      She loved you, not your race. Additionally, women do not like men who engage in victim-mentality (ergo Democrats). Racism may have existed, but men as victims is a non-starter.

      You sure aint lying. I told a classmate at Wilberforce once when asked what I was doing this weekend. I said I was going to a celebration at the Carter G Woodson center. The fine young lad then asked me....who that is? I then asked him, how did you even get into this school? I was being a smart ass but my point was understood. I can only hope 36 years later that young lad has changed his blackness and is listening to Karen and her crew but lord have mercy, it can actually be a broken wish.

      This is trash. Yes it sounds silly to compare apples to oranges, however, nooooo body is asking why she was recording their phone call in the first place. Private phone call mind you. Why would you do that unless you planned on using it for something. What did she have in mind when she decided to record it? Nobody finds that to be suspicious behavior? Or it's just me right?! Okay!!! Like I said, dumpster fire....

    I love his explanation of his experience with his former partner. As a black woman , who has seen so many BM with other races of women, I wonder if there’s some trauma there. I don’t doubt that there’s some internalized pain there. He is so right about Black people are the most brainwashed; we had to be because it was the only way we were going to survive. We are descendants of captive people who were broken in so many ways. Interracial relationships don’t bother me when I remember that. It bothers me when these very men hate and harm BW for not choosing them. Much love to you Orlando, may you find the love you deserve_ no matter her color

      “Racism (global white supremacy) is the local and global power system dynamic, structured and maintained by those who classify themselves as white; whether consciously or subconsciously determined; this system consists of patterns of perception, logic, symbol formation, thought, speech, action and emotional response, as conducted simultaneously in all areas of people activity: economics, education, entertainment, labor, law, politics, religion, sex, and war. The ultimate purpose of the system is to ensure white genetic survival and to prevent white genetic annihilation on Earth - a planet in which the overwhelming majority of people are classified as non-white, (black, brown, red, and yellow) by white skinned people. All of the non-white people are genetically dominant (in terms of skin coloration) compared to the genetic recessive white skinned people.”

When I first met them months before the wedding, They never had a problem with their daughter marrying a black male. My husband was not feeling the idea. But I saw how close they were. Now 13, My grandaughter identifies as Black. She wears her hair very curly with all of the black beauty products. She doesn't really look white. She is golden, she does not like the word mixed. She says she is black.

A man and his opinion of other men has captured out attention while Kings and Queens like this are left with fewer views than a gossip funny boy and who he hates.

      Silly comedians' (Katt Williams) interview was powerful and eye-opening. Just as Orlando's video is powerful. You have two individuals with similar stories. Expressed differently but told truthfully. Katt Williams was s..t on by folks who look like him. Yet, these same individuals. As Katt called them (the gatekeepers) black, powerful men. Drinking the poison Kool-aid of white society. Men who believe in order for them to get ahead. They have to backstab their own. Play the game of step and fetch to get ahead. Therefore, Katt"s video gives insight and clarity. Allowing you, the listener, to see past the shiny gold ball of fame. Ask yourself, why do these black men have wives that are extremely light, damn near white. Let's not forget about (black athletes). Most embrace colorism to the fullest. This has caused severe, serious emotional psychological damage within our race and outside our race. Unfortunately, colorism has conditioned the minds of black men and some black women. They're not enough unless they play the white mans game. By leaning into a false belief system. That has brainwashed many of our people. To see each other as not worthy to help each other get ahead. Orlando's take of all white people being racist and listening to him explain why he feels this way is understandable. Again, you have Orlando's take on whiteness, and Katt"s take on black men in Hollywood and whiteness. I take my hat off to both men. You don't have to like Katt Williams. To hear the truth in his interview. 💯

    I think Isabel Wilkerson's book Caste is making this argument. That we have cemented racism into a caste structure where Black people, particularly the most-melanated, are at the bottom.

      It's no secret that America has a racial caste system. Ever since "whiteness" was legally invented among some of the first colonizers

      “Racism (global white supremacy) is the local and global power system dynamic, structured and maintained by those who classify themselves as white; whether consciously or subconsciously determined; this system consists of patterns of perception, logic, symbol formation, thought, speech, action and emotional response, as conducted simultaneously in all areas of people activity: economics, education, entertainment, labor, law, politics, religion, sex, and war. The ultimate purpose of the system is to ensure white genetic survival and to prevent white genetic annihilation on Earth - a planet in which the overwhelming majority of people are classified as non-white, (black, brown, red, and yellow) by white skinned people. All of the non-white people are genetically dominant (in terms of skin coloration) compared to the genetic recessive white skinned people.”
      - Dr. Frances Cress Welsing

    my father was African and my mother was Caucasian. Born and raised only around white people in rural UK in the 60s. I did not even know what racism was until I was 16 and moved to London. Because I was a single black child I was no threat, in fact I was novel and grew up with good self esteem as children WANTED to be friends with the ‘different’ kid.
    However, I would contend that each and every one of us is racist. It is impossible for us not to be. Every day of our lives we are exposed to messages that white is better than non-white.
    I honestly believe that we cannot start to dismantle racism until each one of us looks at and accepts that we ALL view blackness negatively……because we have ALL been taught to. It is the filter through which we see the world. I have a lot more empathy for Caucasians when I remember they are suffering from the same lifelong conditioning that I am.

    Love is not love. Most men period going to take the path of least resistance when choosing a woman. I hate that narrative that blk women did not want me when i was high school so i had no choice but to date out. Sir lets be honest, maybe blk women seen something that blk men in Hollywood dont want to disclose. Sir say the internalized self hate made you want to be with someone that was the complete opposite of you. Sir you not going to get this narrative off, that the blk woman did me wrong 1000 years ago and Becky was there with open arms. Time to be honest...

    Fortunately, I learned the pitfalls, risks and complications of interracial dating when I was 17. After a very brief dating experience with a white girl in my mostly Black high school, one that she ended abruptly without explanation, no discussion. Orlando speaks nothing but truth. It’s not fair to paint ALL interracial relationships with the same brush, but most black people in them have to acquiescence their black experience for them to work. I’m not that one.

    @4:51 Anna Murray Douglass was Frederick's first and only black wife. Ottilie Assing was a white female who came to interview Douglass and ended up spending "22 summers” - on and off - living in the Douglass household. She is alleged to have been his mistress.
    There was no love lost between Anna and Ottilie. Anna was not pleased with her being in her home. Ottilie referred to Anna as a "stupid old hag." After Anna died, Douglass married Helen Pitts, a white female. Ottilie had hoped to become his second wife.
    Ottilie committed suicide in Paris. She willed money and books from her library to Frederick Douglass.
