well such as blacks and oriental Asians (Mongoloids) but they're a rare minority. They should identify as what they LOOK the most since race is based on physical appearance. This is why on government documents you will see under the "Select Race" options it lists:
-Caucasian (White)
-African American (Black)
-American Indian or Alaskan
-Asian or Pacific Islander
-Other
Sometimes they may have something like "Select Race and/or Ethnicity", in which they may include Hispanic or Latino on the list.
But from what I've seen, a lot of non-governmental documents include both race and ethnic choices even when the instructions say "Select Race" as well as have (non-Hispanic) after White and Black options which I feel has contributed to the huge confusion people have between race vs ethnicity vs nationality.
People shouldn't really be offended for misinterpreting their race. Mixed races are possible, one may show more than the other. And people especially shouldn't be offended with the huge confusion that I just mentioned above.
Exactly
***** Okay then, apart from calling her what she actually is and looks like, you know, how it should be, what would you call her?
***** Dude you're going back to her ethnicity. Race is just the general physical appearance. Remember ethnicity is origin background . Basque, Galician are ethnicities. Portuguese is a nationality while Native American is both a race and an ethnicity.
Keeping it general is key to identify someone's RACE. The reason race's simple general appearance check is for quick identification. When law enforcement uses witnesses to identify the race of a suspect, they do a general outlook because they don't have time to figure out if he or she came from Catalunya, or Andorra, or from the highest mountains in the Alps xD
While there are some physical differences between whites in differing parts in Europe .. this is where sub-race comes in. But the general race is simply white.
Is there a clip with the fourth girl on the right in the beginning... they skipped over her
the darskin girl in the audience was spittin.
