A RESPONSE FROM ONE OF OUR BLACK PRINCE

DEAR JAMIE,

I WOULD LIKE TO RESPOND TO A LETTER WRITTEN BY A DISGUSTED WHITE GIRL.
FIRST OF ALL LET ME START BY SAYING THAT I AM A 28 YEAR OLD BLACK MAN.
I GRADUATED FROM ONE OF THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS UNIVERSITIES IN ATLANTA,
GA. WITH A BACHELOR OF ARTS DEGREE IN BUSINESS MANAGEMENT. I HAVE A
GOOD JOB AT A MAJOR CORPORATION AND HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED A HOUSE. SO
I CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE AMONG THE RANKS OF SUCCESSFUL BLACK MEN. I WILL
NOT USE MY PRECIOUS TIME TO SLANDER WHITE PEOPLE. I JUST WANT TO SET
THE RECORD STRAIGHT OF WHY BLACK MEN DATE WHITE WOMEN.

BACK IN THE DAY, ONE OF THE BIGGEST REASONS WHY BLACK MEN DATED WHITE
WOMEN WAS BECAUSE THEY WERE CONSIDERED EASY. THE BLACK GIRLS IN MY
NEIGHBORHOOD WERE RAISED IN THE CHURCH. THEY WERE VERY STRICT ABOUT
WHEN THEY LOST THEIR VIRGINITY AND WHO THEY LOST IT TO. BECAUSE OF OUR
IMPATIENCE TO WAIT, BROTHERS WOULD LOOK FOR SOMEONE WHO WOULD GIVE IT
UP EASY WITHOUT TOO MUCH HASSLE, SO THEY TURNED TO THE WHITE GIRLS.
NOWADAYS, IN MY OPINION, A LOT OF BROTHERS DATE WHITE WOMEN BECAUSE
THEY ARE DOCILE AND EASY TO CONTROL.

A LOT OF BLACK MEN, BECAUSE OF THEIR INSECURITIES, FEARS AND OVERALL
WEAKNESS, HAVE BECOME INTIMIDATED BY THE STRENGTH OF OUR BLACK WOMEN.
WE ARE AFRAID THAT OUR WOMEN WILL BE MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN US, MAKE MORE
MONEY THAN US, DRIVE BETTER CARS AND OWN BIGGER HOUSES. BECAUSE OF THIS
FEAR MANY BLACK MEN LOOK FOR A MORE DOCILE WOMAN. SOMEONE WE CAN
CONTROL. I HAVE TALKED TO NUMEROUS BLACK MEN AND THEY CONTINUOUSLY
COMMENT ON HOW EASY IT IS TO CONTROL AND WALK OVER THEIR WHITE
WOMEN. I JUST WANT TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT.

I WANT THE DISGUSTED WHITE GIRL TO KNOW NOT ALL SUCCESSFUL BLACK MEN
DATE WHITE WOMEN. BROTHERS LIKE AHMAD RASHAD, DENZEL WASHINGTON,
MICHEAL JORDON, MORRIS CHESTNUT, WILL SMITH, BLAIR UNDERWOOD, SAMUEL
JACKSON, CHRIS ROCK ALL MARRIED STRONG BLACK WOMEN. AND TO FLIP THE
SCRIPT, THERE ARE NUMEROUS WHITE MEN IN AND OUT OF THE SPOT LIGHT, WHO
OPENLY OR SECRETLY DESIRE BLACK WOMEN OVER WHITE WOMEN. TED DANSON,
ROBERT DENIRO, DAVID BOWIE JUST TO NAME A FEW.

I JUST DON'T WANT DISGUSTED WHITE GIRL TO BE MISINFORMED. STOP THINKING
BECAUSE YOU ARE WHITE YOU ARE SOME TYPE OF GODDESS. REMEMBER WHEN BLACK
EGYPTIAN QUEENS LIKE HATSHEPSUT AND NITORCRIS WERE RULING DYNASTIES AND
ARMIES OF MEN IN EGYPT, YOU WERE OVER IN THE CAVES OF EUROPE EATING RAW
MEAT AND BEATING EACH OTHER OVER THE HEAD WITH CLUBS. READ YOUR
HISTORY, IT WAS THE BLACK WOMAN THAT TAUGHT YOU HOW TO COOK AND SEASON
YOUR FOOD. IT WAS THE BLACK WOMAN THAT TAUGHT YOU HOW TO RAISE YOUR
CHILDREN. IT WAS THE BLACK WOMAN WHO WERE BREAST FEEDING AND RAISING
BABIES DURING SLAVERY. IT WAS THE BLACK WOMAN THAT ENDURED WATCHING
THEIR FATHERS, HUSBANDS AND CHILDREN BEATEN, KILLED AND THROWN IN JAIL.
BLACK WOMEN WERE BORN WITH TWO STRIKES AGAINST THEM: BEING BLACK AND
BEING A WOMEN. AND THROUGH ALL THIS, STILL THEY RISE!

IT IS BECAUSE OF THE BLACK WOMEN'S STRENGTH, ELEGANCE, POWER, LOVE AND
BEAUTY THAT I COULD NEVER DATE ANYONE EXCEPT MY BLACK QUEEN. IT IS NOT
JUST THE OUTER BEAUTY THAT CAPTIVATES AND DRAWS ME TO THEM. IT IS NOT
THE FACT THAT THEY COME IN ALL SHAPES, SIZES, COLORS AND SHADES THAT I
LOVE THEM. THEIR INNER BEAUTY IS WHAT I FIND MOST APPEALING ABOUT THEM.
THEIR STRONG SPIRIT, LOVING AND NURTURING SOULS, THEIR INTEGRITY, THEIR
ABILITY TO OVERCOME GREAT OBSTACLES, THEIR WILLINGNESS TO STAND FOR
WHAT THEY BELIEVE IN, AND THEIR DETERMINATION TO SUCCEED AND REACH
THEIR HIGHEST POTENTIAL WHILE ENDURING GREAT PAIN AND SUFFERING, IS WHY
I HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH BLACK WOMEN.

I HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT YOUR ANGER IS GEARED MORE TOWARD JEALOUSY AND
ENVY, THAN SNOTTY LOOKS. IF THIS WERE NOT SO, THEN WHY DO YOU
CONTINUOUSLY GO TANNING SALONS TO DARKEN YOUR SKIN? IF YOU ARE SO PROUD
TO BE WHITE, THEN WHY DON'T YOU JUST BE HAPPY WITH YOUR PALE SKIN? WHY
DO YOU CONTINUE TO INJECT YOUR LIPS, HIPS AND BREAST WITH UNNATURAL AND
DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES SO YOU CAN LOOK FULLER AND MORE VOLUPTUOUS? I
THINK THAT YOUR ANGER IS REALLY A RESULT OF YOU WANTING TO HAVE WHAT
BLACK WOMEN HAS.

BOTTOM LINE: IF I WAS LOOKING FOR A DOCILE WOMAN; SOMEONE I CAN WALK
OVER AND CONTROL, I WOULD GIVE YOU A CALL. BUT UNFORTUNATELY, I AM
LOOKING FOR A VIRTUOUS WOMAN. SOMEONE THAT CAN BE A GOOD WIFE AND
MOTHER TO MY CHILDREN. SOMEONE WHO CAN BE MY BEST FRIEND AND UNDERSTAND
MY STRUGGLES. I AM LOOKING FOR A SOUL MATE. I AM LOOKING FOR A SISTER
AND UNFORTUNATELY YOU DO NOT FIT THE BILL. I GUESS YOU ARE JUST S.O.L.
NO OFFENSE TAKEN, NONE GIVEN.

BLACK ROYALTY...MR DARRELL LIGE

As badly as I wanted to respond to the completely biased and disillusioned opinion of “Why black men date white women?” I wanted to commend you for “Educating the Angry white girl”. Everyday I thank God for blessing me with the color of my skin, the heritage of my forefathers, the shape and form of my figure, and the strength that lies within. I am who I am because of the millions of Beautiful Black women who have preceded me. It is irrelevant, which black actors date white women or which ones married one. What is truly sad and unfortunate is that her man only valid reason for dating her because "the pickings amongst black women were slim to none" and NOT BE BECAUSE HE LOVED AND CHERISHED HER ABOVE ALL OTHERS. It is truly sad when a brother can only love a woman (white or other) ONLY another after finding fault within his own. In truth his problem is not with black women but with being BLACK himself and that is a bigger issue than I’d care to address.
