We live in a white dominated country (America), which means that whites are the highest populated, so therefore they control all the powerful institutions, including mainstream media. Since they have so much control over everything, they have the power to discriminate and be racist not just socially, but institutionally and politically. They control mainstream media (there are more whites in hollywood than any other race) which explains why whites are MOSTLY shown as superheros, saviors, good people, innocent, etc while minorities, especially black minorities are always shown as "thiefs" "crooks" "thugs" etc. Mexicans are mostly shown as dirty short people who cant speak proper english. Asians are shown as dorky people with no friends. Although all people of color are shown negatively (well mostly all), I do believe that blacks are shown worse.
Please dont feel like being a black woman is a curse because its not. Black women are beautiful, especially the brown complected ones, and this is coming from a light skinned chick. Black women are strong, independent, and like Jarrod said, we have the perfect bodies. Hell, these people on this site constantly ask questions like "why do black women have the nicest bodies" or "why do black women have full lips and big butts" just google those questions, and youll see that MILLIONS of them were asked on this site and other sites as well. Please dont let the media brainwash you into think black men arent attracted to us, thats not true. Sure there are some black men that dont prefer their race (there are many men that dont prefer their race, not just some of the guys in our race), but there are many more who do. And although the media makes it seems like black men dont desire black women, they do. The media tend to put more hype and publicity towards the few black men that date whites and non black women more than than the famous black men that do, and trust me there are more black men in hollywood married to black women than other women. Just like every race of men, black men tend to be more attracted to the women in their own race. also, please dont think all because a black man is dating a white women that he doesnt like the women in his own race. Unlike black women, black men are just more open to interracial dating, and if they happen to fall inlove or like someone who isnt black, they are going to be with them, doesnt mean they desire black women any less. Do not let the media, which is controlled by whites, bring you down. Im sure you are a strong beautiful black queen :) black women are also the most enrolled in college
