Do Black Men Avoid Dark Skinned Women... Nala's Song Controversy

So what? You would rather segregate each other more? We should be happy people are coming together

This is only a Black British thing, Grenadians, Jamaicans and Africans in the uk, by and large, have children with their black women counterparts.
Unless the video was framed as a 'Black family gathering,' then let them continue.

Ironically, in the white community it's tanned skin that's worshipped. The grass is always greener.

I agree. Someone that is light skinned is black with a lighter complexion Mixed race is mixed race not light skinned. The Caribbean community is very mixed now and it is what it is. I don’t know why BW care what BM do or with who.

I'm just going to need people to stop blaming slavery that no one alive ever endured but over the last 80 years in the UK we've seen black males create the biggest half black population in history, transfer wealth they've acquired to the white community, and introduce a colour caste system within the black community via bringing in their mixed race children and biracial girlfriends rather than building something for them given their are so many of them. Black males did all of that in the last 80 years so we shouldn't tolerate hearing deflections because of sLaVeRy, and what they're not able to do because of racism, because they've been doing alot.

off the video, it's noticeable. But then when you look at NORMAL black relationships, it's plenty of dark skinned women wifed

can't police people's preferences. I'm average height & make average wage. That would be like me being annoyed that women prefer 6ft+ guys who makes 6 figures.

As a black man, I definitely have love for black women. But I gotta be honest, there's mixed messaging that comes from them. One on hand they uplift themselves (which's fine) & sometimes go to the point of saying bm aren't needed/ we're some sort of burden. But then on the other hand, they'll say "black men don't protect black women". Do you want us on your side or no? And if they want us on their side, it's probably not a good idea to kick our heads in

Last week I brought my 11 year old daughter to a Birthday party, she was the only full black child, all the rest were mixed, it wasn't a problem until the YT mother's made her feel excluded then I noticed all the mixed little girls excluding her from games and making jokes ? I just cut , wont see her again , these little girls cleary made her feel like a outsider, learnt behaviour from the mother's, it is what it is good call out !

Bring back natural black woman , bare maintenance now , every thing fake asl

Is preference for light skin versus dark skin a form of colorism?

For everyone in denial about a “preference for light skin” the FACTS indicate:

Yes, a preference for light skin over dark skin is indeed a form of colorism. Colorism refers to the social and cultural bias that privileges lighter skin tones over darker ones, often within the same racial or ethnic group. This preference can manifest in various ways, including:

1. **Beauty Standards**: Many societies promote lighter skin as more desirable, leading to the idealization of light-skinned individuals in media, fashion, and beauty industries.

2. **Social Hierarchies**: Colorism can create social stratifications where individuals with lighter skin may receive preferential treatment in areas such as employment, education, and social interactions.

3. **Internalized Racism**: Individuals within marginalized communities may internalize these biases, leading to feelings of inferiority among those with darker skin tones and a desire to conform to lighter skin ideals.

4. **Cultural Implications**: Colorism can impact relationships, self-esteem, and identity, contributing to divisions within communities and perpetuating stereotypes.

5. **Historical Context**: The roots of colorism are often tied to colonialism, slavery, and systemic racism, where lighter skin was associated with privilege and power, while darker skin was linked to oppression and subjugation.

Addressing colorism requires challenging societal beliefs and norms surrounding skin tone, promoting inclusivity, and celebrating the beauty and diversity of all skin colors.

Shiiii, I guess I’m a radical feminist! I need to change, I blame the father who was a tyrant who ruled us with a rod of iron. I’m so sorry, wow talk about a wake up call. And I have a son! 😓

Bro u ah simping to the highest level of the lords

'Most men marry the beauty, while most women marry the lifestyle.'
It is what it is.
⚠️
Unfortunately for UDSBW (Unambiguous Dark Skin Black Women) it's quite the opposite : in order to marry "attractive" partners (with "good hair" and "fair skin") they must become "providers".

😂British Dr Umar pandering hard.

All sellouts they don't like dark skin women

Let it be, so what if I like light skins. What you gonna do about it😂

I mean I expect this with dudes from London as a black American . It’s not as many black people in the uk as America is it? In America when a person heads to the Midwest it’s alot of mixed people because of the demographics.

To black men If that's what makes you happy to be married to women who's going to love you and respect you more power to you

Black women do not know how to treat black men. That's why black men mary outside of their race so that black man. Could have peace in his life

I guess it must be eye opening for a white person to see how much black people argue with each other over being with them as preferences.
Not Chinese, Asian, or other Black people etc, but THEM.

as a black man i like black women but also white. The problem is black celebrities, artists, footballers etc prefer white or light skin which I don't think its to do with internalised racism but I guess unfortunately white/light skin women are high status so they 'pick' the best.

Ofc as a black women you'd wonder why. I reckon this will only change when black women status in society increase because they are lots of beautiful black women but white/light skin are more prevalent.

This has been noticable,
for years.

Interesting channel. Why the mask though fam? Are you that clapped? 😮

Yeah true some scrape the bottom of the barrel, but if you ain't got no class don't expect nothing better regardless of the race, because same could be said for gal that get wid pure waste man who ain't doing nothing for the community but fuckry, yeah it's that bottom of the barrel shit same way

Why cant a man love his mom and date a women not like his mom. A man dosent have to deal with his mom everyday. A man can love his mom and not want a women like her.

No matter what black men do they’re wrong. A black man has a family and loves and takes care of his children. Write songs about them and show them off to the world. Guess what. Black men are still wrong.

I know plenty of dark skin mixed baby. And mixed children with black men/women. Just come to Hackney. I'm black my daughter father is white. My daughter husband is Jamaican. Please.

It’s not so much the kids as it is black fathers. If it was black women with their light/mixed kids there would be no uproar!

A lot of black women dismiss mixed people (especially the females of any age) if their mother isn’t black! It’s ridiculous!

Idrc but I don’t really see little DARK SKIN black girls be cherished and loved by their fathers this way…

Sisters, don’t worry about bm’s self hate. Find a man who loves you and treats you well but, don’t support those who don’t support you.

weird patterns with urban UK artists ,its so in your face its hard to ignore, should have have just changed the lyrics to i love my mixed children and kept it pushing . No doubt these men will want their daughters to date black , the video (mostly) sends the message that black men can only be fathers to non black children (for the 1 droppers : i am not talking about how people identify/what racial side they're on, i am speaking about 2 black parent BLACK children specifically) and not children that share their actual features/heritage. NO i do not think that's true, but that is what the message in THAT video with those particular men convey.

My issue is with the thumbnail: the lighter skinned mixed race looking bro is holding a child of very similar skin tone, hair texture etc.

While I ultimately think consenting adults of whatever skin tone can date if they want to:

I see where you’re going with the darker bros, but we lighter skinned bros have nothing to do with this.

My mama was about Meghan Markel’s skin tone, my wife is fair skinned, and my children are lighter skinned as well.

Darker skinned people need to have this conversation amongst themselves and leave us lighter bros out of it! 😂

And? What sort of men are black women chasing in their 20s, both in the UK and the US? Start there, because this conversation complaining about who we choose is completely redundant.

Alexa play… Dave black

And the women complaining have dark skinned black fathers. But they are not rich rappers so they don’t count. When they complain about black men not being with black women it’s seems their own fathers don’t seem to count in the conversation. Why is that? These miserable women complaining about that video don’t like the dark skinned black men that like them. Let’s have that conversation.

The majority of the children are light skinned Griffes or light skinned Sacatras. Griffes and Sacatras can be brown skinned or dark skinned, and still have partial mixed ancestry. Question, why are the Afro-Caribbean children promoted and showcased in the media have to have some type of direct mix or direct admix? Is this not another mixed race agenda? The preferred new Black especially for Afro-Caribbeans, whether they be light skinned, brown skinned or dark skinned are mixed/admixed????
You telling me most Afro-Caribbeans as well as West Africans have a grandparent or even great grandparent of another ethnicity? Or of mixed race?
See the agenda...
It's all an agenda designed by the elite.

Can't we just focus on a generation of black fathers that are breaking stereotypes that plauged the older generation of the black british carribean community. Regardless of skin colour, those children will be better off for having present fathers. People need to focus on their own lives.

In america the NBA draft had all light skin men on the team, black men got so mad that the NBA team is now light skin.... Black women are like uuuuuhhh yall are creating them lol, how you going to get mad at something you are creating? lol

All I see is black men loving on their children …THEIR children, light skinded children are still black…if most of those kids were dark skinded …it would be all kinds of praises, whenever blk women have their preferences…ie tall, dark skin, or WHITE…it’s all smiles and Yasssss Girl but when blk men do it’s a colorist issue…blk men date or marry whoever you choose too that makes you happy, I said what I said and I’m not responding to no bs comments …Period

Lightskn men shouldn't be a part of this. If a Lightskn BM is with a lightskn BW, he's with the womn that looks like him or his mother- plus it seens like the majority of BW have made it clear that they don't want lightskn BM. Darkskn BM on the other hand bash their female counterparts - and chase lightskn womn the most.

NO. BLACK WOMEN AVOID DARK-SKINNED, MEN ! SINCE, FOREVER !

Black men don’t love themselves. If you love black women then you would be with one. They want to erase their DNA. They gaslight dark skinned black women to make it seem like its preference but I know it’s not that. Let them go and don’t fight for them. I wish black women with a black mother and father would stop talking about them and leave them alone. Don’t even look their way.
