Black people aren't going anywhere. People seem to forget Africa,Brazil and Europe are chock full of us. Also,the rule that says one drop means mixed and half means BLACK is still being vigorously enforced and practiced.
Who is this person? I've never heard of him. As long as he doesn't start saying the EVIL BLACK WOMAN drove him to Asian women,have at it,sir.

He's an actor, rapper, writer, & producer. He's currently on the hit show "Community" on NBC. He raps under the name "Childhood Gambino" & does some stand up comedy (check Youtube for that). He's also the only black writer for another hit show "30 Rock".

he looks full black to me. his bio mentions no asian. also, i don't let racist one drop rules affect what i see as black. i don't know why we try to hold onto those rules. they only hurt us.
i'm sitting here trying to figure out how bm and aw are ideal mates and i feel so racist lol. i'm matching up all the stereotypes in my head.

I really really like his music and like somebody else said as long as he doesn't publicly degrade or demean black women i'm completely fine with him liking whoever he likes.

i'll probably regret even saying this on here...but my observations over the years tells me that a lot (not all or even most...but a lot) of black men need constant validation/coddling in order to feel good about themselves. constant.
i think a lot of black women see that as a weakness and don't really care to invest in the constant coddling that a lot (not all) black men demand in order to feel fulfilled.
i think a lot of non-black, particularly asian (not all) women have more of a capacity to want to engage in this sort of constant catering.
tom leyakis used to tell his male radio listeners to target foreign-born women OR women who were raised by foreign-born mothers...primarily asian women. he told them that these sort of women were often bred to want to cater to their men at any cost.
i can go further but i'll stop there.
but when i hear a black man say that black men are probably more made to be with asian women, i think, "well hell! maybe they are right!?"
i have asian female friends that will put up with almost any shit just to say they have a white man. i think that often (not always) also applies to them being with black men.
I never liked his music. My little brother loves him though. I remember driving somewhere together and he puts in one of his Childish Gambino CDs and all he rapped about was white and asian chicks, and getting picked on when he was younger.

i agree with you. it's like...who cares? is he really anyone that a lot of black women would be checking for anyway? i doubt it.
because of where i work i see him quite a bit. he's truly non-descript and someone you would never look at twice.
let him be with who his little azz wants to be with. the fact that he thinks it's "political" to be with women of your own race is odd and says a lot about his level of thinking. let him go.
That's the problem. He talks about how black kids ignored and mistreated him growing up. It is funny how a lot (not all) of black women will call a guy a "nerd" or "lame" and then get upset when he decides to date outside of his race.
I love his music and I don't care who he dates. As long as he is happy, I'm happy.
Girl, but why can't the African ancestors get some shine every once in awhile?
Black people come out with almond shaped eyes and an epicanthic eye folks and they are quick to claim it's the no-existent Asian in them, instead of claiming it for their West African ancestors.
Ish is annoying as fuck, especially considering that only a very small percentage of Blacks in America have Asian blood.
Why is it when a black man dates out of his race all of a sudden he is the type of man a black woman wouldn't want?
Anyway I think he's a nice guy a tad on the corny side. He tried more than hard to get at my sister.
Not only this, but I'm not even going to touch some of the stereotypes up in this thread. . .and not the stereotypes about eyes.
I always wonder if people know when they are spewing stereotypes.
As for him dating out, who cares.
However, I hate when people use the excuse of "oh, Black people weren't feeling me when I was younger". It's like, dude, get the fuck over it. A lot of us grew up this way.
My siblings and I went to schools where we were almost the only Black kids. When we came across other Black kids, yes, some of them weren't feeling us because we were different or "oreos". However, that ish is in the past. We grew up, met other Black folks, and got over it. Life isn't perfect and easy for anyone.
I couldn't imagine walking around with a chip on my shoulder based on some ish that happened to me in junior high or high school...or letting high school/junior high students from my past shaping how I live my life now.
He's not mixed with Asian. . .he's mixed with Black and negro.
People can be so accidentally racist. Why do people think he's mixed with Asian? Because of his eyes?
FYI epicanthic eye folds and slanted/almond shaped eyes are a trait of many tribes in West Africa.
Very true, they do the same thing on youtube with those two twins from Jamaica asking if they're half Asian and they have to tell them no we're black. My family is full of it, my Aunt got teased in school and all lol.

Really? It's black men that need validation? You really went there? When will you be bringing your comedy act to NY? You are funny as hell. Talk about psychological projection on a IMAX level, in full 3D.
And I could of sworn you are part of the IR brigade I see in some of these IR threads in regards to black women and white men like a dutiful dog ready to get at anyone that might say anything negative, or to spin your tales of how much the white men love black women and black women just need to come to the light or a bar filled with them.
Forgive me if I was mistaken though as I bet you just l.o.v.e you some black men. My 20 something y/o emotions sometimes just get away from me and I need constant coddling and positive reinforcements. That's why I joined LSA. No one wants us but the prison system Judy. It hurts, it really does. Please tell me you like black men Judy...please. I wont feel good about myself unless you do.
