WHY BLACK MEN
Love
WHITE WOMEN
There
is no escaping it, the Black men with white women phenomenon
never seems to end, and it often appears to be exacerbated by
the most celebrated Black men continually choosing white women.
Michael Jordan almost went through a divorce because of reported
infidelity with a white woman. Bryant Gumbel was going through
a divorce while dating a white woman whom he later married, and
Tiger Woods was busted dating a white nanny. Then there is Kobe.
Next to a loss of life, this may be the highest price paid by
a Black man for caucasian copulation. Taken at face value it
would appear that I am consumed with the race of women that prominent
Black men are choosing. I am not.
What has partially consumed me is
the reaction I get from Black women all around the country concerning
this matter. Over the years, it has just been a casual, but spirited,
discussion that has illuminated some ideas and crystallized some
previous thoughts. A recent encounter changed all that. I was
drawn into a conversation concerning Black men and their white
girlfriends by one of the brightest women I know. She is well
educated - holding
undergraduate and graduate degrees from two of the best institutions
in the world. Quite a solid debater and a keen observer of society,
yet she was still puzzled by the “enormous” appetite that Black
men have for white women. She wanted answers, real answers and
she wanted them now. She also said that she “wanted it from a
Black man not from the bitter bitches at the beauty shop.” Four
hours later she thanked me and told me that she finally understood.
It still bothers her a bit but she is a lot more easy with it
than before.
This book is a more organized and
condensed form of that conversation. I have come to the conclusion
that all Black women are affected when they see a white woman
with a Black man. Many will not admit it but it does bother them
to some degree. The conclusions drawn in this book come from
years of experience in observing and dealing with Black men and
their desires. If you are looking for scholarly empirical data
you will not find much of it here. I did not do control studies
nor did I conduct statistical analysis to support my ideas. On
the contrary, it has been my observation that when one conducts
interviews on sensitive issues such as sex and race, almost everyone
lies. Not that I haven't tried - I did conduct interviews which were mostly defensive.
Having dealt with Brothers in school,
on comedy tours, in night clubs and various other social gatherings,
I came to the conclusion that my informal conversations were
more accurate than a prepared interview. For example, often when
I asked the average Black man who was married to a white woman
to talk to me about his choice, he proudly responded with something
like: “I loved her, she swept me off my feet, we were soul mates,
she is good to me, I don't see color” or some other moralistic
hokey shit. Generally when I asked the same question to a white
guy about his white wife or a Black guy about his Black wife
it is usually: “We've been together since high school, we were
dating for long time, we moved in together -next thing we had
a kid and we just said hell let’s get married.”
For couples of the same race, it usually
some regular explanation rather than some political sound bite.
The answers differed a bit if the woman was there, but for the
same race couples it was casual, raw and humorous. If the white
woman was there with the Black man then a philosophical defensive
discussion ensues. Often times it appeared that they were trying
to justify the union rather than answer the question. In short,
I wound up with a good deal of false positives.
Hence a scientific work this is not.
However, if you would like an interesting insightful analysis
of Why Black Men Love White Women then read
on. This book will illuminate some ideas, crystallize many of
your own thoughts as well as promote spirited discussions. It
will also answer questions and force you to look at the sexual
world around you quite differently. You will certainly never
look at a Black man and his white woman the same way after reading
this book.

Making
It Through College
While
education is the most important investment one can make in any
life, it still appears to be treated casual casualty in the lives
of many of our youngsters.
RaJen was a victim of the public school system. For him " high school
was a joke".
He was able to gain entrance in to an Ivy League school even though he graduated
with a D average.
RaJen
had dramatically turned his academic past around in junior college
and made the Dean's List for the first time in his life. He was
later accepted to several of the top schools in the country.He
took failure and turned it into success and he believes any one
with the right information can do the same. Bad grades, poor
SAT scores or even dropping out should not keep anyone out of
the running for a college degree from even the best schools.
Millions have turn thier lives around and became competitive
intellects in our society. Its not over because you failed an
exam, got left back, or even dropped out.
Making It through College provides the answers for success in college and beyond.
Thousands
of students young and old have used this book and its information
to better themselves, earn more money, and become a productive
part of our society.
This
book is a life changing experience.We hope you would also purchase
this book and make an investment, if not in your life, someone
elses life. All of us know some one who could use that little
push to catapult them from inactivity to pro-activity and productivity.
