Can you be "woke" and date white people?

Isn't this a contradiction though? Like you understand the plight of black people yet your mate doesn't? Or rather can't relate?

I don't think it's a contradiction. As some have said on here "love is organic" and shit like that. So with that said people excuse or purposefully over look things in their loved ones. So a black person can easily be woke and date a white person who is not aware or have an understanding of the plight of black people. The white person can easily not relate because they're not dealing with any of that in their lives, family or friends lives. They can hear about through the person they're in a relationship with not relate cause they never have to deal with it.

Ex: Kim Kardashian years ago said she never thought about the shit black people go through until she had a black child.

So in other words for years she in relationships and fucking black men but never gave a fuck about what them or black people were going through racially in this country.

Another possible example even though we don't have the details of the conversations. Eve and her husband with Eve coming and saying they're having some of the most difficult conversations they've ever had or something to that affect.
 
i think i see the point your'e trying to make, but i wouldn't have used Kim K as an example to drive that point home, but i dont want that to take away from your overall message

What are your thoughts on the media portraying strong and outspoken pro black women of color on shows/movies but their lovers end up being white men? And these relationships are portrayed as unhealthy because they're hidden initially by the black woman. (References to what I'm discussing include Sam from Dear White People, Nova from Queen Sugar and on a less overt scale, Olivia Pope from Scandal. I'll leave Annalise out of this one).

My wife is white and I'm Dominican. I know my heritage and where I come from. As African slaves were taken to my land, so there is a very high percent chance that I have African roots. Dating a white woman would never make me turn my back on the struggle or dismiss racist shit and she better be on point w it too, or we will inevitably have issues in the household that go beyond marriage.

Now will their message hit the same..............I'm going to have to say no.

A black person looks funny in the light preaching black love, unity, family, etc but in a relationship with a white person.

Exactly.


You can be woke.............conscious..........pro-black.............HOTEP..........or whatever you wanna call it.


However, right or wrong, your credibility is always going to be called into question to some degree if you date outside your race.

Kim K's actually the perfect example.


There's definitely an argument to be made that she's done a lot more for black people than many other so-called black celebrities.
 


This answer all of you guys questions right here. Because how you going to be so called woke and date the group of people who have done horrible things to your ancestors, great grandparents, and now currently they have shown you they still haven't change and will never change.
 
It depends on the black males intention because he's supposed to be the head of the household. Some black revolutionaries thought its best to fight fire with fire by having a second wife that was white and using her for their advantage while maintaining a black house hold with the first black wife. If it worked back then why not now?
 




Everyday these people keep showing you guys who they really are. But we still on some, you cant help who you love, God is the only one that's knows their heart, and all white people are not bad. After 400 plus some years hasn't they shown you that they will never changes and dont give a fuck about you, your children, family, and everyone else that you know and love.
