Chapter 1: What does it mean to be 'pro-Black' in today's society?

0.031 - 22.962 Amala Ekpunobi

Here's a new one on the woke left. If you want to be pro black, you have to be dating a black person. I'm tired. Let's talk about it. Guys, before we get into today's video, please like and subscribe. I'm going to be talking about a topic that's been coming across my feed quite a bit in the past few days.

23.383 - 46.896 Amala Ekpunobi

And that's if you want to be a pro-black black person, you have to be in a relationship with a black person. No interracial dating. No mixing up the gene pool, okay? Because pro-black means pro-black all the way. We're going to head to a TikTok. And this has over 100,000 likes on it. Just so you know how far and wide this idea is going.

46.876 - 57.492

Hey, so real quick, you are not pro-Black unless you as a Black person look to your left and look to your right and your spouse is Black. You understand what I'm saying? I don't understand why that's such a hard concept to understand.

0

57.873 - 72.015

You know, you as a Black person have a Black experience and you as a Black person, they internationally can be an ally to a pro-Black couple, but you yourself do not have a day-to-day, you know, pro-Black lifestyle.

Chapter 2: Why are some TikTokers claiming interracial dating contradicts pro-Black identity?

72.275 - 91.362 Amala Ekpunobi

I have to say this every time we make a video about this. How about saying that about any other race? Just think about it. Maybe try to utter the words out of your mouth and listen to how that sounds. You are not pro-white unless you're in a relationship with a white person. You're not pro-Asian unless you're in a relationship with an Asian person.

0

91.342 - 113.031 Amala Ekpunobi

We typically call this a segregated mindset, okay? You think everybody needs to be segregated into little sections in order to be supporting people of their racial background. Typically, we would call that a no-no. And we would say, allow everybody to date who it is they want to date.

113.371 - 138.248 Amala Ekpunobi

And it's just insane to me to think that you couldn't somehow still be pro-Black while dating a non-Black person. And I think if we go all throughout history at some of the Black activists that many of these people would pedestalize in their own activism, you're going to find that many of them were not dating or married to other Black people. But we'll get to that in just a moment.

0

138.709 - 154.913

So I don't understand, again, why that's such a hard concept to grab. No, you should not be at the table with us when it comes down to Black people voting. No, because you will have some type of biases. You are not to be trusted when it comes down to, you know, the Black majority vote and things of that nature.

0

155.045 - 174.752 Amala Ekpunobi

Okay, you are not to be trusted because you found some sort of love or compatibility with somebody of a differing race, which happens all the time and should happen because guess what? We're all just human beings at the end of the day. But no, these individuals would like you to be relegated and placed in a box based off of your skin tone.

Chapter 3: What examples support the argument against the 'no interracial dating' stance?

175.253 - 195.936 Amala Ekpunobi

What do we call that? It's so crazy that a lot of the times when you're hearing these woke left arguments that are supposed to be so progressive, so anti-racist, so tolerant, it sounds a lot like the Jim Crow South. It sounds a lot like segregation. It sounds a lot like you believe in something like black supremacy.

0

196.476 - 204.745 Amala Ekpunobi

And they've been trying to beat these allegations for quite some time, but the more and more I hear, the more I'm hearing black supremacy.

0

204.725 - 212.494

And you have to understand that. You know what I'm saying? Nobody's telling you not to date interracially. Nobody's telling you, you know, that it's a bad thing.

0

212.514 - 233.837 Amala Ekpunobi

Nobody's telling you not to date interracially. Okay, I'm just saying that if you do, you're sort of out of the camp, right? You can't really vote with other Black people. You're not really invited to the table with other Black people. And you're certainly not pro-Black. But I'm not telling you don't date a white person or an Asian person or a Hispanic person. No, I would never say that.

0

233.817 - 249.211

I'm just telling you, when it comes down to Black decisions, we're gonna question you. You understand what I'm saying? We're gonna question your motives because there are raccoons out here and they love to tap dance. You understand what I'm saying? So yeah, no, you're not pro-Black.

249.291 - 262.963 Amala Ekpunobi

There are raccoons out here. I've been called a coon on many an occasion. It has not stopped. It will not stop. But I find it so interesting that we can even use phrases like Black decisions. What is a Black decision?

262.943 - 290.689 Amala Ekpunobi

Can somebody please define that for me in the comments down below and preferably somebody who is pro-black and I guess if you're pro-black you also have to be dating a black person so make sure you hit all those markers and then describe to me what a black decision is because these are the same people that will tell you that black people do not function as a monolith they're not all making one decision they don't all have one mindset and then they'll make another video talking about what a black decision is

290.669 - 314.527 Amala Ekpunobi

or what it means to be pro-Black, even though I guess that could show up in a ton of different forms. There is so much contradiction, so much cognitive dissonance in this particular group that most of what you hear, you just can't take all that seriously. And just for a moment, I'm going to go back to an older point that I made and say a few names. Maya Angelou, okay?

314.907 - 337.238 Amala Ekpunobi

Frederick Douglass, Nikki Giovanni. These are all Black activists, Black artists, Black creators, people who have contributed to Black culture in a way that many of these Blacktivists would pedestalize. And if you look through their dating history and their marriage history, guess what? They were not with other Black people.
