Interesting perspective on analyzing Black intellectuals, such as Diop, who fell victim to bedroom colonialism

Interesting he gives a critique on relationships between black men and black (albeit true) but himself sees women as sex “cookies” and such.

Umar Johnson panders and strokes the egos of Black women. Black women LOOOOVE Dr. Umar Johnson, especially Black women who date and marry white men.

@Kwabena Ofori Osei: I do understand why he focuses of the black male victims of bedroom colonialism, given the 2:1 ration (in comparison to women), but this also reflects a lack of the global dynamics of this problem, When I was compromised into visiting paris, I noticed that both men and women were relatively lower gap. So there is a general incompleteness in his analysis of the issue

Majority of our post- independence presidents in Africa were married to white women; and even today some African presidents are still married to white women.

I know there are 'notable' leaders of flag independence who did, but the majority? I did not know that

@T. Y. Adodo: You right “notable” flag independence president had white wives. But that does not excuse their actions for marrying the mothers of the same same white men who colonized them.

I was listening to a podcast of a so-called “Pan-Africanist” a “Pro-Blackity Black Pan-Africanist” say that Chiekh Anta Diop needed to marry a white woman so that she could open doors for him to advance his career so that he could achieve all of the great works and accomplishments that he was able to achieve and accomplish during his lifetime.

“Chiekh Anta Diop needed a white woman by his side to open doors for him in the racist field of Egyptology and other racist anthropological fields controlled by racist white Europeans.
A Black woman could not have gone into the exclusive prestigious rooms that white men will allow a white woman to go into. Chiekh Anta Diop could not have accomplished the great intellectual works if he had a Black woman on his arms. Chiekh Anta Diop needed a white woman on his arms to open doors for him so that he could accomplished the great works he was able to achieve in his lifetime.”

The excuses Black people give for those Black people among us who marry outside the Great Black race is astonishing.

Another example is Harry Belafonte, the so-called Civil Rights Leader in America.
Harry Belafonte told Black women: “I cannot be with a black woman, because Black women can not advance my career.”

Harry Belafonte did not see the value, honor and beauty in Black women; and in all his life, Harry Belafonte chased and hunted for white women because he believed white women were more beautiful than Black women, white women were better than Black women and white women are the only ones who can advanced his career in his pursuit of fame, money, fortune and prestige in the film and music industry controlled by white men, particularly white Jewish men. And yet in America and in the Caribbeans, Harry Belafonte is celebrated, praised and promoted as some kind of a Civil Rights hero and Civil Rights leader for whom our young Black boys should follow and emulate.

We can see the fruits of Harry Belafonte anti-Black women beliefs and indoctrination because ALL of Harry Belafonte children are biracial mulatto children from white women.

I have problem with this mentality that 'you can do for black people and still be with (w.e. non-black)'. It shows our general lack of understanding (or perhaps interest) in basic aspect of racial preservation

It reminds of how, as i mentioned when talking about bob marley, just because he says 'African Unity' or 'Fight for Rights', that somehow excuses his expressed dual allegiance and, worse, his betrayal of Rita Marley for a krakkka simply because he did 'some good things'...I am thinking of those who ought to know better.

@Babasola Adejola: what do you mean by 'racist' as it pertains to Belafonte? (Clarification question)
