Lynn Whitfield Calls Out Interracial Marriage Backlash | In This Room 

BOOM

True ,I date out & I don’t explain nothing to nobody it’s my life

@@sena1899 Same here😘

Bc black men aren’t held accountable for anything

Now this is the question!! As a non-American i've been trying to wrap my head around this. Because all i see in media, especially wealthy bmen, is them with other non black women.

She was phenomenal!

Yes, just spectacular!

Lee Sto fetish

Destined4Greatness sure did

Dashynae Day she was a concubine to that white men

they are gonna hate her for that ending!!

@Bold & Beautiful You're absolutely right!!! It just frustrates me how black women get played soooo easily 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ but thanks to the internet a lot of black women, young and old, are finally waking up and putting themselves first.

@@brwnhilarybanks9953 They'd hate her either way, so at least she valued her own happiness over the approval of strangers that have nothing to offer her 🤷🏾‍♀️

Whitley you president of the bedwench foundation?

@@hebrewthought9976 President of the broke dustys association? The people that have the least offer always have the most to say 😒😒😒

Ever Gorgeous you sound stupid, I'm married to a beautiful, intelligent loving black man.

@Ever Gorgeous : Their chickens came home to roost. Look at the white women calling cops on black guys for no valid reasons.

Ever Gorgeous you are bitter my dear. sounding like an old wrench....ouch!!!

Ever Gorgeous go and take your medication, you are sick. My beautiful burnt BLACK GOLD MAN ABSOLUTELY ADORES ME. We are very happy. My Mother and Father has been married for over 30 yrs, stop with your ignorance all men are not the same. check back when u and your so called white man has been together that long. so go and run along.

@Ever Gorgeous Couldn't agree more, but you can't tell wives like her nothing. I tell wives like her they're not with their hasbeens all day everyday, so she REALLY don't know what he's doing. Most black husband's ACT single at WORK; take other people (not necessarily women) to lunch, flirting at the gym - girl please. I wouldn't trust a black man to give me the time of day. Most black wives have attitudes and short tempers because they're mad on the inside dealing with their hasbeens mess.

Yes

Yes, she absolutely is a legend, underrated.

Yes she is.

Chayce Per Usual well said

Briana Oliver Exactly!!

Amen. Marry who you want to marry as long as you love one another.

How did she find her happiness when the white husband made her a single mom?

Lee Sto Didn't know that divorcing a woman and making her a single mom was supporting her 😂😂😂

Jevon Jackson Exactly! Explore your options for ALL races of quality men! choose character over color like christelyn karazin always say!!watch the video she did about Lynn Whitfield: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EHSB-QPR0mY.html

Funny thing, the indigenous Sri Lankans are black. The vedda tribe 😉

Black Women Have NO FRIENDS yes, they are very dark and very beautiful.

That's good they are black people😌

@@xtraprebel6274 No they arent. There are some black south asians due to the Arab slave trade but all south asians are not black. Some are indo european

And that is for real possible. I knew a lady, while teaching overseas, who was married to a Sri Lankan, Chavvah.

Miss Klassy, Of course, you liars know the perfect time to show up with your stereotypes and generalization of BM. If you’re so happy why does it matter what BM do? Since when is interracial dating one-upping each other? You people have the wrong mentality.

I, enjoyed that interview as well!

She is still so gorgeous...

@Oral Powell Anita Baker, Jill Scott, Nancy Wilson, Melba Moore, Patti LaBelle, Vanessa L. Williams, Yolanda Adams were married to black men. Beyonce, Shanice Wilson, Latanya Richardson, Viola Davis, Monique are married to black men. I am trying to understand the point that you are trying to make.

Dianne - he has no point

she is only 65 , dude

Errrr I know you mean well. But, that type of statement is the problem.....women are beautiful, gorgeous and excellent. Regardless of age.

She looks gorgeous period. Plus women generally look better than men at any age.

She maybe even looks good for your age.

Ms. Audrey Rugburn I just spit alil bahaaaahaa yes even for his age😳 Lynn beauty stands the test of time🙇🏾‍♀️Queen

I agree...

Thanks, been saying that forever!!!

not when their dating history says different it means they have a type (if I see a black man and he has only dated "other" to me that means he is not interested in black women)

The only sensible comment here.

THANK YOU!!!

Sharonda , you'll smash

@@PHlophe hey this is shronda thanks for your feedback, that picture is my son. I like men but be blessed.....

Y’all are pathetic

Marrying ugly white men who leave you with a baby is making you happy? Lmaoo

+N.W.A. Would it have been better if she was with a black man who leaves her as a single mother? And let's be honest, that happens much more with black men.

Mary Allen, I agree 100%. I'm a black woman that is educated, loving and attractive, but I have to admit; I have more white men that are paying attention to me than the black men. I love black men, but as to black women, we are not being loved like we deserve to be nor even being paid attention to....so, what's a woman to do? Wait?...I definitely believe in love no matter the color. Forget the backlash and be happy.

@@katelinparks9536false

Don't come back to black men later... 👎👎👎👎

AK Gordari, that's the right word, "regal." She has a sophisticated flair and ambience to herself that is effortless.

You have self hate. Just like Serena Williams. Admit it.

It is a things because people choose to be ignorant.

Funny how y'all never give Black Men that pass lol it's all hypocrisy

Closed minded people ALWAYS find 'a thing' to be angry about... just sayin

N.W.A. Bitch shut the fuck up

She's so beautiful & sophisticated

It's a abomination, read your bible.

It weakens nations

Tribalism

caramelhoney29 It destroys the Black Family and erases our authentic bloodline.

caramelhoney29 They have to have something to bitch about. Miserable people tend to do just that. I date whomever I wish, not seeking anyone's permission or approval.

Not really. It's always funny how our community owes people shit....while they owe us nothing. GTFOH. Josephine Baker's story isn't one that up holds our story ....anyway. maybe some France mag should give her that cover...how about that

@Lee Sto by sleeping with white man

T R now I wouldn’t be surprised if they contacted her for one since she put them on blast which I am beyond shocked. Didn’t know that🤷🏾‍♀️ 🤦🏾‍♀️

@@nakrwa I definetly understand your viewpoint, as well as everyone elses. I would think that it's harder for black men to succeed for hundreds of reasons. But at the end of the video when she says "Where were you?" directed at black men, I think it's unfair to expect black men to be able to break barriers as effectively as black women, because women are seen as weaker and therefore more easily connect to everyone including white dominated social groups, industries, etc. Edit: What do you think?

oh hunty! the shade!

@@throwthatassinaprayercircl2662 Triggered! Actually, I see her in a different light. Where is the shade?

Maybe because she plays those harsher roles? She’s truly light & fresh persona

@@Brwniee95 I have never seen her in a harsh role, in fact just the opposite. She's played serious elegant women most of her career, even when she was in a comedy she was relatively serious and elegant.

1969Vanessa G like to me in this movie she was a bit critical & controlling as a mother & there’s other movies but I can’t think of at the moment ; that’s what I meant .. z

Borders King black women run behind white men to try to get babies with so-called good head.. because you see how she started out talking about her hair that s*** look nappy f***** up she burn it out with perm

Yes! She taught Martin a huge lesson for playing with her heart. Loved her in that!

Me too😂

Lesley Hal Lynn Whitfield and Angela bBassett resemble each other. I used to like them both. I still like Angela.

Bedi D I can see where the look alike come from. How come you don’t like Lynn anymore? She’s a fabulous diva just like Angela 🤔😀

v t As the product of an interracial couple, let me just say that it’s no one’s business!

Word

Have at it

v t the correct term is couldn't care less

And to be frank----BLACK women need to wake up and find love in other colors. It doesn't always have to look like you. So many black beautiful women are alone because "we are looking for a "brother" to complete us. Well sometimes it not going to be a "brother" it's going to look like John with the blue eyes.

Wickedly Jaded : The irony of your statement. Are non-blk men competing to get with black women, the way black women are competing to get with them? When have u seen non-blk men building Interracial platforms the way y'all do? Lol, I can't with yall messiness.

@@plantiron totally agree

@Wickedly Jaded maybe I'm a little closed minded, but I have never met a white man that I'm attracted to. I just love darker skin. Just my choice. However your insight is appreciated. Ty

@Wickedly Jaded I understand that, but I've not yet had that connection, and I'm not pursuing anyone, no matter what race, but again, thank you for the insight.

I am not knocking any race, ppl can date whomever they want to, whether black white or other. I'm just not a basher of the black man...no matter what, not saying that you are. Other races don't bash thier men. Also there has to be some type of attraction, be it, spiritual, physical or otherwise and I'm not going to let statistics drive me crazy. There're lot of statistics about black ppl period, and I don't pay attention to those either, or I won't let myself live. I'll just wait for my connection. Maybe I'll be alone maybe not, but either way I'll be a happy person. A man does not define me.

she has sharp african features , her daughter looks so much like her.

Beverly LaGrant yeah she true to who she is just like the rest of the black women self hate their own hair so they run behind white men to try to get babies with so-called good hair because she started out talking about her hair remember

I wore ghana braids for a month. the itch was soooooooooo bad. I Wanted to remove them as soon as I got home. never again .

Black women are so delusional...by the way black men love serena...lets talk about the artist that saw her as a beast..but of course yall ignore that from the white male artist(thats his true colors showing)..we as men are not mad at your dating preference..we just wish yall would just go with white zaddy and stop trying to diss the brothers at the same time.if you jumped the fence its really no reason to talk about the brothers anymore..lol...theres plenty more sisters for us..i just dont understand how people could date or marry their oppressor..black women (not all) just blindly ignore history..have a good day sis..just my opinion

Jessie C Love that's bullshyt. Serena ghetto ass just didn't want to share her life with a black man. Her and her sister straight from the hood. Yet they run after white men. Notice none of her other sisters are with white men.

Jessie C Love its always a bullshyt answer. These sistas know brothas try and date them. They lusy after white men just like black men do with white females

@@tommyforte7157 Curse yourself not me. Serena is all you can try to come back with? You sound big mad; especially with the need to use profanity. My only question is, who did Serena date before she got married? Did you see her with a load of European decent men?

@@LOGICAL-JAY Funny. Black women have stood on the front line for ya'll so thick! A lot of our men are the first to disrespect us on wax, call us THOT based on what the KKK use to call us, and promote us as sex toys in videos, yet talk about the oppressor? I guess the same way that a lot of black men marry the white woman; a possible symbol of who suppressed, beat, mocked, and had the black woman breast feed her children. A lot of our black men want to play house for years and have the black woman playing a wife... Far too many of our black men have children with several women, yet point a finger? You knew upon sight if you would wife her or play with her... Talking about it's not normal for men to be with one...Nevertheless, I'm so glad that you are married to the mother of your child(ren) and are faithful to the home you share with her. We need that to build wealth in the black community... Go reach back and teach our young men how to do that too. (that's if you have a child and you are one of the few who has married the mother of his child.)

omg, you were named after 2 aunties, Sharon and Veronica. that's hella cute.

@MrOGG oh hush. We don't see BM lining up to marry BW.

Black men give black women a nigga wake up call everyday, but these women just roll over and back into a coma. The woke black women get the hell away from black men and stay away!! Don't worry we won't be back, nothing to come back to!!

Embrace the demons

Lol wow ppl are bothered for no reason saying way more than a what was even referred to! 😂😂 you ppl need therapy for real if you ever thought it was THAT serious. Lol never in life will you catch me saying such demonic things about my own race.

@MrOGG lol I think you need a therapy session.

Tell your sisters to stop hating first

Cosmos Princess For real! I date out myself since 13. Was married to a black man (he's dates IR) and we don't trip either. Interesting, we are open minded non conformist Southern ppl. Though our marriage didn't work out, we still friends and co-parenting.

Keeshia Lacy So you're giving someone dating advice with a bastard baby? Black women are a joke 😂😂😂😂😂😂

N.W.A. Lol Yawnnn!! nice try bruh. We was married meaning our kid came into the world with legally married parents with his father's name and recognized by law and filed in the courthouse Just like our parents; legally married. We Southern black folks are raised with morals and believe in marriage and our children having the father's family name. Called legacy 👏

Cosmos Princess running behind white men licking the shit out of their asses like their little pet finish

Lee Sto yeah after y'all done got messed over by everybody and passed around... then you want to come back running spreading white diseases in the black community to us black men...😂

ALPO YEO You sound hurt.

Shay Barnes you notice she started out speaking on her hair... then she went straight into why she married a white man... now here comes the self-hate of a black woman... she went straight into talking about her daughter black women run to white men to try to have babies with so call good hair... black women denies it but that's the reason why they hate their own hair

@@alpoyeo7008 That isn't true! most of us love our natural hair 😂

Capricorn84 M. I already told you black women going to deny it but black women hate like hell The hair on their head they will married any other race they can to try to get kids with so call good hair... if you listen to this woman in this video the whole thing is over her hair.. And showing off her daughter she had by the white man

@@alpoyeo7008 Yeah I watched the video, she stated she waited for the brother's to make her an offer she couldn't refuse... I guess no one wanted to step up to the plate! but as far as having mixed babies just for good hair, I don't know about that 1... both of my daughter's are black with a very nice hair texture, and I've never dated outside of my race! to each it's own tho 🤷🏽‍♀️

Char Buggs 💋💞💕💓💍💎Queen

Char Buggs, so does everyone else apparently! That's the problem; at least for black women. Glad you have your very own dark skin brother. Be good to him. Better yet, be good to each other! Peace & blessings to you.

Thank you my sister

@Nova Starr lol stop being salty.

Derrick Barnett You're welcome!

Yellow Roses I said there’s no difference. One is no better than the other.

Ditto.. unfortunately a white man was my first experience in relationships and he fucked me up #literally

Brittanica Lee gurl speak the truth and speak it ever. Let me guess... you used to tell yourself Love is love, and BM are bad, right? Or were you just a victim of the KK trap?

Bye!

crickets until now your points is based off opinions , your not making any sense i have no problem with black women with white men or other way around but im not gonna let you bash african american men my father and uncles stood ten toes and took care of there fam even when times was hard, my uncle a black man took care of a white womens son who father was a dead beat. oh and he was a white man dead beats have no color at all. you sound foolish and its sad such hate is placed on black men and women to turn them against each other. and who ever agrees with you are just as dumb , you have dead beats in a race of men

Malcolm M,I am a Melanin woman and you are absolutely correct.

Everyone has choices on who they want to date or marry now you hear some say they don't want someone whose not established, if a man or woman whatever race they are is not good enough for you when their struggling, they're not good enough for you when they're established.

@@The1baddman l

The1baddman ..those seeking established partners must be as such

Malcolm M these bitches never wanted a black man they always wanted a white person dont let the talk fool you.

BOOM!!!!!

Without the homophobic

Jadasan Where were you? Where are you? Let’s see...in jail ( a disproportionate number of BW are there, too ) on the DL as prostitutes or lesbos, or spreading anti black men messages online...like the one I am answering to. I could even have added vying for GG credentials. Now you see these are hurtful generalizations used against BP as a whole. It’s sad to see we are letting ourselves be proxies for WS haters.

LOL

Bedi D Don't forget 5 baby's but 5 different men then blame all BLACK Men because you chose to open your legs up to the wrong type of man!Do you know how hard it is to find a Be with out children???

don't wear them, period

Rock your wig if you want to Sis.

T T I do🤣! But she made a good point about at dinner.

Lechiffresix six I wouldn’t but I’d like to stay married 🤫😍.

It is not BW's job to go and search, the men are hunters.

Thinking you are classy and being classy are two different things

Saying "where were you" does not in anyway allude to the race being inadequate, it means they literally were not around simply as that. YOU and I never went to the same school and have never been coworkers, so I never had the good fortune of meeting YOU. That's a simple factual truth. I went to a school where majority of the Black men liked mixed girls, period. When mixed wasn't enough they went all the way outside. The 1 Black guy in our grade happy to date a dark skin girl DID And she wasn't me. Where were the others? If there was another one nobody knew because he didn't approach US. Simply our misfortune. Meanwhile the Hispanic boys loved their own AND Black girls. Dark black girls. Eventually I dated a Spanish boy meanwhile all my Black girlfriends stayed single and lovesick over guys who treated them as invisible because they weren't exotic with silky hair. Or they had a crush on dome Chris brown looking boy who was dating his equivalent . Race was important to them, they didn't feel comfortable with non-blacks. But I wasn't like that. Black men were my PREFERENCE but not my "goal". I like who likes me. When random Black dudes started asking me why I was with who I was with it was extremely hypocritical. Guys that never asked me to a dance never gave me valentines lol. Then they got out of line telling me I should have waited for a Black guy. Um, no. I will not shut down good Ppl I know exist for a hypothetical nobody based on race. Naturally friendships develop into relationships, I'm friends with all races and I can see myself romantically with any race and I'm comfortable with that VS as a child I thought races had to stick to each other and shied away until one too many Spanish boys kept asking me on dates and crushing on me while my Black male friends only saw me as a friend. That has nothing to do with inadequacy that's just life. And just like I didn't like EVERY boy that has ever liked me you haven't had chemistry with every person that has crushed on you. Regardless of race or finances. That "perfect" black counterpart is not in everyone's experience. Should those Spanish men not have found me equal to or BETTER than their women? Its life

Black Women Have NO FRIENDS it’s not the black womans job to do anything apparently but to have abortions, have kids out of wedlock, and take take take lmao.

@@blackwomenhavenofriends8319 sorry that's bs, if you want something you go out and get it, nothing is going to fall in your lap... this is 2018, what are you Joan of the Ark, Princess Nefetti? like it's 2018, if you're waiting for the "perfect" black man or the the black man who you think is worthy of you to approach you, then he could have very well just passed you, go for what you want... this is why so many black ppl are without partners waiting for knight in shinning armor to fall in their laps, it don't work that way, go for what you want it's 2018, forget that old fashion crap

Blaq By Design agreed! However, to each their own.....if it’s really true love-love sees no color. I just hate when people do things for the wrong reasons. For me personally, as a black woman, I’d rather have a black man.

To each their own

Lol. That's hilarious 😂

yeah that ain't gonna get sistas knockin on your door for saying that,bruh
