EXPLANATION

Thursday, March 6th, 2008

Over the last couple days I have received comments pertaining to my blog posts.  The comments made me realize that I need to provide a more indepth explanation  about my thoughts.

  • As I read the posts again, I failed to mention that Ed, my husband, was one of the two individuals that encouraged me to start ALEGNA along with Michelle, a sister friend of mine.  We often take the people who are very close to us for granted because they are always there.  Challenge:  Never work harder at your job than you do at your marriage.
  • My comments are not intended to be racially bias, but to share thoughts concerning what is happening in the society that we live in from my prospective.  My thoughts are my opinions and in no way do I intend to cause harm or discomfort.  I have a high regard for African-Americans, Blacks, People of Color, etc.  and our potential to increase our standard of living if we marry within our race.  If you choose to do otherwise, that is your business and I respect your decision.  I do however, know the challenges that we face by marrying and dating individuals from another race.  Black men honor my black sisters by giving them the respect, recognition and appreciation they deserve and earned.  I have several relatives and friends that have married and date outside of their race and the relationships are great.  So, I can attest that inter-racial marriages work.  It just happens not to be my preference.

Have a Wonderful Night!
