I’m glad that the panel didn’t just say, “Some Koreans don’t know any better. It’s not racism.” That has been the response to these types of questions for far too long. What happened to treat people the way you would want to be treated? They wouldn’t ask these questions to a white woman or an Asian woman so they should not ask them to black women. Kudos to everyone on the panel fir being educated, cultured, and well spoken Also these women speak Korean so well! I’m impressed.
Actually, they would ask these questions to a white person (and any other person). The reason for this is because they don't see foreigners or people who don't look like them often. There are many people in certain parts of Africa who have never seen white people. The first time they see white people, they have many questions (even some that may seem offensive). Is that racism? No.
@@tanayaberrywhat are you taking about ?? No they wouont ask white ppl the types of questions that they ask white ppl. Even in Africa as you’ve stated or most poc countries treats white ppl different bc of white supremacy
As a Black Woman , globally people need to learn to obviously see past our body and hair because that’s all they ever ask about . Never question about hobbies, food, last movie you watched, like NOTHING BUT objectification
Like, dude said I guess because they see it on TV, and unfortunately, that's how we are portrayed in "pop culture."" People need to learn that not everything they see on the screen is true. Get out there, meet real people, and see for yourselves.And this is especially dangerous when learning about a different culture. For example people thinking that living in korea is like being in a kdrama...
i’d say it’s mostly based on stereotypes and that black girls are more likely foreign, so they have a culture/language barrier which allows men to pry more on them bc they’re unfamiliar with that country/ and are more likely to have less friends (but this can also be applied to all foreigners in korea)
Well, idk how much caucasian and blacks differ in sexual behavior. But compared to koreans I get the impression both(white and blacks) are considerably more promiscuous. And if you are more promiscuous it follows that you are easier. P.S:. I am not saying it to criticize any specific race, I care mostly about the individual rather than the race. But if somebody wants to get mad at me for saying it go ahead.
1:45 makes sense. Normally when asking "is this your real hair" they assume it's a wig or extensios, even braids. But white and Asian women also wear wigs and extensions too.
Worse than just assuming it's a wig or extensions, the assumption under this aasumption is the most problematic one. It's the assumption that black women can't have hair or that if they do it's inherently shorter, uglier or messier than hair from other ethno-racial groups. That's the offensive assumption because it's not an assumption they make when they have reasons to believe a white or Asian woman might be wearing a wig.
@@DieezahArtswell I can't blame them because for a long time it's been a very small minority of black women who had long hair, when I was younger if I saw a woman with shoulder length relaxed hair(natural hair care hadn't started yet so most naturals were TWA) I would still ask if that was her hair and you know what would happen next? She would pridefully say yes because in reality this kinky hair most of the time takes work and care to grow long. The only thing I would see as irritating and anger inducing is when I've told you it's my real hair, you can see my scalp and still choose to say I'm lying. The natural hair movement has taught a majority the right way to care for our hair so soon hopefully it will be the minority that has short hair and the assumptions will reduce.
@@butterflygirl01 as someone who has seen a many of bad wig or weave on white and asian women they dont, and this comment still seems passive aggressive to the topic, as it is downright r@cist black women are asked this question.
My hair isn't even long, around shoulder neck length like the woman in the video, and someone asked if it was a wig. I'm like do you just think every black woman is bald or something???🤦♀️🤦♀️
I find it odd that people buy into stereotypes when they would hate to have the same thing done to them. I don’t get the disconnect. If you have been upset by a stereotype placed on you and your race, gender or even sexuality, why would you then do the exact same to other races. It seem like common sense to me but so many people do it.
@@cranburrey Literally. Black women on average are physically more attractive than other races, anyway. I’m surprised it’s even a phrase people have said before- Tho I’ve had ‘you’re fun for an autistic person’, so I guess people just fucking rude for the sake of being rude 😮💨
I hate how twerking became part of our image as blk womaen like it’s a personality trait. And the comment about the one with oreo: as a blk american woman, i’ve been called that. Because it’s of me speaking properly and being educated. There are so many negative stereotypes of blk women being ghetto, ratchet, uneducated, loud, aggressive and angry all the time. I’m none of those. I’m educated, pretty soft spoken, friendly and no nowhere close to being ghetto, angry or ratchet. But they associate the stereotypes of being good, quiet, educated and nice with white people. So they’ve called me “oreo” because of “acting” (of which it is not acting) like what is stereotyped for white people, but i’m black on the outside. The reason it infuriates me is because it’s saying that black people can’t be good, educated, smart, quiet, nice, etc…
Well, I’m very educated and I’m from the poorest part of a inner city area (Detroit) so I have an accent (which is one of the most beautiful parts of my culture), I do use a lot of ‘slang’ amongst friends, and listen to rap, etc. So putting “Oreo/coconut “ in the same category as being educated is a bit stereotypical. ❤ Someone who is black and was raised in a more suburban area might’ve grew up having a whole different experience of living, different accent, different culture, pronounce words more clearly, attended better schools, etc. but could be dumb as a brick. 🤭
@@GotchaBtc funny thing is that a lot of black ppl who grow up in those areas say they felt a uncomfortable at least from some posts that ppl put on quora
@@GotchaBtc in the suburbs, there was this one girl from quora who was telling her experience for something I don’t really remember what the question was but she answered it explaining her life and she said that going to an all white school was draining bc you felt outcast your teachers either didn’t have high expectations for you bc you were black or they just didn’t care, your peers didn’t understand you and other stuff like that. But like I said in the beginning I don’t really remember all of what she said since it’s been a minute, but she did say things along those lines.
THIS IS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!! Asking questions to actual black people instead of having these guys confidently answer questions about topics they have no idea about. Definitely impressed with one of these channels finally listening to the viewers. This is some progress.
I'm from the United States 🇺🇸 and I appreciate you all teaching others what's appropriate and what isn't. It's ok to be curious but it's not ok to be rude!
as a black woman, we are only aggressive sometimes because we don't like bullsh*t and/or dealing with bullsh*t. we can easily see right through people and grasp an idea of their true intentions. and when they annoy you or lie to your face, well, yeah..
Speak for yourself. I'm agressive and blunt almost all the time. It's my personality. I have no problem with putting people in their place. Black people are not a monolith. Some are passive, some are agressive, and others are assertive.
I don’t think you should generalise,this is why they think we have the same personality traits because we ourselves try to generalise…I am black but I have never been aggressive in my entire life and I’m not the best at seeing right through people 😭😭😭I suck in that…I’m always thinking everyone is bound to be nice and I’m very emotional to the point that when I’m angry ,I cry instead of arguing…I hate people yelling or shouting in general
@@DanielleBryce20 Yeah the response to these microaggressions can definitely manifest themselves in different ways for different people. It can also just depend on my mood. I'm generally not a confrontational person but sometimes I will just (calmly) call them out for it especially if I can sense that they know better and are purposely trying to be offensive or edgy or something.
"you look beautiful because you're little bit lighter than normal black girls" I was surprised by a Chinese woman saying that to me and I tried to explain what she means and why it's wrong to think like that
i also got this comment but from a Thai lady who was doing my nails..she asked was my mom my grandma (my mom is darkskin) and i said no she’s my mom and she was so surprised and i told that the other lady (who was also darkskin) was my sister and she was like i’m so light compared to them and that my skin color is pretty…she even tried to compare me and her skin color saying i’m lighter so i’m prettier..and i didn’t educate her because i was so young and didn’t know better and i was just shocked and couldn’t say anything..but i never went back..i wish people would stop thinking like that fr
@@tyliyahchambers7031 these kind if things hurt the most when they compare you to your family or friends, like do you really think putting MY blood down will make me feel good? And it works in the other way too
@@tyliyahchambers7031 Damn I was about to say I got a similar comment from my coffee lady who's Thai. They will use "you look so white" as a compliment
Like that racist yt guy in continental France telling me "but you're not really black" after being called out by my friend and I for blitz-attacking an innocent black guy waiting for his bus not far from us. He replied this to me when I asked him if he'd try doing the same to me too (I was ready for his a**). People had to hold me back...
@@DieezahArts The one drop rule doesn't exist everywhere. It's prominently American. I don't know if you're mixed but don't be surprised if you're not considered black.
The more angry we get when people ask these dumb questions the more it feeds on the stereotype that we're always angry or negative... I hope videos like these can put the emphasis on the fact that it's not ok to continue with these stereotypes and maybe just maybe open the minds of those narrow-minded people... but some people never change...
I agree Natasha. I don't even bother explaining to people why certain things are wrong anymore. It's common sense. And I dont align myself with people who have ulterior motives and or no common sense.
@@jesusisapisces Yeah, as a black woman myself, i’ve had people make such comments and ask questions of why it’s bad or offensive. I just respond with, “go do some research on it, i’m tired of explaining the obvious.” Then they get mad. But yet, I’m stereotyped to be angry and aggressive for even giving that response. Smh.
exactly some ppl never change but the point is that as blck women we should be able to express our emotions without having to walk on eggshells because of stereotypes instead educate ppl or just ignore them
@@anonnnymousthegreat that's not even an 'aggressive' (you know they like that word when it comes to us) response. I think a lot of people just very energy vampiric when it comes to us. They just love our attention and get off on any hope of getting a reaction from us. The Grey Rock method really helps in that regard. ❤
Black women are some of the most cool, laid-back and fun people to be around. A lot of people aren't aware of the hardships or that a lot of their assumptions of what a black women is, is based on stereotypes. Everyone (white, Asian, native) has people that are a certain way. So you should never hold the same level of expectation for everyone down the line.
Omg I had a similar experience where a Japanese guy asked me if I'm Indian and I told him that I am Indian and he proceeded to say "oh you are very beautiful for an Indian" like wtf. So rude! How can they just label an entire race like this just cus we ain't white skin 😭
First of all the ladies were really beautiful, and guys handsome. Everyone seemed kind, willing to learn and listen, and spoke with wisdom. Overall great video and discussions. And I hope to see these ladies in more videos!
@Sandrion🌙🤍 I'm African and both my parents are black and I have a similar skin tone with the girl with a lighter skin complexion, it's *kinda* common here in South Africa South Africa (I'm South African) being a "light skinned black girl" so having a lighter skin complexion as a black person doesn't necessarily mean you're mixed though. But yeah I understand your assumption.
@Yoongiii♡ yeah I know south Africans have light skin usually because of your xhosa ancestry or probably old white lineage. Even golden skin black girls like 2 shades darker than fair skin black girls have mix blood but from long ago. Real black African is pure black.
@@tshegofatsothulo1193 you have white dna in there somewhere, your parents too. The only way to have skin as light as hers is northern genes. Or one of your parent is North African/white
The guy in black is the king of clap back😂❤ . Am glad this video gonna educate lots of people. As an African with dreadlocks i have strangers touching my hair at times without my permission and that's so frustrating.
I was in Korea last December, and rented a hanbok near Gyeongbokgung. The stylist satrted to do my hair and suddenly the manager came and just slooowly started pulling one curl to see how long was, and said "wow". I just said in korean: amazing, right? And he looked at me, eyes wide open and said "oh you know korean? Yes amazing hair..." It was kinda funny tho...
I loved HanSeul being the defender! And Esther so clearly and nicely explaining the effect of these actions. ☺️ ❤ Instead of asking a black person if their hair is real just say it's nice please ☺️
Now this is how you break stereotypes & misconceptions. I love the fact that they took the time to present a diverse panel of Black women from different nationalities, different backgrounds & different appearances. It gives a physical reinforcement that all Black people are not the same & Black people live all over the world.
The "I see you are mixed with white, therefore more beautiful" is something I've gathered from J-drama and K-drama and other sources. Asians apparently say it to eachother, too. But they think it's less impressive that a girl is pretty (lighter skin and higher nose) if she is actually part white.
Huh... same... especially the hair question, the "where are you really from" one, the "You're pretty for a black girl" one and so on and so forth. Never got the ones about twerking or about the lips...
I got a fucked story about Oreo. I had a friend in high school (my high school was predominantly black and he was black) whose last name was Oriole. But a lot of our teachers pronunciations made it sound like Oreo. So everyone called him Oreo. Then in a class we were all introducing ourselves to a new teacher and we were all calling him Oreo and the teacher was like "why do you guys call him Oreo? Does he act white?" And we were all like "no dude. That's his last name." I dunno if you've ever seen a black man go pale or blush red with embarrassment, but this teacher did both. He was like "oh shit I am SO SORRY!!!" But Oreo was like "nah, I get that shit all the time. You're good."
Oreo, coconut, bounty (as in the chocolate bar)... They all mean the same thing when used to label a black/ brown person. Sadly, they are mainly used within our own communities by people who see us as overly ambitious or not sufficiently embracing our own culture. It's a shame, really.
It’s good that you brought this up, because the discrimination within our own communities can also be damaging. I was called “Oreo” throughout school by other black kids exclusively. I spoke to my mother about it recently and she just found it funny, which can be disheartening as well :/
My dad used to call my mom bounty. Even tho she is brown on the outside, we are have the same white bones. He meant this in the kindest way possible to say that we are a equal. ( and my mom loves bounties😂) Its sad to see how every word can be used as a curse word by someone else..
@@thisdoodo5957 It’s not necessarily that we see these words as curse words, it just highlights it’s just a completely ridiculous concept to pick on someone who “acts white” or behaves in a way that the rest of their community views as “different”. Tbh I’ve never heard anyone being called ‘bounty’ or anything else in an endearing way, so it’s nice that your parents have that playful interaction.
@7:21-7:23 I love that response! 😂 I love to see videos like this because it creates a safe space where people can have a conversation without it being ugly and we can actually learn about different cultures. I have no problems when people ask me about my experience as a biracial person. As long as the person asks me without making it offensive, I will answer it as honest as possible. That's how we learn about each other! ❤
I laugh because it's really what I do right back at them and CHILE! The anger that arises from them is phenomenal. So you had no problem asking me and but I uno reverse it and now YOU'RE anger...The audacity
“You’re beautiful for a black girl” it’s upsetting to hear that, considering that everyone is beautiful, and people automatically put lots of black people into the stereotype that they’re dangerous or rude. I love this video ❤
That’s the most nauseating and disgusting and insensitive comment anyone can say to a BP. Whomever is making these comments haven’t a clue that they’re insulting the person they think they’re complementing.
I'm not even black but I am asian. But I always think that they are : - physically strong - great skin - great hair - great lips - great teeth - great voice - great sense of humour - great dancing MashaAllah, praising God for creating them.
Salaam. Black people are not generally physically stronger than other groups. This assumptions has had negative consequences that has led to people thinking black people are more dangerous, doctors think black people cannot feel pain because they're "stronger" and so black people die more often from easily treatable issues, etc. I hope people stop vocalizing and internalizing this belief.
Well, this is very generalising and stereotypical, even though you're being positive. Let's just remember that within every ethnic group, the variability is enormous! There are pretty, less pretty, fun and boring, smart and not so smart, sexy and not sexy, good singers and bad ones, etc. Oh, you're Asian, so you must be good at maths! Oh, you're black, so you have natural rhythm! Oh, you're Jewish, so you like art, bla bla. It is all stereotypes, which is human, but not helpful.
South Korea is so tech savvy & has become more and more the place to see..It's hurtful that this very silly sort of thinking towards persons of colour [especially females] is so common-place.
about the black women being angry thing.. that is so triggering and so stereotypical. I think as a collective, black PEOPLE can be more daring and outspoken when we don't like something so maybe that's why others may see us as "loud" or "angry". Especially in Korea where they seem more conservative and women are supposed to fit into these gender roles, obey what the man says, not talk back -- when a black woman speaks her mind and let's her know it's not okay to say or do something, it may seem like a forbidden act maybe in Korea. Just my opinion.
oh I hate this stereotypes so much. it’s almost like you can’t win bc even if you aren’t aggressive, but you validly express being upset about something you get painted as aggressive. why do we have to walk on eggshells bc of others’ prejudices??
hmm...i think It defeats the purpose of wanting people to stop stereotyping us as a whole if we are just going to go ahead and do the same thing but with different attributes. outspokenness, and daringness as attributes entirely depends on the kind of society, culture, country, family, environment, etc you come from. There are some black women who mesh well with the conservativism of korea, and some who dont. there are some black women who are louder and more outspoken, and some who aren't. there are some black women who are more outspoken, and some who aren't. The other day i watched a video of a black woman from america who travelled to another west african country and hated it there because she assumed the people, especially the women, were going to be more like her. She started trash talking the country and the women because they weren't outspoken and she saw it as a negative thing. we tend to do it to ourselves too which is why id rather keep it as everyone is different period.
I remember working with this woman and saying that I loved her hair styles; and how does she have time to have different hair styles etc. She told me that she wears a wig. Never guessed nor would I even say "is that your real hair / do you have extensions" or anything rude.
Everything about this video was the truth! I jumped up so many times on this video reacting in a way they couldn't! 😂I grew up in an all-white private school and the countless times I've gotten "you're pretty for a black girl" or how nobody would believe I was fully black because I have waist-length hair and hazel eyes. Black girls have hair! I was so thankful they explained the hair-washing thing too. And yes, I've had to deal with "being black but acting like white folks" so I'm counted as not really black...nonsense. Great video!
One thing I hate is when I change up my hairstyle (for example, install braids extensions) and every nonblack person feels a need to have a conversation with me about my hair and ask 50 questions about it. If you like it, just tell me you like my hair and move along. If you don’t like it, keep your opinion to yourself. I don’t need to hear it.
Thank you so much for making this video!! I'm a black American and the one I hate the most is "You're pretty for a black girl" right along with the fact that you HAVE to stay calm or people will see you as 'that angry black person' even when you have every right to be angry with their indecency.
😂. I've never heard that Oreo comment before.. what kind of awful person has to be so crude in the mind that they would invent that, then spread it around for others to use it. I'm sorry, it's more funny than offensive that anyone can be so rude. My gosh, no. No, don't say that to someone. It's like accusing someone of being a phony based off of your stereotype. I really do think that the anger comes from exhaustion. We hear stereotypes so often or rude comments so much that at some point we just go off without meaning to. 97% of the time, I'm that ask me anything no matter how rude you think it might be, I'll answer thoughtfully. I really won't get mad if it's genuine curiosity and not something like you're just riffing crude comments for a personal laugh or laugh with your buddies. Then, I'll give what I feel your rudeness deserves. Not physical harm, just verbal to the point where you'd of rather I hit you. And the kinder the tone, the more it stings. I dance, but I've never tried twerking so I don't know 😁.
I’m a black american woman and was called that growing up quite a bit. It infuriates me to the fullest too. And the worst part is that other black people within the black community call black people like me that term too just because we don’t feed into all the negative stereotypes placed on us. They associate being quiet, nice, educated and speaking properly with being white. So if a black person is seen doing these things, they call us “oreo”. But when they do that, they are also saying they believe black people can’t be nice, educated, quiet and speak properly.
@@anonnnymousthegreat You are so right. Oreo was a VERY common term when I was younger, mid to late '90s. Its true it mostly occurred within the black community which made it all the more sad. It hurts much more when sayings like this come from people who looked just like you. Like they are pushing you out or not good enough to be around them. The only difference between me and them was speaking properly and having a much broader education from being a military kid. It really hurt back then.
@@nirillio334 I was a military kid too. And thinking about it, Oreo sounds like something my cousins would call me. They were forever insulting me and my sisters but mostly they called us stuck up or boogie and would laugh whenever we talked. Deciding we're not black enough. There's just no place to just be anymore. It sucks.
@@anonnnymousthegreatI get that a lot too since I'm Caribbean-American so Ebonics is not part of my culture. I won't say that standard English is a better dialect though: Ebonics has a lot of cross cultural and economic power too. I wish code-switching wasn't so necessary
Even as an overseas Indian I get called oreo or coconut a lot of the time, unfortunately I think all POC people have a word like that which is used against them
Thank you for this video, it was well done. After having been on this earth for a while and traveled quite a few places in and outside of the US, I’ve encountered these situations regularly. Most of the time it’s because people are curious not having been exposed to Black people in real life, they don’t realize that they are being rude/racist. Of course, sometimes it’s deliberately racist. I try to respond in the same way as I believe every opportunity is a chance to educate someone that Black people are the same as they are, we eat, love, live, sleep, etc. the same way. We can’t all dance, sing or play sports. We want the same things in life-money in the bank, a roof over our heads, food in the refrigerator, a decent job, and respect among other things. Instead of being angry (which honestly, is sometimes my first reaction) I try to initiate a conversation. You would be surprised at how far a simple conversation can go to clear up misconceptions.
I think it's disgusting when our own people call us oreo for speaking proper and having a good job. We're considered to be acting "white" or we think we're better than them. No, I just want to pay my rent on time and not be on the streets getting shot at for a bag of weed, or living with the guilt that the neighborhood kid overdosed on cocaine I sold him. Or me having to live my life knowing that a mother is crying because her child was killed in a drive-by because he was selling on someone's turf. Those scenarios of living in the hood aren't something I want for myself. I want a life where I can go home, in a safe neighborhood, no drugs being sold, no drive bys, none of that. And I like having conversations that include normal words without referring to someone as a b****, or the n word. I went to school, found a job, and worked my butt off to be where I am. Sorry that you think I'm better than you. I'm not. I just made better choices, is all. You could have, too.
With the are blk girls agressive questions, I find it interesting. Because anybody can be agressive.but because of media ppl like to portray black women as aggressive simpley because we know how to speak foe ourselves and not take disrespect lightly. Even if u do it politely they still call u aggr4ssive but if your skin was a diffrent color they would use other words. Interesting.
I think the guy in black is a good man fit for a foreign relationship. You can tell he is respectful of women especially of their culture and would gladly respect them in his own culture. I strongly advise you to find a foreign love. The other guy was curious and you could tell that he got quiet when more questions were being seen as predgidous (don't know if I spelled that right) so observant more likely. I think he needed to be more active participant for this kind of video. Girls were amazing, and I liked personally how you got them with their different skin tones so that can be brought up with some questions. Also, I liked how respectful everyone was.
Even though the phone these men (ESPECIALLY the man in the black shirt) makes me feel so safe how he is calling everything out and not afraid to say he will stand up for these (and women in general that's treated like this). 💗💗💖
It’s crazy black women EVERYWHERE experience the same phrases. I would’ve never thought they would’ve heard the classic “pretty for a Black girl” or “I can tell your mixed with white”. All the way from Texas, thanks for the representation
This in fact is very educational and I hope a lot of people watch this bc still in year 2023 Black women get asked this rude shit😩 I need ALL folks to understand it's just rude, simply so don't approach and ask these things.
Keep doing these, they are very educative esp since Koreans don't know a lot about black people but are open to learn. Next time if you can bring others from Jamaica, Africa, Asia, Blasians... they might have different experiences. Otherwise, thanks all 5 of you for doing this and for being open to learn and teach.
With the are you African or Jamaican question confused me they could have said Caribbean because Jamaica isn’t the only place other than africa where black people come from 😭 as someone who is mainly Jamaican+st Lucian
Jasmin's statement" not everyone is like that" is correct. Xenophobia exist amongst all races. I'm American with blue eyes and I hear references such as blue eye soul as it relates to music, or called cracker because of my white skin. This stuff doesn't bother me but I can see how it may bother others. We have many Asian business owners in America and us white guys always say I bet they tell round eye jokes when we leave. lol. The three ladies on set look beautiful and more important, confident in how they responded to the questions.
Your experience a white person is incomparable. What was addressed was anti-blackness not simply xenophobia. These are questions that black only get in Korea. These stereotypes are universal. We are faced with ignorance everywhere because we are black. You as a white person can not experience racism or “anti-whiteness” so no you don’t understand. White people are the ones who perpetuated so many stereotypes about black ppl threw media and now that’s all many countries know of black ppl. And you must not know what xenophobia is it’s not amongst races it’s amongst nationalities. It’s discrimination and prejudice towards someone because they are from a different country not because of your race.
In Asia, despite being relatively friendly to white foreigners, there are still prejudices against White people. Asians can be subtly prejudiced too but since white tourists don't speak the language, whites end up being clueless that they're being discriminated against. Common phrases you'll hear Asians say against whites are the following: - "They're not good looking, they're just white." - This phrase refers to white people being fair skinned only and people say that if white people gets a tan skin and black hair like many Asians, those whites are actually ugly. That's why Asians find whites who gets a tan quite weird-looking. - "Whites only go to Asia because they're too ugly in their country." - This phrase refers to those white men who visit Asia. Many Asians automatically assume that if you're white and single and you're travelling around Asia, you're only finding prostitutes, and not reliable whatsoever. This is most likely what people is on their mind when they stare at you if they see you alone with an Asian friend who is a girl. This prejudice is more prevalent in Southeast Asia where white men usually travel alone. - "Your eyes are so big, it's gonna fall off" - This refers to big-eyed Whites and people say it as a joke that pokes fun of your face. - "Your blue eyes are scary" - This is a less common phrase but some people actually find blue eyes scary. - "You're so white, you look like a girl" - This is more towards boys especially those who have fair skin and can resort to bullying since Asian idea of being a real boy should be out in the sun and gets tanned.
I have dark skin but my parents come from a little island in the pacific. I have no blood in the history of discrimination but I still experience it and it is inconvenient, to say the least. Looking from the outside, it is obvious why you or anyone who shares the same ethnic attributes as you wouldn't feel offended by these rude comments or slurs. I can see why you wouldn't want to be called a slave foreman but if they did call you "round eye" it shouldn't bother you when people with round eyes are common in America; it's like someone with 3 arms saying "look at that two arms, stupid 2 arms, go back to your country 2 arms". If you were in a country where the majority has let's say Han Chinese features then yes, I would say it's rude to other you because you have rounder eyes. But like you I know people who get offended over things that I couldn't comprehend feeling anything about.
@@ZetteEdon I agree with your analogy. America has so many different races I don't even pay attention to the differences because not only do we experience it everyday these people are our friends.
These young ladies did a great job in responding to these questions thoughtfully. As a Black Caribbean woman living in UK/Europe I've heard a lot of those questions and they can be triggering along with being offensive. Just listening to the questions, I had flashbacks to being p*ssed off. As this was for educational purposes, I think they provided good answers and examples. Well done and shout out to the guy on the left who was annoyed with the ppl who asked such rude questions! Lol
Oh my goodness. My sisters in South Korea spoke about the stares and disrespect they've faced there. I knew it was Jealousy, because of how the comments were addressed to them. But, for us racism is like an annoying fly 🪰 you ignore until you have to address it. We're very educated women, so when we see the racism we already know where that person is coming from. Personally, I've only met one racist Korean woman before, I just kept being kind to her. Constantly. Why? Because love conquers hate. Then, one day when I was at work, working in the elementary classroom, look who walked in with her grandson who was afraid to come to his new class? The same woman. She was shocked, she was like, " What!? You work here?! I said yes, how are you? Then she told her grandson, stay with her, she will watch over you don't worry. I never showed an unkind gesture to this woman. Never, said an unkind word to her. Even now the thing that was done, to me when I first met her, I will not mention it. Because I have proven the Bible to be right. Love conquers all. Now, patience... is another thing entirely for me. The Lord is working on my heart in this area. Maybe one day I will grow to be like Him. But, until then. I'm just flawed. I LOVE YOU Jesus ❤️.
Thank you for showing us not only beautiful women but, the cultural side, the throw back....the questions...there is a while universe of things to ask.....👏👏to the ladies ❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹
Anything you ask, please do it kindly. Start with is it ok if I ask.. don't point and go why is, why do you, etc. It makes people upset. But don't be afraid to approach black people. We're not inhuman nor scary. We're some of the nicest people on the planet, it's shocking to us that anyone thinks otherwise and it isn't just due to media. Look at how your own race is portrayed.. has that ever been 100% accurate? No. So don't think it of others, please. Really. Don't think, I'd like black friends. Go on over and make some. We're loud because we enjoy with vigor not because we're scary or upset 😂. I promise. You'll love having black friends.
Legit like look at black TikTok have of the time we doing some dumb sh*t like getting on our parents nerves, eating cereal at night only to then get scared cause it’s dark and we heard an unknown sound, in a parking lot of a store doing dumb stuff like screaming for no reason or making edits with friends, trying to jump in the ball pit in the middle of walmart, we don’t turn our lights on in the car bc our parents lied and tricked us into thinking it was illegal, we scared of the paranormal and are always yelling at people in horror movies to not go there or to leave and run like legit we just weird and goofy when people get to really know us 😂❤
Agreed with everything up until the "we are loud" part because it's kind of part of the issue of generalizing and stereotypes. You may be loud but theres a whole bunch of us who are not. Everyone is different regardless of race. 😅

The oreo thing in France it's also "Bounty" a chocolate black in exterior and white in interior, but the "You're pretty for a black girl" is the most popular for me , it's hurt so bad like why ? Can't I just be pretty for a woman?!?! Just love the girls and the boys here❤ (especially the French one who talk a lot😊)
Nice video. And it's refreshing to have Black women representing other countries than the US. I like the variety. Because really, I'm a mixed dark-skinned French, and I relate more with some white French people or black Caribbean people... Or Brazilian or Dominican women... than Afro-Americans. They sound so aliens to me (not in a bad way, it's actually fascinating) so I'm always a bit puzzled by the representation sometimes. We all have common "issues" but "Black" is not a culture or a mentality. It's just a physical trait and common issues relate to that (skin, hair...). I appreciate the voices they all rose here, and the different backgrounds! Side note, I love the British girl poised and quiet voice! And the dress of the Swiss girl ❤ Edit : I'm grateful I've only been usually asked two of those questions : where are you really from (which I don't find offensive anymore) + is your hair real (that still makes my eyes roll especially if they touch it without asking). But I did hear some darker friends of mine been told : "you're pretty for a black girl" and that triggers me... Also, I used to live in the Caribbeans even though I'm not a native and since then, I like twerking and I'm not ashamed. But I'm bad at it and it's really funny 😁.
Oh please stop that nonsense. Most European people are either African or Caribbean. You have to be mix for you not to understand black Americans. Caribbean black are literally the same as black Americans just from North America while Caribbean are Central America. Same similar history. Both Caribbean and black Americans have similar culture to African since they was African. So what nonsense you talking about. I been to fence and United Kingdom. I know some African in Belgium \, Spain, etc All understand black Americans.
@@dddd5989 In France, French Caribbeans distance themselves from African plus they are more mixed than African Americans on average. A lot look up to African Americans though. But Black is not a culture. Because of struggle and racism we would tend to feel a connection and to support each other but we don't have the same culture. As a west African, even other West Africans cultures don't represent me. Even people from my own country don't have the same culture as my people. There are things we have in common but every society has built their own culture. Hence two neighboring African ethnicities will be so different that their cultures can clash. I'm happy when any group of black people shine positively and I'm sad when they appear negatively because I understand the impact it will have on all of us.
@@dddd5989 it's'ok to have different experiences. Mine is different from yours and when I tell you I relate less with Afro-Americans, I really do. I know because I was a whole summer in the US and even them couldn't understand my mentality. It's OK, we still had fun together. I know because every time I watch American shows, it seems very exotic to me. It's OK, I still have fun watching them. But the way they choose to present themselves overall. The way race issues are addressed in the US. The way they relate to Africa and the rest of the world. I don't see myself in it at all. But it's OK. Not relating to something doesn't mean rejecting or denigrating. After all, they are Americans in addition to being black and I just don't relate at all with Americans in general. I just know I'm glad to see a variety of black représentation. And I stand by my point. : "Black" is not a culture.
@@malikasilla1475 the what’s your problem, say you, yourself don’t get along with this group, make a video of a video about a type of culture from a certain country in Africa Or about a certain tribe culture and most Africans tribe or country will have something similar or close to it. From dance, food, clothing etc. African didn’t or ever had a country. Those were created by white European. It was only tribe and ethnic groups. Example Fulani people are in most west, central and other African region. Black Americans are more mix just as Caribbean. They even be claiming modern mix people as black. You think those mix.biracial people once in segregation,Jim crow Time who was forced to identify as black with 50 black in them only. Are gone. I done seen many black Americans with 10-40 white or native Americans in them. Everyone is different. It’s stupid to say you get along with this culture. Cause even siblings are different, It’s common sense, nobody and nothing is ever exactly the same
@@malikasilla1475 any black Any continent are just African. Point blank period. You do braids/ wear waist beads/ twerk/ voodoo/ rap music/ but last time I check you said black people all different
One more which you seem to have forgotten, understandably: "Oh, you speak so well for a black person! How come?" The problem with that question, regardless what language the black person is speaking, is that it comes from two assumptions (one of them very offensive): 1/You're necessarily a foreigner (not true in every case) 2/Black people aren't as intellectually capable as others or are not native speakers of whatever language they're speaking so aren't expected to speak well (again, completely wrong)... It's offensive, even more so if the individual in question is not a foreigner in your country or was raised there. It happens to black people in many countries, including those with large black communities...
All three ladies here are beautiful by any standard. As a Korean American, I think these ladies are very beautiful and have great personalities. People do ask some really dumb questions that are offensive. I think this stems from ignorance more so than outward racism.
I love how you guys are always exploring sensitive subjects, but very important topics in today's society 👏 👌 The young ladies were straight- forward and honest. The guys reactions were also great and to the point. Especially, the one that stated to give it back to the offender as they try to be nasty to you. I have never been one easily offended and have always had my white friends or colleagues ask me questions about black hair, colorism, hair products, tanning, male endowment and rearing children, and just the different ways black folk do things. We laugh about it and just put it out in the open. I have always been the "coconut" on the jobs and in many events I attended. I am a professional person, and often it comes off to others as trying to act or be white when you speak a certainway, but really you're being professional and educated. It's a real thing! And often comes from other blacks. Keep having these kinds of truthful and enlightening conversations. It's the best direction to change ❤
Finally y’all did an educational video with black women. I want to see more videos with these girls , I like their personalities 😊
Two black and one mix

I’m glad that the panel didn’t just say, “Some Koreans don’t know any better. It’s not racism.” That has been the response to these types of questions for far too long. What happened to treat people the way you would want to be treated? They wouldn’t ask these questions to a white woman or an Asian woman so they should not ask them to black women.
Kudos to everyone on the panel fir being educated, cultured, and well spoken
Also these women speak Korean so well! I’m impressed.
I agree with all three of your points!
You said it well
Factsss
Actually, they would ask these questions to a white person (and any other person). The reason for this is because they don't see foreigners or people who don't look like them often. There are many people in certain parts of Africa who have never seen white people. The first time they see white people, they have many questions (even some that may seem offensive). Is that racism? No.
@@tanayaberrywhat are you taking about ?? No they wouont ask white ppl the types of questions that they ask white ppl. Even in Africa as you’ve stated or most poc countries treats white ppl different bc of white supremacy
As a Black Woman , globally people need to learn to obviously see past our body and hair because that’s all they ever ask about . Never question about hobbies, food, last movie you watched, like NOTHING BUT objectification
The entire globe was colonized and enslaved, they are thought by their colonizers. Thus, deal with the roots of all that issue not individually.
Ikr. Annoying af
This is so true.
that's a really good point!
Exactly! So annoying. It's like as a black person your existence starts and ends with your skin color... there's more to it than our skin color
i want to ask why do some asian think that black girls are easy. but in every culture there are easy girls just like they are not some that are easy
because of pop culture
Like, dude said I guess because they see it on TV, and unfortunately, that's how we are portrayed in "pop culture."" People need to learn that not everything they see on the screen is true. Get out there, meet real people, and see for yourselves.And this is especially dangerous when learning about a different culture. For example people thinking that living in korea is like being in a kdrama...
i’d say it’s mostly based on stereotypes and that black girls are more likely foreign, so they have a culture/language barrier which allows men to pry more on them bc they’re unfamiliar with that country/ and are more likely to have less friends (but this can also be applied to all foreigners in korea)
Cause most of them have never dated them🤣🤣
Well, idk how much caucasian and blacks differ in sexual behavior. But compared to koreans I get the impression both(white and blacks) are considerably more promiscuous. And if you are more promiscuous it follows that you are easier.
P.S:. I am not saying it to criticize any specific race, I care mostly about the individual rather than the race. But if somebody wants to get mad at me for saying it go ahead.
1:45 makes sense. Normally when asking "is this your real hair" they assume it's a wig or extensios, even braids. But white and Asian women also wear wigs and extensions too.
Worse than just assuming it's a wig or extensions, the assumption under this aasumption is the most problematic one. It's the assumption that black women can't have hair or that if they do it's inherently shorter, uglier or messier than hair from other ethno-racial groups. That's the offensive assumption because it's not an assumption they make when they have reasons to believe a white or Asian woman might be wearing a wig.
They wear weaves that match their hair texture. On the other hand black women typically wear Asian hair.
@@DieezahArtswell I can't blame them because for a long time it's been a very small minority of black women who had long hair, when I was younger if I saw a woman with shoulder length relaxed hair(natural hair care hadn't started yet so most naturals were TWA) I would still ask if that was her hair and you know what would happen next? She would pridefully say yes because in reality this kinky hair most of the time takes work and care to grow long. The only thing I would see as irritating and anger inducing is when I've told you it's my real hair, you can see my scalp and still choose to say I'm lying.
The natural hair movement has taught a majority the right way to care for our hair so soon hopefully it will be the minority that has short hair and the assumptions will reduce.
@@butterflygirl01 as someone who has seen a many of bad wig or weave on white and asian women they dont, and this comment still seems passive aggressive to the topic, as it is downright r@cist black women are asked this question.
My hair isn't even long, around shoulder neck length like the woman in the video, and someone asked if it was a wig. I'm like do you just think every black woman is bald or something???🤦♀️🤦♀️
I find it odd that people buy into stereotypes when they would hate to have the same thing done to them. I don’t get the disconnect. If you have been upset by a stereotype placed on you and your race, gender or even sexuality, why would you then do the exact same to other races. It seem like common sense to me but so many people do it.
I’ve been trying to wrap my head around this as well. common sense isn’t very common I guess 😞
Especially when it comes from an other minority, so disappointing.
Exactly, I thought humans are supposed wise, different from animals.
My exact thoughts and it's every race that does this, so crazy.
Yeah
“You’re pretty for a black girl”
Like black women aren’t the hottest Goddesses to walk the earth!
Thank you ☺️
ehhh
It makes me feel weird whenever someone says that. Like there are many other black women out there who are insanely pretty 🙁
@@cranburrey Literally.
Black women on average are physically more attractive than other races, anyway.
I’m surprised it’s even a phrase people have said before-
Tho I’ve had ‘you’re fun for an autistic person’, so I guess people just fucking rude for the sake of being rude 😮💨
I wonder o😄
I hate how twerking became part of our image as blk womaen like it’s a personality trait.
And the comment about the one with oreo: as a blk american woman, i’ve been called that. Because it’s of me speaking properly and being educated. There are so many negative stereotypes of blk women being ghetto, ratchet, uneducated, loud, aggressive and angry all the time. I’m none of those. I’m educated, pretty soft spoken, friendly and no nowhere close to being ghetto, angry or ratchet. But they associate the stereotypes of being good, quiet, educated and nice with white people. So they’ve called me “oreo” because of “acting” (of which it is not acting) like what is stereotyped for white people, but i’m black on the outside. The reason it infuriates me is because it’s saying that black people can’t be good, educated, smart, quiet, nice, etc…
Well, I’m very educated and I’m from the poorest part of a inner city area (Detroit) so I have an accent (which is one of the most beautiful parts of my culture), I do use a lot of ‘slang’ amongst friends, and listen to rap, etc. So putting “Oreo/coconut “ in the same category as being educated is a bit stereotypical. ❤ Someone who is black and was raised in a more suburban area might’ve grew up having a whole different experience of living, different accent, different culture, pronounce words more clearly, attended better schools, etc. but could be dumb as a brick. 🤭
@@GotchaBtc funny thing is that a lot of black ppl who grow up in those areas say they felt a uncomfortable at least from some posts that ppl put on quora
@@kywillis948 what do mean uncomfortable? black people who grew up in the hood or black people who grew in the suburbs?
@@GotchaBtc in the suburbs, there was this one girl from quora who was telling her experience for something I don’t really remember what the question was but she answered it explaining her life and she said that going to an all white school was draining bc you felt outcast your teachers either didn’t have high expectations for you bc you were black or they just didn’t care, your peers didn’t understand you and other stuff like that. But like I said in the beginning I don’t really remember all of what she said since it’s been a minute, but she did say things along those lines.
we can thank people like meghan the stallion and all the vulgar black rappers for that image.
Thanks for letting these intelligent, beautiful women be heard (and seen). They're impressive young ladies.
THIS IS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!! Asking questions to actual black people instead of having these guys confidently answer questions about topics they have no idea about. Definitely impressed with one of these channels finally listening to the viewers. This is some progress.
I'm from the United States 🇺🇸 and I appreciate you all teaching others what's appropriate and what isn't. It's ok to be curious but it's not ok to be rude!
as a black woman, we are only aggressive sometimes because we don't like bullsh*t and/or dealing with bullsh*t. we can easily see right through people and grasp an idea of their true intentions. and when they annoy you or lie to your face, well, yeah..
we've been through and are still going through so much...we have no choice but to be on guard most times to protect ourselves
Exactly
Speak for yourself. I'm agressive and blunt almost all the time. It's my personality. I have no problem with putting people in their place. Black people are not a monolith. Some are passive, some are agressive, and others are assertive.
I don’t think you should generalise,this is why they think we have the same personality traits because we ourselves try to generalise…I am black but I have never been aggressive in my entire life and I’m not the best at seeing right through people 😭😭😭I suck in that…I’m always thinking everyone is bound to be nice and I’m very emotional to the point that when I’m angry ,I cry instead of arguing…I hate people yelling or shouting in general
@@DanielleBryce20 Yeah the response to these microaggressions can definitely manifest themselves in different ways for different people. It can also just depend on my mood. I'm generally not a confrontational person but sometimes I will just (calmly) call them out for it especially if I can sense that they know better and are purposely trying to be offensive or edgy or something.
"you look beautiful because you're little bit lighter than normal black girls" I was surprised by a Chinese woman saying that to me and I tried to explain what she means and why it's wrong to think like that

The one drop rule doesn't exist everywhere. It's prominently American. I don't know if you're mixed but don't be surprised if you're not considered black.
The more angry we get when people ask these dumb questions the more it feeds on the stereotype that we're always angry or negative... I hope videos like these can put the emphasis on the fact that it's not ok to continue with these stereotypes and maybe just maybe open the minds of those narrow-minded people... but some people never change...
I agree Natasha. I don't even bother explaining to people why certain things are wrong anymore. It's common sense. And I dont align myself with people who have ulterior motives and or no common sense.
Then you just turn around the question to them.

Yeah, as a black woman myself, i’ve had people make such comments and ask questions of why it’s bad or offensive. I just respond with, “go do some research on it, i’m tired of explaining the obvious.” Then they get mad. But yet, I’m stereotyped to be angry and aggressive for even giving that response. Smh.

@@anonnnymousthegreat that's not even an 'aggressive' (you know they like that word when it comes to us) response. I think a lot of people just very energy vampiric when it comes to us.

Black women are some of the most cool, laid-back and fun people to be around. A lot of people aren't aware of the hardships or that a lot of their assumptions of what a black women is, is based on stereotypes. Everyone (white, Asian, native) has people that are a certain way. So you should never hold the same level of expectation for everyone down the line.

Now this is how you break stereotypes & misconceptions. I love the fact that they took the time to present a diverse panel of Black women from different nationalities, different backgrounds & different appearances. It gives a physical reinforcement that all Black people are not the same & Black people live all over the world.
The "I see you are mixed with white, therefore more beautiful" is something I've gathered from J-drama and K-drama and other sources. Asians apparently say it to eachother, too. But they think it's less impressive that a girl is pretty (lighter skin and higher nose) if she is actually part white.
I could buy a mansion with the amount of times I've been asked these questions. Love the video and the stereotypes addressed 😂😅

I got a fucked story about Oreo. I had a friend in high school (my high school was predominantly black and he was black) whose last name was Oriole. But a lot of our teachers pronunciations made it sound like Oreo. So everyone called him Oreo. Then in a class we were all introducing ourselves to a new teacher and we were all calling him Oreo and the teacher was like "why do you guys call him Oreo? Does he act white?" And we were all like "no dude. That's his last name."
I dunno if you've ever seen a black man go pale or blush red with embarrassment, but this teacher did both. He was like "oh shit I am SO SORRY!!!" But Oreo was like "nah, I get that shit all the time. You're good."
that's kind messed huh
i always thought oreo meant that youre half black and half white lmaooo
Oreo, coconut, bounty (as in the chocolate bar)... They all mean the same thing when used to label a black/ brown person. Sadly, they are mainly used within our own communities by people who see us as overly ambitious or not sufficiently embracing our own culture. It's a shame, really.
I think the sad part about me is that I’ve been called white girl by white girls more than the black community
@@kywillis948 yes that is sad. That's a whole other level of rude.
It’s good that you brought this up, because the discrimination within our own communities can also be damaging. I was called “Oreo” throughout school by other black kids exclusively. I spoke to my mother about it recently and she just found it funny, which can be disheartening as well :/
My dad used to call my mom bounty. Even tho she is brown on the outside, we are have the same white bones. He meant this in the kindest way possible to say that we are a equal. ( and my mom loves bounties😂) Its sad to see how every word can be used as a curse word by someone else..

hello Muslim sister💞💓
Salaam.
Black people are not generally physically stronger than other groups. This assumptions has had negative consequences that has led to people thinking black people are more dangerous, doctors think black people cannot feel pain because they're "stronger" and so black people die more often from easily treatable issues, etc. I hope people stop vocalizing and internalizing this belief.
@@silverhakusho Yes, exactly. I appreciate the compliments but many of us are not physically strong. I for example am quite weak
Well, this is very generalising and stereotypical, even though you're being positive. Let's just remember that within every ethnic group, the variability is enormous! There are pretty, less pretty, fun and boring, smart and not so smart, sexy and not sexy, good singers and bad ones, etc. Oh, you're Asian, so you must be good at maths! Oh, you're black, so you have natural rhythm! Oh, you're Jewish, so you like art, bla bla. It is all stereotypes, which is human, but not helpful.
Iam black from Africa am skinny asf not all of us are strong and am a man the only way I can become stronger is if I work out
HanSeul was def crushin😭
He was so cute in this one 😅
On who?
I love Iyanu's voice! It's so calming and soft!💕 Esther is really cute and have a beautiful smile💖And Jasmine has a feminine and elegant vibe💓
South Korea is so tech savvy & has become more and more the place to see..It's hurtful that this very silly sort of thinking towards persons of colour [especially females] is so common-place.
It happens in every country tho racism occurs in every gender race sexual orientation
@@brennathecatlover4360 why are you in every comment section trying to justify racism against black women? Are you Koreaboo?
We need more contents with them!
about the black women being angry thing.. that is so triggering and so stereotypical. I think as a collective, black PEOPLE can be more daring and outspoken when we don't like something so maybe that's why others may see us as "loud" or "angry". Especially in Korea where they seem more conservative and women are supposed to fit into these gender roles, obey what the man says, not talk back -- when a black woman speaks her mind and let's her know it's not okay to say or do something, it may seem like a forbidden act maybe in Korea. Just my opinion.
oh I hate this stereotypes so much. it’s almost like you can’t win bc even if you aren’t aggressive, but you validly express being upset about something you get painted as aggressive. why do we have to walk on eggshells bc of others’ prejudices??
@@yeondamie48 right!!! why do the victims have to change ourselves and our attitudes to make the perpetrators comfortable??
hmm...i think It defeats the purpose of wanting people to stop stereotyping us as a whole if we are just going to go ahead and do the same thing but with different attributes. outspokenness, and daringness as attributes entirely depends on the kind of society, culture, country, family, environment, etc you come from. There are some black women who mesh well with the conservativism of korea, and some who dont. there are some black women who are louder and more outspoken, and some who aren't. there are some black women who are more outspoken, and some who aren't. The other day i watched a video of a black woman from america who travelled to another west african country and hated it there because she assumed the people, especially the women, were going to be more like her. She started trash talking the country and the women because they weren't outspoken and she saw it as a negative thing. we tend to do it to ourselves too which is why id rather keep it as everyone is different period.
Bc we had to be outspoken and daring in order to gain rights as a human being 🤦♀️
its honestly just an american thing really. Americans are loud, outspoken, and get angry easily. I hate when people think its only a race thing
I would love for this to be shown in every school throughout the world, as part of cultural sensitivity education 💖
Please allow me to say this..
You three women are absolutely gorgeous 🥲
I appreciate the open and honest responses to the questions, no one answered with things they think sound nice.
Can I take you out beautiful black queen
You are very beautiful, can I take you out sometime
I remember working with this woman and saying that I loved her hair styles; and how does she have time to have different hair styles etc. She told me that she wears a wig. Never guessed nor would I even say "is that your real hair / do you have extensions" or anything rude.
Everything about this video was the truth! I jumped up so many times on this video reacting in a way they couldn't! 😂I grew up in an all-white private school and the countless times I've gotten "you're pretty for a black girl" or how nobody would believe I was fully black because I have waist-length hair and hazel eyes. Black girls have hair! I was so thankful they explained the hair-washing thing too. And yes, I've had to deal with "being black but acting like white folks" so I'm counted as not really black...nonsense. Great video!
Oh do this with Indians too! I've heard very strong opinions/ stereotypes that Koreans have on Indians
Like what?
Love this video❤, and all three ladies are beautiful 👑 very insightful
Finally Lee JaeHwan is back, I miss him. My crush
One thing I hate is when I change up my hairstyle (for example, install braids extensions) and every nonblack person feels a need to have a conversation with me about my hair and ask 50 questions about it. If you like it, just tell me you like my hair and move along. If you don’t like it, keep your opinion to yourself. I don’t need to hear it.
This!!!!
Anyone who ask someone randomly if they can twerk is a Prevert lmao
Exactly
Fact.
Thank you so much for making this video!! I'm a black American and the one I hate the most is "You're pretty for a black girl" right along with the fact that you HAVE to stay calm or people will see you as 'that angry black person' even when you have every right to be angry with their indecency.
Those ladies are beautiful & they speak Korean, I've been watching K-pop for years & only know a couple phrases 😭🇯🇲
😂. I've never heard that Oreo comment before.. what kind of awful person has to be so crude in the mind that they would invent that, then spread it around for others to use it. I'm sorry, it's more funny than offensive that anyone can be so rude. My gosh, no. No, don't say that to someone. It's like accusing someone of being a phony based off of your stereotype.
I really do think that the anger comes from exhaustion. We hear stereotypes so often or rude comments so much that at some point we just go off without meaning to. 97% of the time, I'm that ask me anything no matter how rude you think it might be, I'll answer thoughtfully. I really won't get mad if it's genuine curiosity and not something like you're just riffing crude comments for a personal laugh or laugh with your buddies. Then, I'll give what I feel your rudeness deserves. Not physical harm, just verbal to the point where you'd of rather I hit you. And the kinder the tone, the more it stings.
I dance, but I've never tried twerking so I don't know 😁.
I’m a black american woman and was called that growing up quite a bit. It infuriates me to the fullest too. And the worst part is that other black people within the black community call black people like me that term too just because we don’t feed into all the negative stereotypes placed on us. They associate being quiet, nice, educated and speaking properly with being white. So if a black person is seen doing these things, they call us “oreo”. But when they do that, they are also saying they believe black people can’t be nice, educated, quiet and speak properly.
@@anonnnymousthegreat You are so right. Oreo was a VERY common term when I was younger, mid to late '90s. Its true it mostly occurred within the black community which made it all the more sad. It hurts much more when sayings like this come from people who looked just like you. Like they are pushing you out or not good enough to be around them. The only difference between me and them was speaking properly and having a much broader education from being a military kid. It really hurt back then.
@@nirillio334 I was a military kid too. And thinking about it, Oreo sounds like something my cousins would call me. They were forever insulting me and my sisters but mostly they called us stuck up or boogie and would laugh whenever we talked. Deciding we're not black enough. There's just no place to just be anymore. It sucks.
@@anonnnymousthegreatI get that a lot too since I'm Caribbean-American so Ebonics is not part of my culture. I won't say that standard English is a better dialect though: Ebonics has a lot of cross cultural and economic power too. I wish code-switching wasn't so necessary
Even as an overseas Indian I get called oreo or coconut a lot of the time, unfortunately I think all POC people have a word like that which is used against them
Thank you for this video, it was well done. After having been on this earth for a while and traveled quite a few places in and outside of the US, I’ve encountered these situations regularly. Most of the time it’s because people are curious not having been exposed to Black people in real life, they don’t realize that they are being rude/racist. Of course, sometimes it’s deliberately racist. I try to respond in the same way as I believe every opportunity is a chance to educate someone that Black people are the same as they are, we eat, love, live, sleep, etc. the same way. We can’t all dance, sing or play sports. We want the same things in life-money in the bank, a roof over our heads, food in the refrigerator, a decent job, and respect among other things. Instead of being angry (which honestly, is sometimes my first reaction) I try to initiate a conversation. You would be surprised at how far a simple conversation can go to clear up misconceptions.
I think it's disgusting when our own people call us oreo for speaking proper and having a good job. We're considered to be acting "white" or we think we're better than them. No, I just want to pay my rent on time and not be on the streets getting shot at for a bag of weed, or living with the guilt that the neighborhood kid overdosed on cocaine I sold him. Or me having to live my life knowing that a mother is crying because her child was killed in a drive-by because he was selling on someone's turf. Those scenarios of living in the hood aren't something I want for myself. I want a life where I can go home, in a safe neighborhood, no drugs being sold, no drive bys, none of that. And I like having conversations that include normal words without referring to someone as a b****, or the n word.
I went to school, found a job, and worked my butt off to be where I am. Sorry that you think I'm better than you. I'm not. I just made better choices, is all. You could have, too.
It's like if you're not ghetto and black, then you're black trying to act white. It's crazy
With the are blk girls agressive questions, I find it interesting. Because anybody can be agressive.but because of media ppl like to portray black women as aggressive simpley because we know how to speak foe ourselves and not take disrespect lightly. Even if u do it politely they still call u aggr4ssive but if your skin was a diffrent color they would use other words. Interesting.
I think the guy in black is a good man fit for a foreign relationship. You can tell he is respectful of women especially of their culture and would gladly respect them in his own culture. I strongly advise you to find a foreign love. The other guy was curious and you could tell that he got quiet when more questions were being seen as predgidous (don't know if I spelled that right) so observant more likely. I think he needed to be more active participant for this kind of video. Girls were amazing, and I liked personally how you got them with their different skin tones so that can be brought up with some questions. Also, I liked how respectful everyone was.
You were on it: prejudice
I want to see more content similar to this. 💖
The girl to the left is so adorable. Her style and hair really suits her
Even though the phone these men (ESPECIALLY the man in the black shirt) makes me feel so safe how he is calling everything out and not afraid to say he will stand up for these (and women in general that's treated like this). 💗💗💖
It’s crazy black women EVERYWHERE experience the same phrases. I would’ve never thought they would’ve heard the classic “pretty for a Black girl” or “I can tell your mixed with white”. All the way from Texas, thanks for the representation
The blonde haired one is stunning omg. And her voice 😍
Dude in the black shirt is always going to choose "violence" as his response!😅😆😆
I like the guy in the black shirt, he's very thoughtful and reflective his responses and answers.
This in fact is very educational and I hope a lot of people watch this bc still in year 2023 Black women get asked this rude shit😩 I need ALL folks to understand it's just rude, simply so don't approach and ask these things.
They all so beautiful but yeah is 2023 there’s no excuses for such stereotypes
Those girls are beautiful & I applaud their Korean. Wish I could speak Korean like them 😊
Keep doing these, they are very educative esp since Koreans don't know a lot about black people but are open to learn. Next time if you can bring others from Jamaica, Africa, Asia, Blasians... they might have different experiences. Otherwise, thanks all 5 of you for doing this and for being open to learn and teach.
With the are you African or Jamaican question confused me they could have said Caribbean because Jamaica isn’t the only place other than africa where black people come from 😭 as someone who is mainly Jamaican+st Lucian
Jasmin's statement" not everyone is like that" is correct. Xenophobia exist amongst all races. I'm American with blue eyes and I hear references such as blue eye soul as it relates to music, or called cracker because of my white skin. This stuff doesn't bother me but I can see how it may bother others. We have many Asian business owners in America and us white guys always say I bet they tell round eye jokes when we leave. lol. The three ladies on set look beautiful and more important, confident in how they responded to the questions.
Your experience a white person is incomparable. What was addressed was anti-blackness not simply xenophobia. These are questions that black only get in Korea. These stereotypes are universal. We are faced with ignorance everywhere because we are black. You as a white person can not experience racism or “anti-whiteness” so no you don’t understand. White people are the ones who perpetuated so many stereotypes about black ppl threw media and now that’s all many countries know of black ppl. And you must not know what xenophobia is it’s not amongst races it’s amongst nationalities. It’s discrimination and prejudice towards someone because they are from a different country not because of your race.
In Asia, despite being relatively friendly to white foreigners, there are still prejudices against White people. Asians can be subtly prejudiced too but since white tourists don't speak the language, whites end up being clueless that they're being discriminated against.
Common phrases you'll hear Asians say against whites are the following:
- "They're not good looking, they're just white." - This phrase refers to white people being fair skinned only and people say that if white people gets a tan skin and black hair like many Asians, those whites are actually ugly. That's why Asians find whites who gets a tan quite weird-looking.
- "Whites only go to Asia because they're too ugly in their country." - This phrase refers to those white men who visit Asia. Many Asians automatically assume that if you're white and single and you're travelling around Asia, you're only finding prostitutes, and not reliable whatsoever. This is most likely what people is on their mind when they stare at you if they see you alone with an Asian friend who is a girl. This prejudice is more prevalent in Southeast Asia where white men usually travel alone.
- "Your eyes are so big, it's gonna fall off" - This refers to big-eyed Whites and people say it as a joke that pokes fun of your face.
- "Your blue eyes are scary" - This is a less common phrase but some people actually find blue eyes scary.
- "You're so white, you look like a girl" - This is more towards boys especially those who have fair skin and can resort to bullying since Asian idea of being a real boy should be out in the sun and gets tanned.
I have dark skin but my parents come from a little island in the pacific. I have no blood in the history of discrimination but I still experience it and it is inconvenient, to say the least. Looking from the outside, it is obvious why you or anyone who shares the same ethnic attributes as you wouldn't feel offended by these rude comments or slurs. I can see why you wouldn't want to be called a slave foreman but if they did call you "round eye" it shouldn't bother you when people with round eyes are common in America; it's like someone with 3 arms saying "look at that two arms, stupid 2 arms, go back to your country 2 arms". If you were in a country where the majority has let's say Han Chinese features then yes, I would say it's rude to other you because you have rounder eyes. But like you I know people who get offended over things that I couldn't comprehend feeling anything about.
@@ZetteEdon I agree with your analogy. America has so many different races I don't even pay attention to the differences because not only do we experience it everyday these people are our friends.
@@matthewgraham2546 There are only two races, Black and White and everyone else is either biracial or mixed-race.
I like Hanseul he's very mature and considerate
This was so dope. Love it. More videos like this, for all sides.
People who ask these questions are not EDUCATED
These young ladies did a great job in responding to these questions thoughtfully. As a Black Caribbean woman living in UK/Europe I've heard a lot of those questions and they can be triggering along with being offensive. Just listening to the questions, I had flashbacks to being p*ssed off. As this was for educational purposes, I think they provided good answers and examples. Well done and shout out to the guy on the left who was annoyed with the ppl who asked such rude questions! Lol
Oh my goodness. My sisters in South Korea spoke about the stares and disrespect they've faced there. I knew it was Jealousy, because of how the comments were addressed to them. But, for us racism is like an annoying fly 🪰 you ignore until you have to address it. We're very educated women, so when we see the racism we already know where that person is coming from. Personally, I've only met one racist Korean woman before, I just kept being kind to her. Constantly. Why? Because love conquers hate. Then, one day when I was at work, working in the elementary classroom, look who walked in with her grandson who was afraid to come to his new class? The same woman. She was shocked, she was like, " What!? You work here?! I said yes, how are you? Then she told her grandson, stay with her, she will watch over you don't worry. I never showed an unkind gesture to this woman. Never, said an unkind word to her. Even now the thing that was done, to me when I first met her, I will not mention it. Because I have proven the Bible to be right. Love conquers all. Now, patience... is another thing entirely for me. The Lord is working on my heart in this area. Maybe one day I will grow to be like Him. But, until then. I'm just flawed. I LOVE YOU Jesus ❤️.
Beautiful story. Be encouraged in the Lord our savior.
This was a good video. The ladies did well and the guys understood that certain questions are just rude to ask. Good one y’all.
theyre all so prettyyyyy
Thank you for showing us not only beautiful women but, the cultural side, the throw back....the questions...there is a while universe of things to ask.....👏👏to the ladies ❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹
Anything you ask, please do it kindly. Start with is it ok if I ask.. don't point and go why is, why do you, etc. It makes people upset. But don't be afraid to approach black people. We're not inhuman nor scary. We're some of the nicest people on the planet, it's shocking to us that anyone thinks otherwise and it isn't just due to media. Look at how your own race is portrayed.. has that ever been 100% accurate? No. So don't think it of others, please. Really. Don't think, I'd like black friends. Go on over and make some.
We're loud because we enjoy with vigor not because we're scary or upset 😂. I promise. You'll love having black friends.
Legit like look at black TikTok have of the time we doing some dumb sh*t like getting on our parents nerves, eating cereal at night only to then get scared cause it’s dark and we heard an unknown sound, in a parking lot of a store doing dumb stuff like screaming for no reason or making edits with friends, trying to jump in the ball pit in the middle of walmart, we don’t turn our lights on in the car bc our parents lied and tricked us into thinking it was illegal, we scared of the paranormal and are always yelling at people in horror movies to not go there or to leave and run like legit we just weird and goofy when people get to really know us 😂❤
@@kywillis948 u just described my life LOLLLL we are so silly
Agreed with everything up until the "we are loud" part because it's kind of part of the issue of generalizing and stereotypes. You may be loud but theres a whole bunch of us who are not. Everyone is different regardless of race. 😅

i hate how they have to even explain these things but ig this is a different culture and i’m glad that others are learning.
Beautiful
I really appreciate this video. This was a very respectful conversation.
this video made me feel given me comfort zone . it made me smile . I am so glad I saw this video .😇
I love this we need more panels like this just discussing things from different races.
The lips question cracks me up because i think some Asians especially Koreans have some pretty full lips too.
Yeah, my thoughts exactly! And I love it when they have that trait...
My thoughts as well
The drama Rebel Princess there's a Kings mom she played the evil part. If you look at her she's got all African woman features. Her eyes, lips, jawline and then I realized that we have one Creator afterall
The oreo thing in France it's also "Bounty" a chocolate black in exterior and white in interior, but the "You're pretty for a black girl" is the most popular for me , it's hurt so bad like why ? Can't I just be pretty for a woman?!?! Just love the girls and the boys here❤ (especially the French one who talk a lot😊)
Nice video. And it's refreshing to have Black women representing other countries than the US. I like the variety. Because really, I'm a mixed dark-skinned French, and I relate more with some white French people or black Caribbean people... Or Brazilian or Dominican women... than Afro-Americans. They sound so aliens to me (not in a bad way, it's actually fascinating) so I'm always a bit puzzled by the representation sometimes.
We all have common "issues" but "Black" is not a culture or a mentality. It's just a physical trait and common issues relate to that (skin, hair...). I appreciate the voices they all rose here, and the different backgrounds!
Side note, I love the British girl poised and quiet voice! And the dress of the Swiss girl ❤
Edit : I'm grateful I've only been usually asked two of those questions : where are you really from (which I don't find offensive anymore) + is your hair real (that still makes my eyes roll especially if they touch it without asking). But I did hear some darker friends of mine been told : "you're pretty for a black girl" and that triggers me...
Also, I used to live in the Caribbeans even though I'm not a native and since then, I like twerking and I'm not ashamed. But I'm bad at it and it's really funny 😁.
Oh please stop that nonsense. Most European people are either African or Caribbean. You have to be mix for you not to understand black Americans.
Caribbean black are literally the same as black Americans just from North America while Caribbean are Central America. Same similar history.
Both Caribbean and black Americans have similar culture to African since they was African.
So what nonsense you talking about.
I been to fence and United Kingdom.
I know some African in Belgium \, Spain, etc
All understand black Americans.
@@dddd5989
In France, French Caribbeans distance themselves from African plus they are more mixed than African Americans on average. A lot look up to African Americans though. But Black is not a culture. Because of struggle and racism we would tend to feel a connection and to support each other but we don't have the same culture. As a west African, even other West Africans cultures don't represent me. Even people from my own country don't have the same culture as my people. There are things we have in common but every society has built their own culture. Hence two neighboring African ethnicities will be so different that their cultures can clash.
I'm happy when any group of black people shine positively and I'm sad when they appear negatively because I understand the impact it will have on all of us.
@@dddd5989 it's'ok to have different experiences. Mine is different from yours and when I tell you I relate less with Afro-Americans, I really do. I know because I was a whole summer in the US and even them couldn't understand my mentality. It's OK, we still had fun together. I know because every time I watch American shows, it seems very exotic to me. It's OK, I still have fun watching them.
But the way they choose to present themselves overall. The way race issues are addressed in the US. The way they relate to Africa and the rest of the world. I don't see myself in it at all. But it's OK. Not relating to something doesn't mean rejecting or denigrating. After all, they are Americans in addition to being black and I just don't relate at all with Americans in general.
I just know I'm glad to see a variety of black représentation.
And I stand by my point. : "Black" is not a culture.
@@malikasilla1475 the what’s your problem, say you, yourself don’t get along with this group, make a video of a video about a type of culture from a certain country in Africa Or about a certain tribe culture and most Africans tribe or country will have something similar or close to it.
From dance, food, clothing etc.
African didn’t or ever had a country. Those were created by white European. It was only tribe and ethnic groups.
Example Fulani people are in most west, central and other African region.
Black Americans are more mix just as Caribbean. They even be claiming modern mix people as black. You think those mix.biracial people once in segregation,Jim crow Time who was forced to identify as black with 50 black in them only. Are gone.
I done seen many black Americans with 10-40 white or native Americans in them.
Everyone is different. It’s stupid to say you get along with this culture.
Cause even siblings are different,
It’s common sense, nobody and nothing is ever exactly the same
@@malikasilla1475 any black Any continent are just African. Point blank period. You do braids/ wear waist beads/ twerk/ voodoo/ rap music/ but last time I check you said black people all different
I'm jealous of your Korean language skills. Wow your fluent and it's so awesome......😊
One more which you seem to have forgotten, understandably: "Oh, you speak so well for a black person! How come?" The problem with that question, regardless what language the black person is speaking, is that it comes from two assumptions (one of them very offensive): 1/You're necessarily a foreigner (not true in every case)
2/Black people aren't as intellectually capable as others or are not native speakers of whatever language they're speaking so aren't expected to speak well (again, completely wrong)...
It's offensive, even more so if the individual in question is not a foreigner in your country or was raised there. It happens to black people in many countries, including those with large black communities...
All three ladies here are beautiful by any standard. As a Korean American, I think these ladies are very beautiful and have great personalities. People do ask some really dumb questions that are offensive. I think this stems from ignorance more so than outward racism.
I love the fact that this conversation is happening. Everyo e is being respectful. I love this and am falling 8n love with South Korea.
I don’t know what it is but they sound so good speaking Korean, makes me want to learn.
I loved this segment 😊, it brought awareness to those who don't know or understand what is and is not okay. Very education and informative
Guy in the black shirt is ready to fight everybody 😂😂😂 I love it lol
These stereotypes come from the simple fact that people don't understand or refuse to accept that we are human
I love how you guys are always exploring sensitive subjects, but very important topics in today's society 👏 👌 The young ladies were straight- forward and honest. The guys reactions were also great and to the point. Especially, the one that stated to give it back to the offender as they try to be nasty to you. I have never been one easily offended and have always had my white friends or colleagues ask me questions about black hair, colorism, hair products, tanning, male endowment and rearing children, and just the different ways black folk do things. We laugh about it and just put it out in the open. I have always been the "coconut" on the jobs and in many events I attended. I am a professional person, and often it comes off to others as trying to act or be white when you speak a certainway, but really you're being professional and educated. It's a real thing! And often comes from other blacks. Keep having these kinds of truthful and enlightening conversations. It's the best direction to change ❤
Black is beautiful in many ways...I luv us♥️
thank you SO SO SO much for doing this
