I don't see any racism. Beautiful, educated black women. Their prospects for finding a husband in their socio-economic situation is gloomy. What is racist about that?
The fact that they are saying that they have no prospects for marriage because black men, in general, are allergic to marriage, shows that they are only willing to marry within the black race. If a white woman would say that, she would be considered a racist. Those beautiful, semi-intelligent women would have no problem finding a decent man if they were open to men of other races, only one admitted to even talking to a caucasian. I used the term uppity to drag out the jerks that would never see racism coming from black people, predictably they came out throwing the racist accusations towards me, it was great for a laugh. It worked as it always does.
If their attitudes were different, I would have loved to have dated any of those women in the video. Especially the one that assumed that white guys weren't asking her out because they wouldn't want to bring them home to their parents. My parents wouldn't have had anything to say except to ask me if I was happy. Her parents, on the other hand, may have had a problem with my cracker self....... ask the Bass or 52nd Street.
They lived in Atlanta. It is possible that a parent's reaction there might be quite different from another area of the country. Many of the parents and grandparents were exposed to harsh prejudice throughout their lives and I don't think they would want their children to have problems, or their grandchildren to have problems because their parents were of two different races. It's more acceptable in some areas of the country than others.
