Racial Role-Play and Black Women's Divestment From Dating Black Men

Think about this shit.

So I used to mess with this Black chick,

fine as hell, bad,

bad, bump to my super bad.

Freakier than a motherfucker.

And we still communicate to this day.

We just, you know, she do her

thing. I don't-- we don't have sex no more.

But, um,

she told me, "Oh, I wanna role play.

I want you to call me the N word."

I said, "Listen, I'm down

to do a lot of shit,

but I don't feel comfortable do-- I

don't say, I don't do that.

I'm not on that." I don't feel

comfortable.

She was on some real weird

shit on like, "Yeah, I'm your

slave."

"I'm your sl..." What ha- Yeah, like that.

"I'm your slave, and

you the master," type shit.

I said, "Man, listen, I can be, uh,

I can be a lot of shit, but that, I'm not

gonna feel comfortable in that thing and having to call you that.

That ain't what I'm... I can't do that."

That shit was crazy. I just had to share

that shit with a motherfucker.

flag COVID mask over your face.

Talk about that another time. But go ahead.

Please explain to us what, what divesting means.

Oh, it's just

abandoning all Black male

identified

ideology, abandoning the idea of Black love.

Like-

Yeah. Just cutting all that out. That's like, that's, that's BS.

Um, for me, it's just

not dating Black men, um,

because

it, it's a, it's-- if

you're entertaining Black men at this

point in time, it's

kinda like a distraction

from the bigger picture.

And the bigger picture is what?

Black women coming together in

sisterhood the way that we're doing.

And it's, it's, it's, it's a growing

community, and I love it.

Um, so-

And what's, what's the, what do you think the end outcome of

that's gonna be?

What's your end goal?

Black women putting themselves first.

Putting themselves first.

Um, instead of having all these outwed, wedlock babies with all these Black
