Another View - Interracial Marriage

- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Be honest - when you see an interracial couple do you frown with disdain, or think, "ain't love grand?". The reactions of others is just one of the issues facing those in interracial relationships. On the next Another View, we'll talk with Greta and Jerry Gary, and Danae Aicher, all in interracial marriages, and all who candidly share their experiences. And, when is a music program not just a music program? When it's called Soundscape!
the black woman is so eloquent. i love it. she's honest too. no sugarcoating.
This is so well done. The interviewer, the responses. Lovely. Thank you.
My family has been mixed since the early 1900's. My paternal grandfather had married a mixed race woman, she was mixed with Iroqious Native Americans and AA from near the Canadian border. My father was born in 1931 and my mother was born in 1933 as a immigrant from Jamaica. I showed up in 1957 and had 20 years in the military, the 6th of 7 consecutive generations in uniform. I have 3 mixed children, 8 grandchildren and one ex wife. My oldest son adopted a a beautiful young lady with dark blonde hair. In my interviews with the girls she and her equally beautiful, velvety brown sisters. these girls just don't care about a person's color they care about character and completely dismiss race. This is the future. My 2nd oldest granddaughter is dating a little brown boy with a Filipino mother. Our family is how America looks.
What a wonderful couple, Jerry and Greta. I wish them both a long and blessed life.
I thoroughly appreciate your interview, questions were honest but appropriate. In a perfect world, color shouldn’t matter. I’m an American born mexican woman taught to stay within my culture but my marriage to a Mexican man didn’t survive. I researched my ancestry and found that my family has African and European ancestry. I’m happy that these racial attitudes are continually changing in America and around the world. God has blessed us with the ability to love one another.
Love IS love regardless of skin color:)
Love is love and it is something of a mystery sometimes. God bless their marriages.
Jerry Gary... THAT'S THE BEST NAME EVER
his parents win at life hands down
Chrissy B. LOL😂
I feel like people only touch on interracial relationships that is about Caucasian and African American. its always the biggest deal. what about Caucasian and Chinese or African American and Mexican what about India and Porto Rican. those are interracial relationships as well. I'm sure you have Chinese people that disapprove of their son or daughter dating someone who is Caucasian or Mexican, they don't like it either, its not only a debate that should only be talked about between black and white.
What you said is how you know its something suspect about it all
Agreed
😂😂😂 Other Races Dont Matter Fufu,😂 People have a Problem with it Because White Hates Black And Blacks Hate White PERIOD. LOLLLL Have you Ever Read A REAL BLACK History Book Before???????? My Husband is A Black Man That treats Me like A Queen🏆 It Does Something for The Culture, You know... Examples, Its About Setting Examples For the Race also the Children. It Also Looks 100xs Better. Growing up I would Always Hear my Father tell my 2 brothers including Myself Not to Bring An White person Into The Family Because you Would Pitty His and Our Worth As A Race.
You're right.
Obviously, someone never heard of 'South Pacific' or 'West Side Story'.
the HOST 1000 times lovable i swear to GOD highly professional.....
That black woman don't want her son to bring home a white woman. Talk about being a hypocrite.
Not what she said. She doesn't want him putting white women on a pedestal as if they are the only women worthy of dating.
@@khalilwhispers2218 If he likes white women then so be it; the parent can't legislate that. Noticed she didn't mention anything about dating black women, exclusively.
@@IamOne153340 Why would she? Black women are viewed as the least desirable group in America. An affinity for Black women means he had not bought into the "White women are the epitome of feminity" nonsense. Sadly, many men can't show an appreciation for white women without denigrating black women. Not necessary.
I Loved This Interview. Keep Up The Great Work & The Comments Also.💕👍💕👍
Honestly I find interracial marriages as sweet. I like people with different colours being a couple. I hope I will get one too someday
Bedwench
I'm telling this story to anybody who finds true love, don't let it slip because you may not get another chance and it will torment you for the rest of your life. When I look back on it, I realized I had a good woman. one of the few white girls from the south that wasn't racist. Whose family welcomed me with open arms at Thanksgiving. Whose ancestors help rescue & free slaves. I was black and she was white but she didn't care! She accepted me for who I was!
I have been married for almost 15 years to a beautiful black woman and we have 2 sons. Love is color blind and I am of Mexican descent.
I once met this white girl in Texas a few years back and Damn she was fine! She looked like cross between Linda Blair (In the 80s) and Anna Paquin. She had it all-Pretty face, great body, nice legs, pretty feet, great personality, multi-talented, a gifted singer and a good cook. We dated for 19 months and she was good to me. she even wanted marry me and have my kids but I wasn't ready to make that commitment and I blew it. She got on that plane to San Francisco and never looked back.
The last time I saw her, she at the airport ready to start her new job in San Francisco, we had a string of arguments before then about whether or not I was ready to marry her. Minutes before she boarded the plane, she asked me "Do you love me?" and I said " Yes" and then she said "Then marry me. Live a life with me. Have children with me." But for some reason, I couldn't. Then she gives me one last kiss and places her hand on my cheek and says " I love you" and I never saw her again.
10:27 That's the central issue. A lot of these brothers aren't even wanted by most sisters. Then all of a sudden, when they find some other woman who does want them, it's somehow a problem with them.
I'm all for interracial dating/marriage. 😃
i was an army brat, too! i think growing up in that environment can easily defend against prejudicial inclinations that someone might otherwise be susceptible to.
My thing is why is it always a big deal for blacks and whites.. No one makes a big deal about Hispanics and blacks or Asians and whites dating... Love has no discriminations if its real love
I always feels like interracial couple is so sweet.
I was walking down the road, feeling in the mood to eat a hotdog. I walked down to the stand and saw an interracial couple. I got pissed ; They bought the last hot dog. I wasted my time.
I don't make a big deal out of interracial relationships as who the next person is with is SO NOT my business.
I am a WM who likes, dates, and would marry a BW so I study this a lot. People are getting used to it. It used to be so strange that they would look at an interracial couple and wonder where their partners were. WW and BM seem to think that everyone is supposed to be attracted to them primarily, because BW were the last to step outside their race, and they get confused when they see something different. It is improving.
Great interview, wish it were longer.
@sillykatz for some of us, in order to survive as a people, dating outside "your group" could lead to "your group" no longer existing. Granted this is extreme and very rare, but all the same should not be ignored.
I am an African American male who dated numerous non African American females during my single years. Color was never an issue, however being raised in a household with (BW) it was what I saw so that is what I married. I ask myself sometimes, What If? I have a daughter who looks bi-racial, most peolpe think one of her parents is caucasian, but we are not. As I see her getting older, I see life will be easier for her in many aspects. She has never had a problem, and I doubt she ever will.
Wow can't people love who they want to love, it's nobodys business but their own
Thank You! You read my mind! 🙄
I think isn't that beautiful I have always been amazed and in awe of interracial marriage's i think it's great and i dont see a problem with it
Me personally, I'm attracted to white women but, I love black women. I think the dark skin tone is sexy. I actually ended marrying a black woman. Some are kinda put off because I'm a heavy metal musician and have a nerdy streak.
It's no big deal to me, if you are happy with someone that is what matters. I'm an African American man and my wife is Italian. It's all about love not race.
Thanks I love myself too much to let ppl tell me how to live my life. How ppl react to how I live just tell em sometimes how real fucked up this world is that some people have to turn something so petty into a huge problem.
you know I feel bad for people that create barriers that werent there in the first place! Race has nothing to do with love at all and more ppl need to really understand that. Love has no color.
I am 20 I'm in college and one day I was talking to this girl and she randomly told me that she was tired on how her boyfriends female friends would try to exclude her from being with him and would flirt with him right in front of her like she's not there. I asked her why on earth would they want to do that to her and she said it was because they didn't like that she was white and that they always tried to beat her up. I've never been more pissed in my life some people just need to grow up.
my boyfriend is French (I live in France right now) and he is white and I am black, and when he saw this he thought "americans are really like this?"
Interracial marriage is awesome. I wouldn't be here today if it never existed. Being mixed coming from a diverse family and raised to love and enjoy being mixed having friends who were also like me is a great experience. I feel so lucky to have a mom who doesn't care who I bring home or the fact I tend to date latin/white guys. My issue with race is being told how to live by others. Like I should be black and calling myself mixed is wrong. It isn't right or fair.
Brilliant Interview. Thank you.
Many white females are kind and most are confident. They don't have much else over any other lady.
"Pure Breed Only?" Are we dogs & cats? lol I want to know what you mean by racial destruction. My mother is Nigerian & my father is creole (Black, Spanish, French, & Native American). I consider myself a mixed African-American. The girl I'm talking to is African-American & Latina. Color/race is the furthest thing from our minds. We both share similar interest & really like each other. Is that a problem??
lol...Even "pure breed" dogs were mixed into existence with a mixture of other dogs for certain traits at the "beginning" of their breed....most not too long ago.
In the case of the IR couple here (husband/wife), her White culture dominates their household and life. The fact that their kids prefer lighter skin and/or Whites in companionship and that their friends are mostly White means that he has folded on teaching his kids their other side and they prefer their White culture. In the case of the sister to the right, she seems to be the type who is married to a White man, but is still in tune with her Blackness, including what she said about her son.
I think its beautiful love goes beyond color
@1adnanbhatti Actually, according to the United States Census Bureau, there were 354,000 White female/Black male and 196,000 Black female/White male marriages in March 2009, representing a ratio of 181:100. This traditional disparity has steadily declined over the last two decades, having seen its peak in 1981 with a ratio of 371:100. In 2007, 4.6% of all married Blacks in the United States were wed to a White partner, and 0.4% of all Whites were married to a Black partner.
it goes to show interracial dating can and will last
I'm only attracted to latin/white guys because I've never met a black guy with the kind of standards I'm looking for. Maybe I expect too much. Honestly I'm not worried about who my children end up with as long as thier happy. Who I'm attracted to shouldn't even be your problem.
RunnyBabbit what standards are you looking for🤔
How things should be. People should be able to sit down free of anger & hatred & talk about things from different views if they wish to be informed properly. Love truly doesn't know color.
@zio5q No, she's saying that she doesn't want her son to have a mental problem. She wants him to not have a racial complex and be open to all races of women and look for love not a status symbol. I understood what she meant.
have always had a strong attraction towards black womens goin back to when I was in junior high school and still do to this day .would marry a black women in a heartbeat
@FrozenUtility
All religion do not speak against interracial dating!
best wishes from me u all interracial couples.
My parents used to get called the Oreo couple in Philli.. but they stuck it out!!
@GurlCaa I don't think that is true, Actually I noticed that biracial people usually date the race of their opposite gender parent. So if the guy's mom is white he will date white women, and if the biracial girl's dad is black then she will date black men. People usually want someone like their parents, because that's what they are used to.
They are all from the same race -- THE HUMAN RACE!!
I don't see anything wrong with interracial marriage. After all, Hod made man in his image, regardless of race.
im half asian and half white. its funny, because my preference in guys is usually those who are black. diversity is a beautiful thing.
number1lefty a lot of Asians are mostly into whites more than black, have you ever dated white people before?
@Volf99 - Maybe I should've been specific. I LIVE IN AMERICA. I DON'T LIVE ANYWHERE ELSE. ANYTHING I SAID WAS IN REFERENCE TO THAT!
i usually think "SWEET" everytime i see an interracial couple..
Coon Dogs(Hunting Dog's) is more than likely is what that festival was. I understand her perception but it's on a perception. People are stepping into another person's world you have to be open minded in life to be successful 🥰
Great job ... but there was one things that I did disagree with. Even though our country has a horrible past regarding the subject of racism, not ALL caucasians and/or african-americans have a deep-rooted issue with race. I was raised as a military brat and in our community and as I grew up into the woman I am today, I did not have any problem with race.
Really great show! Thanks!
that is soooo true!
Spoken like the beautiful woman you are.
you just granted me a responce
@Chrisbit1 ah ah yes! I am black french and to be honest racism exists in France but there are so many bi-racial couples that the majority of people don't event think it can be an issue!
the most progressive and open minded people are those who let people and themselves love who they love, no matter their race, religion, culture, or gender!
They think that way, while they're still young. When they get older, it's no more thoughts of "colors shouldn't matter". I'm talking about the way black people thinks. When they become 30 and older, it's all about black on black unity love. That is the males & females.
I feel like older people are the ones who discriminate against it the most.
THANK YOU!
His name is Jerry Gary... wow lol.
that's odd. My school was 10% black and they were rarely visible and unimportant. go figure.
This was great
I see now here in America we have begun to grow up
Very well said. Thank you for clearing that up.
this is very spiritual...but i thought being black or being chinese in japan was hard....but being mixed is going to be very hard...difficulties are going to be common for many of them growing up...if not all..
Love who you love I meant.
To me,it's no big deal.If they're not threatening me or my family,then what's the big deal?
nice... if you live in the states, move in canada, interatial relationship is very common!! My fiance is white!!
good luckk

This mother basically stated she wants her son to date all types of women, and not limit it to one race. If he ends up choosing to marry a white women, she'd accept it. But at least he'd have 'dated around'.
@kittybookitty thats really prejudice to state that the only white people that are racist are those below the Mason Dixon line and are the stereotypical "hillbilly". I'm from Chicago and trust me as a white person, I hear racist comments "up north" as well.
Color color why the hell should it matter ! If we weren't ment to mix then why did God put us all on the Same planet !
my best friend is biracial, Love her to pieces! she's the best!!:)
My first reaction is thats beautiful ! Nothing like being and feeling like a real human sharing life experiences ! You only live once so enjoy the ride cause worm food is what these black & white bodys will be whens its all over..... : )
Ultimately its not anyone's business...this is a given. but the subject comes up
William Branham preached against interracial marriage.
the internet should be a very progressive melting pot mixture, not just of race, but culture and art and history too..and international experience shared through technology..global wide, man
Standing Ovation for that statement. Color is nothing more than just a superficial biological trait. Now culture is what is important and even biculturalism is possible.
Love this!!♥️😊
@loulou5665 I am the same towards BW. One day I found myself more physically attracted to them. Also, Interracial couples are becoming more and more frequent. U.S. Census statistics for the divorce rate say that black woman / white man marriages are the lowest in divorces even compared to WM/WW marriages, while other interracial couplings have the higher divorce rates because of cultural differences. It also shows that WW get divorced more than anyone else, no matter who they are with.
..White People always want you to offer realistic solutions to problems they've caused.
And "most blacks already having white genes" has never spared one single black person from being either viewed or treated differently. So. I'm glad you're happy. I wish Happiness for all people. But I'm not persuaded to see anything oppositely from how I already do, where interracial relationships are concerned. Too much ongoing negativity & bias, to accept "that humankind" pitch. Thx for responding, Douglas
to you, race is a issue because you stated you only date latin/white guys. the black side, you're not attracted to that side. now if your mammy is black, i can understand. but if your pappy is black i don't think you would've made that statement,"I tend to date latin/white guys". if your offspring would think the way you think, the remaining of your families in the next 3 generation, all will return to the white race.
@misscamara12 she didn't say only black women she said both. and only because white is the dominant culture/ what is preferred, which you can tell shows with and hurts the black husband about his own kids.
Nice to meet you.... :)
@alexross8 A culture is DEVELOPED by people. It is made up of customs and objects that identify that culture without need for people to continue to create them. The Smithsonian is full of everything we have been as an American culture which includes hundreds of races and combines many cultures. People don't make up a culture, their artifacts, art, music, and customs do and continue to even for extinct cultures.
simply because eight people agree with you, you believe that gives your "reasoning" any sort of merit? and because they understood it, that makes it logical? i read your post a number of times and nowhere did you explain how their behaviors were derivative of their biracial backgrounds or choices in partner. what you (and those 8 people) don't understand is that MOST behavior is a product of one's environment which entails things like socioeconomic status and educational backgrounds of parents.
Real Talk
This beat sounds phat.No big deal.
@afrocentralcity I guess we can say the same for black men too, who are crazy over white women and chase them! u see thats not a fair comment you make, because black woman look for a good black man, and in the process she gets disappointed because none are available for her, and another option becomes available. Love is love, thats it! You cannot control who u love!
I forgot to finish even it there was something like that in the bible who cares people will date whoever they want to. Who are you to judge someone because they choose to date another race. How would you feel about me? I am with someone that is of mixed race.
My father preferred white women but hated it if black women preferred white men.
I think if you fall in love with anyone :)
As of the census in 2008 it was recorded of all the interracial marriages in the United States that BW and WM marriages have an over 40 percent lower rate of divorce within ten years than any other and you are a troll. Troll = someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
PREEECHHHHHH!!!!!!!
