- Unfortunately we live in a cruel, nasty world (sometimes). Recently at the park, Ava and Alexis (mixed-race), were called the N word. We decided to take the opportunity to talk about this publicly to bring light to an unfortunate situation. Let's hope it doesn't happen again.

i am also black and i woukd not telerate that.ava and alexsis good job

The fact that kids aren’t born to hate but are taught to hate! It’s all from their parents disgusting
But their banning books to stop kids from being taught what some of them said is bad perspectives and behavior, Ha!!!!
@@jjscrilla3558 that’s my point racism will never end! Racism isn’t made up on it’s own, it’s taught! The real problem is parents and I also think the government should get involved but they don’t care
😢this was a very sad time and we will be back on Monday to mourn this tragic incident in the city and we hope 😊😢😮😮😢
I’m very sorry! That’s unfortunate! 😢😢😢! I hope you handle this well! On behalf of all of your followers, We wish your family the best!
Yes no one should be called that to Ava and Alexis:you are beautiful just the way you are, and also stay safe and don’t be mean
@emersonallen8237
No one should be called that word period! I truly believe some kids learn bad things from their parents.
Absolutely @@yacfab
@@yacfabIt comes from one of the parents at home. It's their environment. So sad I live in Florida this been going on for several years it happens badly more in the south. If it happens to mine i am going straight to the school
@@tammywilliams9335So want would you do if someone called them that of their own race. Should not be used period.
Ava said it the best. I love the facts that they didn’t let them get under their skin. I absolutely love this family

My husband and I had many talks with our daughter about how the world would see her. As a mixed race family we knew there was gonna be hate. Well done mom and dad on raising your smart beatiful girls!!!!!
Yes. The foundation starts at home whether it is love and acceptance or hate and bigotry. We have a responsibility to raise confident children that realize that we are diverse and all have value so be understand just we are just not the same we are varied like a bouquet of flowers.
Jealousy develops into hatred, and its a very ugly thing. The bible is right, jealousy is as cruel as the grave.
A white guy called me that once and God made me realize he hated himself and not me, so I chose to forgive him.
Three weeks later, he jumped off a building and they said, his head split open like a watermelon. I was so glad I had forgiven him.
That name, or any word, only has as much power as we give it.
Yes words hurt, but they are only words. Don't let them trip you up. Forgive them, shake it off, and keep moving forward.
😂😂😂😂 karma
@@chelseahenrydajoh9739it’s not funny it’s really sad.
but I’m glad @DeeDee-fh6wc handled it that way!❤
@@Urmomiafan well funny or not it’s still karma. Negativity brings bad things, positivity brings good thing! My parents always say you can’t give what you don’t have! People should learn to be self aware
@@chelseahenrydajoh9739 yes! I completely agree with your statements! I just didn’t think it was funny.
@@chelseahenrydajoh9739😂😂😂
I’m so sorry! I hate that some parents don’t teach their kids proper respect and manner’s! This is why teachers and childcare workers aren’t working!
It's also possible they heard their parents say the n-word...od someone in their family
It all starts with the parents. PERIOD!
What is period
Bro did PERIOD checkkkkk😂😂😂😂
wtf are u saying
It starts with the parents and the people they are around no child just walks up to someone and call them the n word they only do it because they see it and hear it and think it’s ok when it’s not.
@@cheyannejules4724 A period is something that your mom gets
Being black isn’t derogatory,we fail to teach children about Afrocentric accomplishments and prominence throughout the world.All they are taught in the USA is negative associations with being black or melanated. Teach them about black women and men who have shaped the world and have achieved outstanding excellence.
I agree we have a rich history and it needs to be shared. We are amazing and resilient and our children deserve to have dignity and respect.
Their melanin doesn't make them "BLACK" Teach them to be proud of their ancestry and not ashamed of my ancestry because we are not ashamed... it's the new immigrants of all cultures that continue to misrepresent my ancestry... their Nigerian family is educated and successful... that is their lineage... THEIR PRIDE! We shouldn't encourage a Nigerian-American child to continue a fight that we already won. Tell them the TRUTH... TELL THEM THAT THEIR FAMILY IS FROM NIGERIA... BUILD THEM UP AND ABOVE IGNORANCE... TELL THEM TO BE PROUD OF THE CULTURE AND ANCESTRY... TELL THEM THAT THEY ARE NOT THE SAME AS THE ENSLAVED NEGRO TRIBE WHO WAS ROBBED... WE FOUGHT AND WE ARE STRONG!
My comment contained TRUTHS... this man is using his Nigerian-American step-daughters to provoke his historic OLD SOUTHERN JIM CROW "BLACK" ON "White" RACISM.
Yes, I felt like saying "We don't see race" is seemingly a nice sentiment. They're trying to say "everyone should be treated with respect", which is true. But not seeing race is actually erasure of what Black people have had to endure and overcome, and ignoring their achievements and successes despite the gravity of when that word was used by people who had "ownership" over them.
Thankyou, said perfectly
I wish the person who said the n word is not saying it ever again
Come on people what world you from. They will be saying it again.

THE WORLD. "You have to both; give it to your children, and liberate them from it." -James Baldwin.
That is terrible. No one, let alone kids, have to deal with or go through that experience. So sorry about that and hope it doesn’t happen again. 😢
Its going to happen again. How many times did it happen to you?
@@JONESZ441 That's a shame, sad to hear that. It happened zero times to me probably because I come from and live in a village in South Africa. I am surrounded by other blacks 99.9% of the time.
@@JONESZ441I don’t remember ever being called one.
Omg I feel soo bad no one deserves to be treated like that ❤
How infuriating. I hate that this happened. The girls have a wonderful attitude. They are incredibly mature and thoughtful. Keeping the dialogue open is important.
Being black can be very hard. I’m a black girl myself and I definitely wouldn’t be able to hold myself back I would go off on them. You girls handled that very well. I’m very sorry that happened that is very unfortunate.
It’s just words, would you go off if someone called you a *itch.
I haven’t seen you guys in such a while - the girls are gorgeous - they will be ok! You guys have taught them well!
Im so sorry this happened to them, I wish you all the best❤
WOW!!! What this is telling me is that the parents of these children are TEACHING their children this still to this day! OR the parents aren’t teaching them that this is wrong to say. Children also want to feel inclusive and let their “friends” influence/pressure them to do what they’re doing. It’s very encouraging to see that Ava and Alexis are being taught the right way and understand how things should be……. that they’re strong young ladies and knew how to handle the situation!!!! 💜🎊💜🎉
YUPPPPP- their parents haven’t denounced racism therefore they allow it!!!’🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️

🙋🏾♀️Wait i’m still at BOB AND MARISSA😂🤣😂🤣😂
Great job parents! I love how educational this video is and how doing the research helps a lot. I wish that every parent and child can watch this video. ♥️♥️
I'm very sorry this happened to you. I hope you all are okay and they get disciplined.
Sorry this happened to your girls. 😡
@@melaniemarshall5614 stop being mean
you guys raised ur kids right, its just stressful that other parents cant raise thereselves or there children! its insane! i feel so bad for ur kids of what happend. Its really shocking that some parents dont teach there kids proper manners!
I'm so sorry that happened to your children. I grew up in Memphis in the 50's and 60's where we were called that word regularly. Our mom told us that you're not that word and you know that so just ignore it because they want to get a reaction out of you so just disappoint them, don't give them the satisfaction.
Exactly, your mom was right. That word only has as much power as you give it.
@@DeeDee-fh6wc
That's what she said exactly 💯
Sorry the children went through that. Appreciate that you turned this into a sort of PSA to edify everyone. Thank You.
Not Ava with the "Moving Finger!"(Sheldon Big Bang Theory), when she first began her speak on it lol.❤😂
first as a mom I approve of lexi's message but Bob and Marissa part made me spit out my coffee laughing
Hahha
Don't let this get brushed under the rug. It's a form of bullying. Address their parents now. This bullcrap has to stop NOW!!!!
I love ya'll and the children.This pisses me off.
I’m 62 years old, and there are a lot of things I don’t remember about my childhood, but nothing terrified me like the time I first got called the “N” word by a white kid when I was 11 years old. My then 9 year old brother and I were on a camping trip in Connecticut with our friends, who happen to be white. We had just left the restroom, and were walking through a cul de sac where tents were situated. A little girl of about 8 years old started yelling at us, “Go home “N---!” Go home! I told my brother, “Run Chucky, run!” I was afraid adults would come after us, and harm us. I was afraid they would believe we did something to the little girl. We ran so hard and so fast, back to our campsite, and told our friends what happened. I didn’t want to go back to that restroom anymore. No other white person since then has called me the “N” word. This is a different day and age, and I would have to mop the floor with someone who dares to try me now.
I feel bad for the girls I’m sorry that this happened this is really messed up
As a Hispanic girl who’s 20 years old never experienced that but I’m very sorry to hear about that.😢😭🥺
I clicked so fast.😢 so called me that on the internet, it tanked my spirit...
im so sorry for you guys 😢 this has happened to me,but just be brave and ignore this disrespectful kid and have a good day without having to be sad.
I am a black girl and I know what it feels like but you girls are being so strong and brave.I wish someday I can be like that.
Like if you agree with this.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
There is no excuse for the use of that word by ANY race. Society sends VERY mixed messages to our children. I hear that word in the music my young nephews listen to and it makes me sick.
Good for you girls. You have self worth because you were raised right. NEVER give a word the power to knock you down or make you feel less.
I love this channel🥰
100%❤
You guys are soo strong and handled that so well I hope never happens again y'all are beautiful ❤❤❤
I’m very sorry you had to hear and go through that. There is no reason in the world for this to be still going on. Makes me sad and sick.
It's a shame this is still going on and coming from other children who know better. They must be hearing this at home or from other family members. Shame on them.😮
Not necessarily from family members. Could be other kids they picked it up from. But fact is, their parents missed out on teaching them about racism. Most likely their parents don't care about that. Otherwise that kid would've used different words...
Ami and Justin y’all did an job teaching y’all children and Alexis I would not ever make her mad Alexis knows how to handle herself in situation and Alexis can be good actress my opinion thanks for sharing much love 💜💜💜💙💙😊 11:01
Ava and Alexis are fine and they will not have anxiety and stress.
They are brave young girls!
Hey twins, keep standing up for yourself young queens Sincerely, Brooks from your school
I'm so sorry this happened. It's so heartbreaking that some parents don't teach their children to be respectful. 💔
I'm so sorry that happened to you, but I'm glad are confident and strong young ladies. Great job parents for instilling those traits in them.
You girls are very brave and strong, cudos to you parents for raising them to be strong and courageous..❤❤❤
I agree with Ava and Alexis and mom please don't be worried. You have beautiful and smart kids😊😊. If they were in my country the would be really admired ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love the way you guys teach your children. My son is mixed and he was called the N word and has done his research to know how to respond back.. it was quite sometimes he would have to introduce them to Bob and Marissa..luv you girls remember jealousy is a terrible thing. End of ignorance.
Im so sorry babygirls and Mom and Dad that you all are experiencing this....... I am a Black,Native,Hispanic Woman and my Oldest Daughter is half Russian. We've unfortunately heard all thr names.😢
Yesssssss reinforce positive views of yoursleves babygirls and GREAT JOB Mom and Dad. ✝️
Educating your children will have a positive outcome, I am happy they were not offended. I was called all kind of racial slurs. 1979 was so different to now. I didn’t tell my father, I dealt with my pain alone.
I'm telling you guys that the hate is not just taught, it's ingrained in their DNA, sadly and sickenly🤨🙄.
What exactly do you mean by that? Hatred is taught. I would never speak that way to someone and when my daughters were that age, if they said something like that, they’d be in a world of hurt.
As a black woman myself, I would never say that hatred is ingrained in someone's DNA.
That's a little dramatic. I agree with Morgan Freeman when he said, if we want racism to end, we need to stop talking about it.
Hatred is taught. Children are not born to hate because they are not developed they have no sense of color.
@@DeeDee-fh6wc In other Racism will end just by ignoring it 🤔😲😦.
Bob and Matissa had me laughing so hard! 😂😂
I am so sorry that you both experience this fooltry. And it's very important to love yourself enough to know who you are and a voice of a stranger you will not follow ❤🙏🏾
Title just shocked me, having to deal with this issue as a child is just sad why did/do racism even exist and they how to learn it from family which is sick it’s taught to children to see just color
Sadly America was built off racism
It doesn't matter how many generations or years pass, this issue is still happening and the only way to deal with it is to teach your kids how to deal with that situation the best way they can, sadly at their age i never had that support being an orphan growing up but ive learned to deal with it the best way possible that i could back then
I am so sorry that it happened it breaks my heart there are people like that.
I am so sorry girls!!😢 heart shattered just looking at the title of the video
They are so confident and mature ❤❤
Poor girls 😢😢😢😢 well done to mom and dad for confronting this horrible situation head on .
The girls have solid self-esteem based on their Mom. They will grow up to be strong young ladies. Besides people of color are a global majority not a minority.
#GLOBALMAJORITY 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
So the contracto and I have been in London and ky and
Great conversation. Sorry the kids had to experience that. 👏🏽that they walked away and told you guys 👑👑
I love how the family handled this!
That wasn't the kid saying it as much as it's a reflection on who is raising them. These girls are so smart and able to see through the intentions of others
My apologies that yall had to go through that. Smh prayers
That’s right Ava and Alexis! Those boys are the ones with the problem and not you two. I’m happy that you didn’t give them the reaction they expected, luv u girls! It’s all about how you react. You could have called them some names, plenty names too, because they do look different from you but nobody bothers them because they’ve made themselves the norm but they’re not!!! 11:06 (their parents lied to them) so sad for them! Keep being strong and assertive and positive and secure and kind. Great job parents kudos to you❤
It’s good that you educate your children about the ignorance and cruelty of the world. So they will know how to handle it further on in life.
That is horrible. I am so sorry to hear that the girls had to experience it, however I am so proud of them how they handle it which shows how well of a job both of you Ami and Justin are doing as parents. It is an unfair world we live in and all we can do is what you have said be prepared, have conversations and instill confidence and positivity within our children.
This is what will continue to happen if we don't stand up to book banning and white washing history. Any child made to feel marginalize will result in this because we are diverse and have value and capable of being worth getting to know.
So sorry they had to go thru that.
Awh,I remember watching these girls when they were younger they are much older now! I’m verey sorry they had to experience racism at this age. But these girls are so grown now and beautiful!
Uggggghhhhh, I was called the same in Home Depot last year! ITS THERE AND WILL NOT LEAVE!!!
Wow I feel very bad for you as a black 10 year old I know how you feel especially at school it happens alot. 😢
As a black girl this has happened to me many time I know how you feel I'm very proud that you told an parent. Don't let others upset you you are every smart girls.
Ok I saw this name on my subscriptions and like no don’t mess with Ava and Alexis let them live without any problems,btw y’all are so freaking pretty
Parents, im so proud of yall(been watching since the girls were itty-bitty). I'm endeared to your family. We care about your family so much here. Please if you will- unless you already have-get them into self defence class. ASAP Great confidence building plus fitness ensues too lol. How unfortunate to have to deal with this. Your family is blessed and in doing God's will you will deal with negative people. Stay safe, prayed up and thank you for sharing with us.
I' have PTSD and suffer from depression and anxiety from racism in America it's so bad we don't even go into grocery stores or shop at all
wow..
I’m sorry you have to feel this way. Please seek professional help if possible, to help with your confidence and mental health. You matter and you are loved❤️
I'M SO VERY SORRY THAT THIS HAPPEND TO BOTH OF U GIRLS I'M VERY PROUD OF U ALEXIS OF STANDING UP FOR YOURSELFN YOUR TWIN SISTER/ALSO THE BOTH TIMES U CLAPPED BACK ALEXIS WAS AWSOME I LOVE IT ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ 💕 💘
It is even good that they have dignity and no one will take it from them. I love you twins
I m so outraged that someone would say nasty word to these sweet and beautiful girls. Don’t let there ignorance stop you . Keep moving ❤❤❤❤
name calling is bad but kids do it. adults do it.. it happens dont let it break your stride . stay strong princesses.
You are not what they say you are, You are what God says you are. ❤Love you my twinnies ❤
I’m so sorry that happened😢💔
"Whitney Houston nailed it with 'learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all.' 🎶 Watching my kid grow up fills my heart with joy! Being there for them through thick and thin is what being a parent is all about. Now that my kid is grown, I know I did my best to make them feel loved just as they are. And even when adults tease me about my appearance, I remember the twins' advice… love yourself because you'll be with yourself forever!
Best advice ever!! 😊🙌👏👍🏾
That’s a shame. You all handled it well
I’m sorry that happened to you girl it’s sad that racism and bullying is still out there and parents can’t do anything about it keep your heads up
Omg that's terrible hope the best for them💗💗
So sorry your two precious sweethearts had to go through that. 💞🙏🏽🙏🏽💞
Its so sad how these beautiful have experienced this. God bless 🙌 ❤
WHAT ,noo Ava Alexis i fell so bad its OK though good thing you told your parents ❤❤
Greetings, I have faced adversities, been confused about the language used to describe such situation and/or circumstances, and to hear such honesty dialoge in reference to the fact that these unfortunate experience have enough of an affect that the parents feel saying something is important. Great example: Today and many other times dishearting thing may be done or said to such an affect that I can only pray the parents and the children are healing from such an exsperience. God Bless🖤
This world in moving in retrovert in terms of racial feelings. So sorry for my beauties experience, but so glad that they became aware of their surroundings🫶🏽💪🏽🙌🏾 Love u guys ❤️
Alexis said bob and Marissa DO👏🏾 NOT 👏🏾PLAY👏🏾 They stand on business😂
Don't mind them. Just remember, you're beautiful, powerful and talented.❤❤❤
Omg really.., unfortunate situation🥺 It's such a shame that we are still dealing with this in this day & age, but we are.😖😣 Thank goodness the girls were not affected. And they have parents like you guys to help them to understand that it's not who they are & they are smart, bright young little girls. I pray they want have to deal with it again!!❤🙏🏽💖
Ava and Alexis are so brave and calm to tolerate that if I were I. That situation I would of fought them back
I’m sorry to hear that
i feel bad for you guys may god bless you all love you guys❤!
The girls are confident in who they are. They are smart, beautiful, educated, and successful. Those boys were intimidated by the girls and thought by insulting them that they were going to shake them up. They are the MCCLURE TWINS and they will not be broken.
That's so sad!! No matter what color skin or what a person looks like, it does not matter God loves them and made them how he wants it!! You girls are so BEAUTIFUL!! ALWAYS remember God loves you!!❤❤
Very goo video, good job. Parenting is not easy for anyone and kids get info from their parents and from their peers. Hence, parents must communicate with their kids and not avoid topics that may seem not necessary to the parent; for the kid will hear from their peers and the way the kids handles it may or may not set well with the parent.
I'm black aswell and I yet bullied alot but it's ok because your comment family is here❤❤❤
I’m sorry that your girls had to experience that and for That child to have called her that means that he’s hearing that from somewhere could be at home or some family member, but that is taught behavior
I remember one of your videos you were teaching them about that same thing…it’s unfortunate.
I am very sorry that they had to deal with a sick person I want the girls to know that they are very Beautiful and don't let a sick person steal their Joy
Its good they are not offended so it won't affect how they live their lives
