LOL @ Alicia and whoever the video director is for trying to perpetrate this fraudulent illusion that black males actually give that much of a damn about white guys dating sistas. Yes, there are SOME, but not nearly enough to warrant the attention that white males try to make it out to be.
I laugh at any attempts of white males trying to create an illusion of "reverse racism" in a white dominated society. What was even funnier was the "lone white guy vs. a bunch o' nigs" angle. GTFOH with that Romeo and Julianequa B.S.  [Edited 5/12/10 8:39am] | |

Identity said: Timmy84 said: Oops. All the more reason for her to celebrate interracial unions and show tolerance, which is what the video does. Classic phrases there..."celebrate interracial unions" and "show tolerance". Why should interracial unions be celebrated as if they are any different from other unions? They aren't. They are not special. They are not "un-thinkable". People are people. And "tolerance" - who is to be tolerated? Tolerance and acceptance imply giving in on the part of parties involved and are very different from equality and unity. That video was stereotypical in some aspects and and also perpetrated a false impression - that black males are as equally or even more upset with BF/WM interracial dating as WM and WF are. That's a load of B.S. Why am I not surprised the video director is a white male? (Jake Nava). The truth is she wrote a song trying to put a positive spin on her own homewrecking antics and when they decided to make the video, they came up with some fairy-tale, Romeo and Juliettta/Tony and Maria, upper-West Side story bullshit to communicate an even more distorted picture. Yeah, we all know how often brothas were ganging up on white guys in the 50s/60s and whooping their asses.  Yeah, right. | |

But then again, if its not misogynistic video against black women, then its an emasculating video against black men. Balance and REALITY is taboo nowadays. | |

Plus she's one to talk, getting involved with an married man who has a child with two different women. | |
