[00:00:00]Some choose symbolism.

[00:00:02]Some choose access. [music] Some choose what they thought made them look more successful.

[00:00:09]And some black [music] men did not date outside their race because they found peace.

[00:00:15]Some date outside because they think being chosen by whiteness upgrades their image.

[00:00:21]That's not love.

[00:00:23]That's insecurity wearing a passport stamp.

[00:00:26]>> [music] >> We're not doing that childish math here.

[00:00:30]White woman good, black woman bad. That is lazy.

[00:00:34]Lazy. Lazy.

[00:00:37]>> [music] >> But we cannot also ignore what some men are actually saying.

[00:00:42]A lot of black men are not saying other races of women are better.

[00:00:47]They are saying other races of women sometimes make them feel less pre-rejected.

[00:00:54]That is the wound.

[00:00:56]Some black men feel like women on the outside see the man first.

[00:01:02]While some black women see the risk first.

[00:01:06]They feel less cross-examined.

[00:01:09]Less prejudged. Less punished for still becoming. [music] Less interrogated before connection can even form.

[00:01:18]A man may not be choosing outside his race because he hates black women.

[00:01:24]Sometimes he is choosing the place where he feels less like a defendant in the dating process.

[00:01:31]That line matters.

[00:01:33]Because a man wants peace, doesn't he?

[00:01:36]>> [music] >> A man wants respect. A man wants someone who can see his direction before the world sees his results.
