two lil cuties
I JUST CANNOT BELIEVE HOW MANY BLACK MEN THERE ARE IN HOLLYWOOD WTH NON BLACK WOMEN. I MEAN DOES ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THIS? IT’S A SICKNESS WHEN WE BEGAN TO GET SO CAUGHT UP IN THE “AMERICAN DREAM”, THAT WE MAKE OURSELVES EXTINCT BY JOINING AND MAKING FAMILIES WITH EVERY RACE BUT OUR OWN. IT IS DISTURBING HOW SO MANY BLACK MEN, ESPECIALLY AND WOMEN MAKE IT TO HOLLYWOOD AND FORGET WHO THEY ARE AND THEY WANT TO BE AND WANT TO BREED CHILDREN THAT DO NOT LOOK LIKE THEM. DO BLACK MEN AND WOMEN HATE THEMSELVES? IT SEEMS TO BE TRUE.
the only thing disturbing is your view! surly the only thing that matters is that you love each other not what colour you are,unless you are that shallow!!!!!!
If anyone of you Americans knows the true history behind Bob Marley you would know he is bi-racial. Most of you like the ‘pretty hair effect’ anyways. To my fellow West Indian do your thing.
I totally agree kiki!!!!
I think the ONLY MArley kid that dates within their race is Rohan. The rest seem to be colorstruck and lost.
you mever heard of ONE LOVE francessca? it means ONE LOVE for all none of the marleys are colourstruck or lost its a good thing we have people like them in this world who only look on the world as the human race and don’t go byy the colour of there skin!!!!!! oh and wasn,t bob marley of mixed race! so what does that make rohan ? dumb ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOB MARLEY MOTHER WAS BLACK AND HIS FATHER IS WHITE..SO WHAT MAKES HIS MOTHER LOL..NOW I DON’T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH BI-RACIAL KIDS DATING OTHER RACES I MEAN THEY ARE MIXED LOL..
The only thing that is killing the black race out is genocide.Black on black crime.It sicken me that we dont realize their is only one race the human race.
NOPE WHATS KILLING OUR RACE IS RACE MIXING LOL IZZIE
They are so cute! Why is it that every time I turn around there are half black children everywhere? I ain’t hating though! =)
Ziggy has children by a black so does Kymani and Stephen Marley.
I want to respond about the comment that was mentioned by Tonya,that there is half black and white kids everywhere makes me think do black people hate themselves that much black is beautiful don’t they know if can remember we were in slaved with shackles on our hands and feet and our black children were stolen and they made slaves out of them took our dignity and respect and told us we were animals in the trees we need to start waking up you do not have to be biracial to be beautiful because we are the kings and queens that roams the earth
yes bob marley is biracial, and yes he did say one love,that doesant mean, forget where you came from.black people need to tell themselves that we are beautiful,we are a beautiful race of people.and we need to start to love one another,and come together as a black people.then we can teach others how to love.before we can love some one elese.we need to educate, our black children and teach them about there ancestors and there roots. so we as a people have alot of work toooooo,do.and we give thanks to the most high.black princess.
im from london (england) n wat your sayin about black people especially black men, 4gettin where they come from is soo true…but the problem stems from us black people and what your teaching the children dem….there is this whole stupid thing about black men wanting to be with mixed women or light skinned black women and its really sad.. because half the men that are doing this are not even light skinned themselves so it makes you think that they do not find themselves or anyone else their colour as attractive….BLACK PEOPLE EDUCATE YOUR BLACK CHILDREN THAT THERE IS NOTHIN MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN THEM…
his kids are cuties. i think many societies also do a good job of making black girls feel inferior to white and others.whether they know it or care to know.in tv,commercials they just dont seem to think about promoting looks, relationships ect. but there are shows like bachelor .they have no problem promoting bad things. even with haiti and how close it is to larger richer countries in the region. there are not many who give a damn.
I am responding to miss london if you are of color then me and you are on the same page because we were taught not to like ourselves we were taught that white was more prettier we were taught to hate each other we were taught to be little our selves but i know for a fact i come from a beautiful creator that made me a beautiful black princess and all black women and black men are queens and kings of the earth we need to tell our selves that we are beautiful and the more we do it we can begin to love one another educate one another protect one another become like we once were a whole again we give all praise to the most high
To all of those whose comments claim that just b/c you are in a relationship with someone of another race and produce mixed children means that you don’t think that Black is beautiful need to get real. You can love yourself AND your culture/race/heritage and STILL love who you love, black, white or whatever. Mixed children are EQUALLY as beautiful as Black children, and children of any other race. Keep in mind that racism and prejudice mean and manifest as the same coming from Black people as it does from White people. HATERS.
Hi ressie and how are you I would like to respond to your comment and I hate to repeat myself but let me say this one more time you have a right to your own opinion. And that’s good but I don’t think you heard me well enough let me explain this to you again I said unless we love our culture meaning our selves we cannot love anyone else I was only saying our black men need to love there black women and respect them and acknowlege who they are instead of trying to be like a oreo cookie it seems to me that the only reason why black men like biracial children is because they don’t even like themselves and 9 times out of 10 the children there children do not look like they belong to them.
Ziggy Marley has five kids…his first three are from black women..the two oldest kids are from a dark skinned sister..so I doubt it, if ziggy marley dislike black women ….
The comment about the kids yeah he does have five kids but still in all why did he have to go and have biracial kids when he could have stayed with the sister and another thing he left the three black children unknown and put biracial kids on the screen so everyone could see so why didn’t he put all five of the children together if thats the case.
renee I have no idea lol..but I do know that his oldest two are grown-up kids..I think daniel bam marley is 19 or 20, and Justice Marley is seventeen.. the third child I have no idea about lol..But I mean ziggy marley had a white grandfather..bob marley is biracial.father white, mother black. my thing with the marleys is that they love to have many kids…unlike ziggy who is married ..his other brothers have more children then him, and are not married.
Its funny how lots of people rip on the fact that he has biracial children. Um people, BOB MARLEY WAS BIRACIAL! His dad was white from Great Britain. I don’t know why people make such a big deal about black men or black women dating out of our race. So what. If thats their preference leave them alone. We’re restricting ourselves when we only want to date “one type” of people, cause we may not find who we want emotionally if we keep looking on the outside. Find something else to do other than putting people down for their choices and become educated, aware, and less ignorant.
This is to isha, its not just about ziggy but it dose apply to him because of how he was raised stop hopping about bob marley about him being biracial because he did not asked to be biracial.and for what ive,read the family did not approve.bobs mother was 18yrs of age bob,s father was 50yrs of age personality i thank thats rape.and during those times white/men was raping black wemon.its not because we wanted to.you my deer need to read about your black history and start learning and make sure you go back as far as slavery.and by the way slavery still exisits.black princess.
just a reminder every thing came out of africa,so get real.i have nothing against,on what peoples preference is.but people of color need to start teaching there black children about slavery and how it started and how it,s still going on. our black boys are still being lynched in the south this is what the media dont want you to here.its not okay this saddens me that this is still going no.and no one seems to care.i just want justice, they shall pay for there blood shed and thats what bob marley said.peace and blessings.
first of all Bob Marley’s father was not from great britian..He is a white Jamaican…Yes there are white people that are born and raised in jamaica..of course by him being white..and like some white jamaicans his family migrated to jamaica from europe..and like there are fulled blooded irish jamaicans..Ya’ll need to travel more lol.
P.S Stop reading every little biography about bob marley..half that crap is not true….But his father was Born in jamaica…
Thank you for that comment one love,first of all i have all of Bob Marleys videos,and all of his children,mother and his beautiful wife tell the story about the truth ABOUT BLACK JAMAICA. THATS RIGHT AT ONE TIME JAMAICA WAS ALL BLACK.SO IF YOU REMEMBER ANY THING ABOUT SLAVERY WE ALL NO HOW CAUCASIONS GOT THERE.I TALK TO ALOT OF INTELLIGENT JAMAICANS AND THEY NO ALOT ABOUT BLACK HISTORY AND AT THAT TIME THOSE WHITE Men WOULD COME OFF THOSE SHIPS, AND COME AND RAPE THOSE BLACK WOMEN And that should not be news to you.and eventually when you keep on raping you end up with half white jamaica, they are not the pure jamaican peace and love.
Well honey i’m a black woman and i’m married to a white man and I have bi racial children…a 1yr old and a 3yr old. My kids will know about where they came from on both sides. Seriously ya’ll need to let that “oh he with a white girl” [stuff] go
Everyone has there own opinion of course you have no other choice but to say what you just said because i love all people but the truth of the matter yes you can teach really only the black culture because learning about white culture is learning about how white people enslaved america and how it is necassary to also teach your children how slavery still is happening today in america.SO when you teach your children i hope and pray that you make sure you teach the truth peace and blessings….
i also would like to express another comment on biracial children,i have talked to alot of biracial children and believe it or not they have it harder then a all black child for an example there not black or white and they sometimes not excepted in this society, some of them dont no why there parents are black or white for an example when they grow up in society boy o boy some recieve harsh treatment some not.but all children are beautiful but its, not fare to the child when the child is not taught the truth about both parents.
i have the mindset of trying to listen to and understanding all sides of things. sometimes the black side of things, because im black. and everyone else, because i live in the world with all kinds of different people.
renee, black history is not only about slavery.white history isnt either.there are all kinds of whites, some speak different languages. just like there are all kinds of blacks. its not a surprise that someone whos family in the past were enslave would have a harder time than people who were not. i dont take it lightly at all.its just that you can become mentally enslave in your pass if you don’t realise that there was some progress made. you also brought up ‘lynchings and black men. in the past a lot of lynchings took place because black men allegedlly whistle or spoke to white women. thats why in this day and age a lot of people see some of the black women who speak about black men ‘getting with white women’ as kind of racist.even if some dont see it as not progressing,thats what it is. there were black slaves who were rape by their masters aswell or ‘breeded’. should all the black women who are married to white men divorce them, because its sexing your fromer master ? i dont the world is free of racism and prejudice against blacks or minorities.about bob marley,he saw himself as a black african, and that was his cause all through his life. his father left this mother because he didnt think society would like it. it doesnt change the fact that he was biracial.
yes to says,bob marley is biracial in deed,but like i was saying before he did not asked to be biracial,bob,s mother was 18yrs, and bobs father was between40 or45yrs of age.and for what ive, read the family did not approve of it.sooooound,s like rape to me,and during those times,white men were taking those black wemon, and raping them they had no other choice.and i no that there are all kinds of white people and not all are racist. but majority rule.they were in high power then.i was told they could not even ware there dreds,caucasions, would have them cut. sooooounds, like control to me.white people always wanted to be superior race.
responding to to says, there are still lynching going, on you just dont here about it as much,why do you think the jails, are so full with our black men,and the gover,ment throws all these extra charles on them so they can keep them inside, like dogs,and believe it or not alot of them are inocent.i am not living in the past, but racism still exisits, and now even ever before,did you here about the hate crime in virginia,this black woman was tortured in the hospital by a group of whites,they came to her room cut her dreds, off the men raped her for 2 hours, made her eat and drink feces and urin from the toilet, whipped her repeatly,stuck objects up her rectum made her have sex orally.now you tell me whats going on.peace and love.
to 2 says. i feel before black men and black wemon marry into other races,esp whites they need to really think about what there doing. because may be not all, but i strongly beleive, they do this because, they feel there children are going to be better looking, which in most cases is not true. and i believe its a sickness with in them selves.this all extends from slavery, not feeling good about our selves we make beautiful black babies, our skin are golden the best on the planet.during egyptian,times we never had disease,sno skin conditions only accidents.we were powerful then and powerful now.my ancestors slaved and shed blood for this country, but every body wants to forget,like it like it never happened.
2 says, yes you can love other races, of people, but i believe we as a black people need to love, our selves first. and we need to educate our selves first, love our black children, teach our black children,why do you think bob,marley wrote the song africa,unite,because our children want to go home.africa where we were stolen, from ware our roots,is our people are so darn confused,we dont even no any thing about our ancestors,alot of us dont even no spirit dancing.we as a black people, need to start going back learning our true heritage, that we so badly want to forget.and that,s sad.we are not the forgotten people.
2 says.and yes black culture, is more inportant than any other because every thing started in africa,and thats a fact. peace and blessings.
renee, there are no more ‘public’ lynchings of blacks who have relations with whites. thats the progression i was speaking of. the relationship between bob marleys parents was not rape.from the docs and information i saw. his parents met while both were doing field work, his father was the overseer(sp), and his mother was a field worker. dredlocks were illegal to wear,but blacks later took the same policies and laws & enforce them against other blacks. now its not illegal to wear them in jamaica.thats progress i think. no doubt that slavery in the british west indies was very brutal thats why many didn’t stay alive or the best breeds last. i heard of the case about the lady in VA, also james bird yrs ago. the information gets out all over the world either through cnn international or somewhere else. its not like there are 120 lynchings of blacks in america per ur like there was in the 19th century. you should see the doc on jack johnson the first african american boxer unforgivable blackness. as a celebrity he face less discrimination than ordinary blacks in america. there were also many white women during those times who got with him,even australian women who went in droves to see how he look. africa is not a country there are white africans, in south africa they are call boers.there is progression there too.
renee,1st,black slaves came from all parts of africa.your grgrgrmother could be from one country and your grgrgrfather from another.slavers did this to keep uprisings from happening. 2nd, who said all those tribes and countries in africa do the same kind of spirit dancing or singing? let the people who came to the west on ships move on before there is real confusion.because out of that suffering, the world got jazz and r&b from the us, reggae from jamaica, calypso from other west indies and so on.
to: I agree with everything you wrote..Bob Marley’s mother was indeed In love with “Captain Norval Sinclaire Marley lol…despite the age..they made “The King of Reggae”. So let that be lol…
I can’t let that be because I’m about truth now I admit reggae is beautiful but bob marley’s mother and father were not in love at that time when those men got off the ships they were takin slaves and like i said they were raping black women and they were also becoming with child so try to read between the lines peace and blessings
this was the year 1945 lol renee what are you talking about bob marley’s mother was not a slave in the 1940’s lol…slavery was been over..his mother worked in a farm..not cotton field..and norval marley was the overseer not the master lol..he was paying cedella marley and her family money..he wanted to make sure they was doing their job..that was a overseer do..
I think the marley family would be in total Outrage to read that you think their beloved grandmother was a slave and seduce by a slave master.. What are you talking about????
Well reading Cedella booker Marley Memior: Hey it may not be true..be she wrote the memior herself..She said she fell for the captain..and yes she was too young at that time..he told her until she grow up some more.. then couple years later they hooked backed up, got married..and had robert nesta marley..a name his father gave him.. So I doubt if the Great Late Cedella Marley was raped..She said she was they was in love lol…
this is to one love, when there will be, no hatred twards black people when my people can love, each other,and when africa can unite with one another,when my people,can be free of hate crimes, when my people in africa, are no longer starving,when my people,in ethopia are no longer needing medical care, when jamacia,can grow enough vegetables,and when they are able to get medical care, for there children when some body, can hears the cry of the hungry children they have been hungry toooo,long where is the one love.when this is solved, then we can be one love.
let me make my self clear, i did not say bobs mother was a slave at all listen good, i said during those times it wasnt,slavery like whips or masters and such, but there were white men controling, blacks for an ex, bob marley never new his father,alot of things was not explained to bob,and there were alot of things,jamacians,had no control over.like at one point in time, bob was taken from his mother, bob,s father was,nt really there for him so he never really new him. and for what i,ve read bobs father and mother was not married remember she was black and he was white.and i said back in slavery,the slave masters would inpregnant black wemon to make more slaves.
can i also tell you this,at one time there were no whites in africa. and thats without predijudice.we all no how they got there though,caucasions, always wanted to take over every bodies land,i no you heared the story about the indians on how they damyear killed them off.and took there land,and said it was theres,my grand father, still lives on reservation, and is very educated.iam all about one love, but when my people, are free ,then we can be one love because the most high is all about love , and i have enough love for every one. peace blessings.
i really wish you could see this video, of bob marleys,mother and she discuses the relationship, about bob,s father sure dont sound like they were in love to me.and after a time, she married a black jamacian,and stayed married to death do part.but again iam sorry you thought i said bob,s mother was a slave not true i have much respect, for the family,and i loved bob,because he put out the truth even when certain race of people told him,his music was jungle music, and that he came from out of the trees.and yes we are making progress,but its not enough just think after 400 and 20 yrs,of bondage we havent moved that far, peace and love.
Remember,i did not say bob,s mother was a slave. so get it correct. sweet heart.
