Black Wives Matter
rejected black women
I want to point out one source of racial tension that is being ignored or repressed.
Darker-skinned women are often left out.
And how many black women in BLM marches were there because some white chick
And when it is repressed, the anger is then redirected to other topics -
and becomes absolutely unsolvable.
This is about black men who prefer white women, leaving black women alone and lonely,
but too often with fatherless children created by these same black men.

This is forced isolation of black women.
Color preferences in relationships create racial inequality; a sense of being left behind.
While there are many percentages given on the internet, the numbers tell us:

There are more women who want black men
than there are men who want black women.

That's sad.
I have enough black friends to know this is a problem.
This creates anger in black women.
I know a family where one young black man was dating a white girl.
His bio-sister said, “A Sista just can’t get a break!”
So, I know this is a real thang.
What does this girl do with her anger? It has to go somewhere.
The main point of this article is that a lot of black-inner-anger is being redirected

The main point of this article is that a lot of black-inner-anger is being redirected
in vague terms that no one will label, so it is difficult to solve.
Several years ago, I saw a magazine that highlighted,
“The 10 Most Beautiful Black Women of 19??” (I don't remember the exact year)
There was maybe one truly dark woman among them. One woman looked Italian.
The magazine should have said “The 10 Most Beautiful Redbone Women of 19??)”.
A solution? This article isn’t about offering a solution.

It is about pointing out the problem.
First, identify a problem; then look for the solution.
Yet, how many black women in America would say ‘Amen’?
Should black men say, “I have an obligation to prefer the women of my race,
so they too, can fully participate in the life that I am searching for."
Yes, or No?

I would like to see a debate on PBS between single black women

I would like to see a debate on PBS between single black women
and the white wives and white girlfriends of famous black men.
It would be interesting, don’t you think?
It would be interesting, don’t you think?
Would either side have the guts to participate?
Would PBS have the guts to host it?

And how many black women in BLM marches were there because some white chick
took the man that could have been hers,
but then .... they have to march beside the extrovert white chicks who steal their black men,
then act like they're doing black folks a favor by marching?
Or maybe some white chicks do this as a victory lap, to taunt black women.
Let's get this issue out in the open.
Sidebar: A couple of months after I wrote this first part, I came across a movie trailer,
set in a black hair boutique, where a white boyfriend came in to pick up his black girlfriend.
None of her friends had known her boyfriend was white.
There was clearly some disapproval.
It made me wonder... are black women against interracial marriage too,
simply for the fact that another black woman's child might be born with lighter skin,
and thus creating yet another level of color discrimination for their daughters?
I have been to Latin America and South America a few times,

I have been to Latin America and South America a few times,
sometimes in old seaport-cities like Cartegena, Columbia and Lima, Peru,
cities shared by:
Indigenous people,
Indigenous people,
Europeans,
descendants of slaves,
with every possible color combination thereof.
To them, shades of color are very important, for it indicates their social status.
A Question: So, is it morally wrong for a black man to marry a white woman?
My perspective: Only if he thinks white women are superior to black women.
I know several mixed-couple and get along fine with them.
Some people are simply color-blind,
but some people prefer someone lighter-or darker - for their own reasons.
