So I'm watching this clip from the Hannity show on the FOX news network. Tell me why people act like their dumb? Here's the clip:
My Analysis
I definitely understand what he's talking about and I'm not going to sit here and lie and say that I feel all lovey-dovey about a black man getting with a white woman. But if that's what you wanna do. do you. Love is love and I cannot judge. I'm not hating on random strangers, especially Tiger Woods who, like may other biracial people of status and acclaim decide not to claim being white. So I'm not mad at dude for marrying a white woman. Let him do what he wants to do. He is not accountable to me nor is he accountable to the black community. He lost the accountability when he decided he was not black enough to be considered black. And even if he was black to me, I am not Jesus so I can't judge him. When OJ married that white woman and got himself in trouble by killing her ( we all agreed that he killed her right?) it looked worst for him, why? 'Cause he was black and she was white. Don't get it twisted, the black community supported him in his craziness. But He was still wrong and in the public eye, he will always be a villain because he killed that "poor white girl".
As a black woman, I know that we cannot always depend on the media to depict us as beautiful. But for ages, we as black woman were assured within ourselves that black men had not fallen for standard set by the media. They still found us worth the pursuit of courtship, the labor of love that is marriage and a rightful dispenser for their children. I think it is a innate desire of not only black woman but of all woman to be wanted by a man. Recently, more black males are marrying outside of their race than ever before. It is a small percentage of black males and of course, there are more white males marrying outside of their race than black males, but proportionately, black males find life partners outside of their race more readily. The feeling brought about is that we are not good enough for our own men. If it were not compounded by the fact that we are not good enough for society as the ideal mom (single black mothers portrayed in the media), the ideal wife (nagging, opinionated, and loud as portrayed by the media) or the ideal female ( most female icons of beauty and overall femininity are white). Why must white people like Hannity and his friend act like we do not already live in a society that puts black females down? Why is he acting like racism doesn't exist? How can you get past a psychological mindset that has been ingrained over centuries? Don't act like your dumb. If your white wife wants to feel wanted, don't you think it would make sense that black females would want to feel wanted too?
