Our Talk On Race and Culture | Meet Our Parents Q&A 

As soon as his Mom said she is my ride or die had me immediately tearing up. If you marry into the right family you can acquire many soulmates! 💖💕

Brian's dad is so emotional...I teared up every time he did. What a loving family.

I cried when Brian's dad got emotional 😢 this world is so closed minded when it comes to ethical heritages. Im so happy for this family for getting through this 💓 I'm so happy I found this channel 🙏 God bless you all ❤🥰 Both families raised great children, Aza is blessed 🙌

I love Brian’s father’s honesty and openness about race.

I am a black woman who really really appreciated this video. It was touching. Especially with your dad. You guys give us so much hope. Lord God, In Jesus Name, continue to bless and keep this family.😊

The is EVIDENCE that LOVE KNOWS NO COLOUR🤗🤗

Dad made me cry. What he said about Lexi and wrapping his arms around her to keep her safe guarded is just amazing. You guys are incredible people. God Bless you all. 🕊🙏🏽🕊🙏🏽

Omg! Brian's dad looks like the white version of T.D.Jakes!

His parents are extremely loving people. We need more people like them in the world of all races🥰😍

Tears welled Im my eyes as I listened to your Dad explain the changes he went through and how he finally understood how Lexie needed to be protected. He was overwhelmed with emotion and so was I...that a white man with his background really really was able to understand the fear that black mothers and fathers have for their children daily. You are a very very special family and it is a blessing to see believers who actually “live” the word. Your conversation was totally honest and I was so blessed by it. I pray that God continues to watch over you all and protect your love for one another. Your daughter looks absolutely beautiful!!😇

Mom's voice is so beautiful-- earthy, melodic, and full. Very powerful. I need her to record an audiobook or something...❤❤

“We don’t know what we don’t know!” THIS! Being open and educating yourself is everything.

I’m convinced that God uses multi-ethnic relationships like this to bridge racial tensions in the world. Not to say it’s for everyone. But when it is, it is. 🙌🏽 #married13years #momof3biracialkids

Brian’s dad!!!:,)) I used to go to your church and he was always so kind to me(my mom included), always such a genuine person! I was quite young so I was incredibly shy, but he always made the effort to talk to me : ] much love to you guys!!!

OMG I love Brian's dad! That's a real man. His love for his family brings him to tears. Love it!

When Brian stated - I was ready to war for this one. So sweet.

Mama said this my ride or die... I love it!

I’m crying with your dad Brian .. Mr.Cole you’re the REAL MVP A MAN OF GOD !

I am a 72 year old African American female and I sit here listening to you guys and your parents try not to cry. I find The Coles to be the most amazing people, TRUE CHRISTIANS. You’re so beautiful warm sweetheart. God bless you all 😀❤️

This should have gone viral, great conversation.

Whoa, love the honesty of your parents especially your dad. He’s so sincere.

This was so genuine. I teared up when the FIL got emotional about protecting Lexi. This gives me hope that one day we will be treated equally.

Oh my!!!!! I love her father in law!!!!! When he talked about wrapping his arms around her in protection, I could not help the tears....for so many reasons!!!

Brian”s dad made me cry. He truly felt hurt for not protecting his daughter. Thanks for being so open in this conversation. Every person on this earth has prejudices because of our background. But, people that choose to live life to the full will grow. Nice to see the love between humans. We are all of the human race but have different cultures. Great examples of patience, forgiveness, acceptance and love in a family.

I usually don’t comment, but I knew there was a reason why I was subscribed to your channel. This is it! Not just because you are a Christian couple or that you’re a mixed culture family, but because of the love you two have for each other and the love that your families have for each other. I would love to have that one day. Thank you for sharing ❤️

This transparency is rich. Blessings to your family in Jesus.

When Brian’s Dad started talking about the need to protect Lexi I just started tearing up! You all are such beautiful people!😭

To be honest- I can barely watch this for crying. This is a necessary story. Thank you Mr. Cole Sr for your vulnerability. This is what is needed in the world. When he talks about wanting to learn how to protect Lexi. Wow. Beautiful family ❤️

Where do one gets inlaws as loving as Lexi"s? That was a beautiful conversation.

I love this family the in-laws are so genuine, honest, respectful, emotional, love god, family oriented, appreciative, accept & love their daughter-in-law. I pray for more families like them 🙏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾💙

I live in Michigan and this is the conversation that needs to be had with all people. I love your relationship and your willingness to have the "talk". I was shocked when your father-in--law said he was from Howell since its been know to be very racist. In a world full on so much hatred I applaud you for taking the time to do this and prove that its easier to love than hate. Keep spreading God's 2nd commandment to "love our neighbor as we love ourselves". Be blessed and be safe.

I have to admit that Brian's dad getting emotional as he talked about being oblivious to Lexi needing to be protected made me cry. I had to take a pause and process that. Beautiful ♥️ family

5:25 when the mother explains "the level of consciousness and sensitivity that's needed" that was gorgeous, just gorgeous x

I am watching this from Nairobi, Kenya. Over the past few weeks, I have been watching the racial tensions in the US on the news and was so saddened BUT am so touched by this family, truly living out their Christian faith. Choosing to LOVE each other regardless of their skin colors is truly a testimony to the the Kingdom of God! LOVE is a choice. May the good LORD shine His face upon you, bless you, keep you and protect you.

I teared up every time with Brian’s dad. He’s such an amazing person. Very beautiful family.

Brian and Lexi, I am in love with your parents.When your dad begins to speak there is a calmness he represents from God and your mother is an angel of God's love. Stay blessed and focused, the world loves all of you.💖🙏🏽💖🙏🏼💖🙏🏽💖🙏🏼💖🙏🏽💖🙏🏼💖🙏🏽💖🙏🏼

I am gonna need your dad to stappppppp! This is the second video I have watched that he made me cry. Such a gentle soul!

Your sweet daddy is such an emotional soul. You don’t have the Everybody Loves Raymond parents. Awesome! LOL

This was deep! I truly respect your parents and their love and protection of Lexi and Lexi's love for them.

"The power of forgiveness and the power of an apology"Mr.Cole sir I tip my crown to you. Its an easy concept that people find hard to do. That is in the heart of Love which is God. To your family Well in peace.💜🙏🏾

Sniff, sniff..🥰..What Lovely in-laws/family unit!..and quite an eye opening conversation..I assumed 'white privilege' was common knowledge..This is a beautiful example of what could/should be in many homes..culturally mixed or not!

I'm five minutes in and I'm like okay Lexi! Give us hair, give us shoulder Queen. ❤

In light of the climate in America at the moment this is just a testament of what real love is all about regardless of race the most important race is the human race and this is the beautifully demonstrated in this video. I was so moved watching the transparency and emotion that Brian’s dad displayed when admitting his views growing up about the black people, it was real and authentic and I feel it’s made a beautiful difference to how the whole family interact with each other. This is a model that America needs to embrace to facilitate change, One family at a time willing to have hard conversations. 🙏🏿

Brian definetly has his mother's eyes. He's parents are beautiful on the outside and seem beautiful on the inside.

This family is so beautiful! It's so nice to see so much acceptance and love from one person to another, this is how the world really should be. I hope the generation after us has these kind of role models in their lives so they grow up loving one another regardless of skin colour, religion, or culture. Beautiful video you guys

Wow. To even be able to have such a deep conversation in this dynamic is incredible. It’s clear that ur parents have truly done their research and educated themselves. Amazing. Thank you for sharing your stories. I think we can all use a video like this during this time.

I love Brian’s dad, wow, he humility and willingness to have those conversations 😭😭😭😭 God bless this family ❤️🖤

My God this family is what everyone would love to have in any race. Both parents are incredible and to hear a father-in -law wanting to protect his daughter-in-law warmed my heart immensely. So beautiful ❤️

Your dad made me cry, and I wish every white people can learn from your dad . Am a black woman and also a Christian ,I never ever question God but since last week I begin to question God why people hate my skin and I have been crying every day

No words to explain how incredibile this family is! I have a different kind of love towards your family that I can't explain. I'm not able to describe it at all.🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Thank you to ALL of you for making this video! The WORLD needs it MORE THAN EVER right now!!! I'm an ex from an interracial marriage. None of these conversations were had before, during or after the marriage. His parents and sister loved me no doubt. However, the birth of my son REALLY had a HUGE EXTRA impact on us all as a collective family. I was raised to respect EVERYONE unless and until they behaved in a manner so as to disrespect me or threaten my welfare. Blessings to you all! Your dad cried like my son's papa whenever he was around his bleoved grandbaby, or whenever he talked about him. Love is Love! Again, thank you! Wishing you bliss, magic and miracles along this journey we call life!! You are a gorgeous couple and ...Girl I am HERE FOR THAT HAIR!!!!! LOL! One Love from beautiful BERMUDA!

I really have enjoyed this video because a lot of interracial couples never expose their parents inner thoughts about African Americans being in their families. This was very enlightening and for His Dad to reveal his willingness to learn and protect Lexi is everything!

Y’all are so very understanding of both cultures you can see the love ,beautiful I enjoyed the conversation.

This video really lifted my spirit. To know that there are genuine people out there who are willing to face difference hed on and learn from it. Much love

So freaking appreciate this video. I LOVE YOUR PAPA. I LOVE HIM!! Please hug him for me. This video needs to go viral. This video needs to play at every drive in movie theater. This video needs to be a freaking public service announcement. You did GREAT! So happy for you to show how America should be! WELL DONE! WELL DONE!! Amen. Amen.

Can you guy's do this with Lexi's parents as well it would be great to get another perspective of the other side since Mr Cole said they need each other for the family to be whole and for it to work. This was great

South Africa loves you cole life.. now let me watch

Love your parents. Their authenticity, candidness and love is so beautiful

Bryant's pears are amazing how they explain their whole true feelings is just awesome now I would love to be part of their friendship.

This was such a beautiful video! I am new to y’alls channel and have already watch quite a few today. I am in an interracial relationship and have a similar family dynamic that y’all have. I am insanely close with my husband’s family and vice versa. We have just truly started to really get into the meat of talking about race with our parents together and seeing this video was very validating. Thank you for your content!

I wanted to hug your dad when he started getting emotional. You guys are blessed to have amazing parents. I'd love to hear how your parents met.

This was absolutely amazing. Transparency was definitely needed with such touchy subjects, so important to have it. Dad had me crying because I felt every bit of his emotions. In no way do I think you guys are perfect however I love your family dynamic.

Being from Michigan and hearing where both of his parents are from... Howell Michigan has a history. It’s kind of miracle that his parents met. I was blessed to hear the openness 💕#lovemichigan #family

Elder Dave Cole was my Sunday school teacher years ago at the churchin Highland Park. The best Sunday school teacher ever. Ive had the privilege of being Ministered to by Elder Mary Lou Cole as she was on the ministerial staff at my former church in Highland Park. She is one of the most anointed women doing it for God. I've learned so much from them directly and indirectly. Their love is rich.

😭😭😭 This is for every human, seriously! We are all learning and growing! Wow, such transparency, humility and vulnerability! Beautiful! Psalms 133

I clicked so fast!!! I found you guys a few days ago and I’ve been binge watching ever since. Your family is so sweet and funny and I absolutely love your relationship with God ❤️ I definitely aspire to have a relationship and family like yours some day

This is love, willing to change, for their son. It is hard when one is not willing to change. Once a declaration is made, the universe opens up for you.

My favourite couple. They're Godly, professional and family oriented.

Whew! Dad brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful Family 😍

Thank you for sharing so candidly. I know for a fact that all racially mixed relationships don’t turn out like that. My sister in law’s father stop speaking to her after she married my brother. He never wanted to meet his grandchildren. He died without knowing them. It did my heart well to see the willingness to change and to see the world with different eyes. There’s hope for country, one person at a time.

I will like to hear more of Brian's father's story. He is a bundle of experience and emotions. Am really touched

Firstly, thank you for sharing this moment with us. Kudos to your amazing parents. This is so heartfelt and the fact that you all were able to talk and understand one another just a little more, speaks volume. Awesome!

I love how emotional ur dad is omg 🙂 everytime he gets emotional tears come to my eyes 😪

Such a beautiful God-fearing family. To that, I say Amen! Just beautiful you guys.

Argh, I just love how your dad is so emotional. Brought a bit of tears in my eyes. The way I was smiling throughout the video, you guys are such a wonderful family and I pray that God keeps you and bless you continuously.

I am a black woman and I would love to marry into this family. I feel the love! 💗

This was absolutely beautiful! Bryan, your parents are so sweet and kind. I can see that your dad is a sweetheart.

I'm literally in love with this whole family

Your family- tears of joy! The in law dynamic - goals. I have a mother in law that is equally awesome. Your dad - his love and willingness to embrace and understand that there is more to the story. Thank you for sharing your intimate story to help others grow. Your mom and dad should go on a speaking tour!!

I really enjoyed this interview. This is a conversation that I believe ALL families need to have. Daddy Cole truly pulled at my heart strings when he nearly broke down. But to me it showed the depth of his love and feelings towards Lexi. Thanks for sharing ❤

This was a beautiful video! Love and a willingness to grow can conquer anything!

Brain,please do you have single and searching brother, because I'm single, phew!!! God knows I love your family.

This was awesome. I do really appreciate this dialogue so honesty transparency and I thank Brian's parents was sitting there with open hearts and just pouring out to us and that's why we should not judge a person God told us to love each other and we let him do the judging so I thank them so much for for this conversation. You have one big loving family on both side. And through your love we see the Lord and how He is THE HEAD OF both Families. AMEN

Thank you for sharing this. It was so moving to see this kind of healing in family 🙌🏾

I’m so happy to see this. Quite frankly these protest and seeing who’s out there marching has helped me keep my faith in humanity.

I loved this whole video!! So beautiful. Dad had me teary-eyed & I loved the relationship between Lexi, mom & dad. So beautiful! Beautiful family! I have to share this video!! We all need this video at a time like this. I was smiling throughout the video. Thank you for sharing!

Aww your parents are so awesome!!! Love their openness and vulnerability to share their stories as well as acknowledge where they've fallen short in regards to sensitivity for other people. This was great!

Grandma Mother's instinct never left. You can tell by the pat on the back that she as in remission waiting for her children to bring a grandchild home. I love this video. Your family is awesome!!

Love ❤️ how close your family is! Brian’s day is adorable, he made me cry

What an absolutely beautiful family! Only God could put such a beautiful family together! I’m completely overwhelmed with the blessings you just shared. Thanks again, Brian &Lexi! May God continue to bless you and your family!💕

I have never cried so much watching a video!!! Papa Cole is such a sweetheart

This was beautiful to watch. Especially Brian's dad!! He was so vulnerable and willing to change, for the sake of family!!! Just beautiful!

Love the talk on Race and Culture, thank all of you, when we just sit and listen and talk to each other we learn a lot that each persons is the same, Made by GOD and we are all GODS childrens

So happy that you all get along so well. I can see that the baby already have great grand parents who are so proud. Best wishes, always.

What an awesome father! He was so heartfelt, I was brought to tears. May God continue to keep them all and bless them immensely. 🙏❤️

What a wonderful family, amazing parents so open and loving,I wish that everyone was as open as they are if we were the world would be a better place. Wishing them all of Gods blessings

I love that you and his mom have a wonderful relationship. I had one with mine and I loved it.
