"Heterosexual men have a fear that homosexual men will treat them how they treat women" 🤯 damn
I literally had to pause the video and take in that brilliant quote for a hot minute
Hit the nail right on the head
don't get it, can someone explain?
@@aceofhearts0 There are plenty of men out there who sexually harass women and think of it as normal or just "boys will be boys". So they think that homosexual men will catcall and harass them the same way and it makes them uncomfortable. Add in the extra layer of having to share male exclusive spaces with them and the fear is exacerbated.
@@byronstone386 isn't that a just a sexist thinking or stereotype over men.
i wish there was a bigger age gap between the black men so we could hear more perspectives on this questions
It's not the same, but there's an episode on black teens vs black grandparents.
Yeah, age gap was probably like 25-35
I agree. This is a huge problem with jubilee usually. They only pick young people and obviously their experience different from older generations who have experienced more under a certain circumstance so you don’t hear enough variety.
Agreed. This was a group of jaded men all definitely by the same cultural values
They need some men in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s!
I really love how open that guy was on the colorism subject because so many black men deny that they’re colorist and also deny their self hatred for dark skin
Thank you for the love! I had to be real and authentic. -Percy
Theres more colorist bw if anything
@@killakam725 from experience and this is coming from a black woman myself 💀
@@killakam725 i can't lie, my moms pretty colorist
But want white people to accept us
Percy has done a lot of inner work, and I hope to see other black men doing the same.
I appreciate you. Thank you for the love! -Percy
BM & BW
sis, go watch the video "the false promise of Black love" by Mahogany Pink. thank me later
Jubilee was like “Baby we addressing every stereotype”. From homophobia to colourism to mental health and absentee fathers. They covered quite a bit.
some of these stereotypes hold true...
That's what I'm uncomfortable with, the Stereotypes in generalizing the Black male American experience/existence.
I actually didn't think they would?
Yeah, these questions were on point. The only other topic they could have added was "being traffic stopped by the police". But other than that, they hit everything.
@@heathertea2704 I think that was the point. Videos like these are suppose to address long standing stereotypes and give a different perspective to how the actual affected Black men feel.
"Do all black women think the same" that would be an interesting discussion.
I think that's been done last year
I agree....
Yess!!!!
@@P03ticJustice no. I don't think it's been done yet. They did one with black people and one with black moms but not just black women. Hopefully it'll be next.
I WANT IT
Omg Percy has a beautiful complexion, it hurts me that he felt insecure about it!
I appreciate you Black Queen. I definitely grew to love who I am, it just took a minute. Thank you though 🙏 -Percy
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 you are absolutely beautiful
Agreed, I was really surprised by that. He has the best color of any of them in my opinion. He’s radiant
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 Yea bro your awesome and don't let anyone make you feel Different skin color or otherwise
right!
What Percy said about therapy as a black person, is so on point. Well said, my friend! As a future psychologist of colour, I applaud you.
I appreciate you. Thanks for the love! -Percy
Please do one with : do black Africans and black Americans think the same ?
Exactly
omg came here to say this
omg that’d be interesting
@Studio. Studio same
Black Africans HATE black Americans. It's obvious why.
So many dark skin black men feel the same way Percy does. They are so uncomfortable in their own skin that they project their insecurities onto dark skin black women, constantly tearing them down and placing light skin women on a pedestal. Colorism is such a huge problem in the black community and I’m glad Jubilee addressed it
So you probably Ignored his trauma right? Got it.
@@imanigordon6803 how did you come to that conclusion ? He was completely honest about his internalized hate and how that led to his preference. I’m simply stating that other men most likely feel the same way
I was just being honest. Many black men feel the same way but won't admit it. I'm glad you understood my perspective
@@imanigordon6803 That's understandable. Dark skin black women also face the same issue. The bashing though is honestly getting out of hand.
@@143sierranicole Yes his internalized hate didn’t start out of the blue it came from years of trauma just trying to flesh out that point so it doesn’t look like you’re intentionally skipping over that part
I'm glad Percy was honest about the colorism conversation. Alot of darkskin black men have this subconscious mindset but havent done the inner work or healing to acknowledge it or accept it.
I appreciate it. I definitely am comfortable with who I am now. Much love 🙏 -Percy
that conversation about becoming the people that bullied us really made me think. So I'm really glad that the conversation was handled respectfully, maturely and honestly
Bueno una gringa que no es racista xd
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 But you still prefer a lighter partner because of that trauma, so no... You're not.
@@BlameItOnMercury doesn't mean I still feel that way or haven't dated a dark skin woman.
“There’s no such thing as a positive or negative stereotype” well said, Jared. It is a huge issue that there is a common misconception that any stereotype can be “positive.” Stereotyping needs to end. Period.
Stereotypes are often true. But you should never judge a book by its cover. And it's interesting what kinds of stereotypes we don't mind so much. This whole episode was about stereotypes. But it's also about breaking them a bit. This is the interesting thing about humanity. We can boiled down to a set of circumstances like our culture and genes but there is remarkable diversity even in the most formal cultures and families.
Except for when making fun of British people for having bad teeth
No. There definitely are. Black women stereotypes are not the same as white women stereotypes.
As a dark skin black woman I appreciated Percy’s honest perspective. Growing up in self hate is real and causes a lot of damage that affect both men and women. Also nice to not have someone gaslight what black women experience everyday. We always knew.
I agree love your skin especially us dark skin we have a royal skin color 👑❤️🤎
I appreciate you for understanding me but most importantly I also agree with you. I had to shed a light on that because many black people feel the same way I feel but don't want to admit it
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 Appreciate your honesty.
Hope you'll understand that black is beautiful in all shades, as you are.
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 thank you for your honesty, I dont believe the other men were being honest though.
@@missyd1215 when you fear being judged, you stay silent
strongly admire Percy’s honesty when it came to the colorism question, at first I wasn’t so happy but realized it came from his childhood trauma and of course a persons own subconscious.
(pls be kind in the comments 😭)
Right! Like to be so upfront like I’m not all the way there yet, but I’m acknowledging it as I’m so much further and know where it came from.
Thank you for understanding. I knew I would get some backlash but honesty is the best policy
ThePrinceofFreshAir love you Percy!!! I always enjoy when you are put in videos. 💓💓💓
Why weren’t you happy? What does his preference (whatever the reason) have to do with you? Honestly asking n
@@workingonmyself I am a Black woman and have experienced colorism to an extent but have seen firsthand the detrimental factors of colorism to my peers and I definitely know that colorism is an issue. But in his case I can acknowledge that growing up as Black children we don’t get to pick and choose what society has ingrained into our subconscious. I am young and my outlooks will change but it definitely hits home!
Another huge issue with homophobia in the black community is that a lot of black women will use homophobic language against hetero black men when they either reject them or do not comply with what is being asked of them. It's one of the more under discussed issues imo because it's used to attempt to demasculate.
💯💯
Facts!!!
True. I grew up with a toxic mother and I can't even count how many slurs she would call him when they got into arguments.
I’m not sure if that’s only black woman. Some woman in general.
Then they'll say they're allies to the lgbt community. Nawl, you was just calling me a maggot loool
I feel like Percy was the only honest one on that light skin/dark skin topic
I definitely had to be honest and real. Its a unspoken thing that many others have or are currently going through -Percy
Yep. Especially with Mike lol
It was so nice seeing Black men speak so highly of therapy. I've been seeing a therapist for the past year and I agree that it's one of the best things you can do for yourself and Black people especially could benefit

All these men were VERY well spoken at expressing themselves. Normally you get 3-4 that do all the talking and you barely hear from some, but this group everyone got to talk. Lawrence spoke his mind and that's awesome!! This is why we need 30-minute episodes!!
Percy has my respect for continuing to be honest despite the backlash, I’m surprised he never wavered, since everyone else was disagreeing.
I appreciate you for understanding my point of you. Its a hard thing to admit but I'm sure others feel the same way
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 Your hair is awesome BTW too ☺️
Mike is mine. Like he's not stereotyping or prejudice to any race unlike most of the other guys on white people.
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 wassup Percy
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 my boa 14:49 who tf said u wasn't Black enough
A lot of Black men do feel the way Percy does, but simply won’t admit it. I’m glad he did and explained that it doesn’t mean light skin or dark skin is superior instead of the usual lighter is better. When I was younger a lot of my dark skin friends would talk about getting with lighter partners or a different race so their kids will be lighter or have looser hair. It’s all our own insecurity and trauma.
Absolutely! But I am confident and comfortable with myself, it just took a long time to accept. And ehat you said is facts 👊 -Percy
It happens in the Asian community too. In fact parents straight up say that “my son is beautiful but I wish he’s a bit lighter” blatantly. It hapens to most races or so I heard, even with white people wanting their kids to be not too pale. I think you’re 100% right and it’s just insecurities from our culture that escalates this
@@dhisonpadma 🥺..This reminded me of Meghan markle's situation

@@theprinceoffreshair1164 where did you grow up? And do you still feel like lightskin women are better? That’s sad
Percy’s comments on colorism definitely stood out. No one else there had his skin color so I think it’s harder to imagine that experience. Even if someone is lighter they might idealize looser hair or light eyes/hair. His feelings are totally understandable and I feel like it is better to be honest about it than to pretend you don’t feel it. Much respect to him!
I appreciate you for understanding!
He admitted to becoming one of his bullies, 0 respect to him
@@toduno927 He meant he internalised what his bullies said to the point that he believed them. Not that he actually went out to bully others.
@@toduno927 my dude please stop it
@@toduno927 Which makes sense, because it's actually a defense mechanism to the trauma he experienced. To turn into the same "oppressor" you experienced, in order to feel accepted or liked. Kudos on his honesty about it, because it's def real.
I love that Percy is so self aware and did some digging to realize the subconscious bias. There are a lot of black men with a very similar experience but they either refuse to admit or recognize the bias and why it's there. We really need more men who are willing to do some self reflection like that. Love it
I had to be real for the viewers. I appreciate the love. -Percy
A lot of Black women too lol.
This video is as very refreshing to watch. I loved seeing these educated Kings communicate their emotions & thoughts in such a beautiful manner. They all were so open and understanding to each other . Wow
I agree with you! Great episode.
@Solaris seriously

@@MostOutrageous what did solaris say breh
Do African and or Caribbean men vs African American men on social issues. The differences will be striking
YES. This would be so great.
OMG. This!
We've been asking for this for too long🥺
Africans and caribbeans have very little in common
it would be better if it was African vs Caribbean vs African American men
@SP4MAA ok but no one said all black people are african or caribbean
Absolutely. Need more black voices from different parts of the world.
Percy's realness got me high key emotional. His transparency was refreshing and absolutely needed because he's right -- a LOT of men (not just Black) have these eurocentric preferences created and proliferated by the media and general culture. The only way to change the course is by engaging in honest discourse.
Thank you for understanding my perspective. I had to be honest with myself and the viewers. Hopefully what I said helped others in their journey in discovering their truth. I appreciate the love! -Percy
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 thought you were the only spontaneous and honest one. The others were too afraid to speak their mind. Always speak your mind! Love from italy
High key. This is the case for alot of African Americans. It's like Pavlov's dog. Conditioning. As a black person you can't fault someone to how they adapt(non violent) to their trauma of being black in America. At least he's honest instead of projecting onto black women. And he deserves someone who can love him💞 for him regardless of being black if that person isn't black so be it. I'm just glad he finally started loving himself. 👏🐥🖤
haha i love it
when it comes to positive serotype well you know it comes from somewhere wouldn't be a stereotype if it wasn't based on truth
when its the negative stereotype its like i don't know where that comes from no truth to that
indeed... that part about show casting was so damn true as well
I'm glad Percy was honest about how colorism has subconsciously affected him. A lot of people wouldn't be willing to admit that.
I appreciate you! I definitely had to be real and honest because I know I'm not the only one who's felt that way -Percy
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 Hey Percy, you got an Instagram?
being adopted myself, and going through foster care like percy, i would be interested in a video about adopted people of different backgrounds and ages. i’d like to see how others were effected differently due to certain circumstances uncontrolled by the adoptees.
Same, I’ve been In foster care for the last 8 years and I feel like my experience compared to all my friends is so alien I just can’t ever talk about it openly and it’s even harder to find other people in foster care to talk to about their experiences and relate to
So sorry to hear this.
This episode definitely made me feel like I’m being heard. All black men are not the same and that was displayed in this episode. This was great!
Im deaf i cant hear sorry.
It is a GREAT episode!
Yep Exactly
I think they could have done better at the beginning. The first 5:20 were fluff and the men did their best to create a dialogue from it but there is soo much more that I want to hear about from black men (as a black woman) then whether they like big butts.
@@cashjones6997 they were hot takes that people on Instagram suggested. While I agree that there could have been deeper topics discussed, they probably chose ones that were common suggestions. And I mean they’re a UA-cam channel so they’re going to do what a lot of their audience wants so they get more views and stuff
I'd love it if Jubilee would release extended or uncut versions of old middle grounds and spectrums that were only about 10 mins. They feel unfinished.
They do. I wish they would put the uncut footage on patreon. I would pay personally.
Mike was so educated like the points he came out with were so thought out, i’d love to see more of him on the channel
This was one of my favourite to watch! Real chat, respectful and great people.
“Respectfully I ain’t tryna hear that” I’m stealing that line haha
re: Jubilee Team - ONE suggestion: Make the center/standing line yellow, red or blue so that we can get a better visual of the polarity from the neutral point! 😁
Yessssss
Agreed
This is probably the only channel where i see no bots at all
This is awesome, really refreshing.
Thank you. 🙏🏾❤☀️🥰
I agree with that suggestion cause while watching every Spectrum vids all I see is people getting hecka confused asf on what line they should stand
14:21: It was painful at first, of course, as a black woman, to see Percy walk over to "agree," but ultimately, it was that much more refreshing and gratifying to hear his honesty and willingness to engage with the other men's questions. Because that kind of honesty and active back-and-forth dialogue is what it really takes to begin unpacking internalized anti-blackness.
I appreciate that. We have to be real and honest and I wanted to give people authenticity! -Percy

I don't get it 😅
@@pedroloto women and gay men are the only ones that believe this
@@pedroloto Think about heterosexual men sexually harassing women par example. Straight men are afraid that gay men will do that to them.
@@thisname2320 honestly I've never thought about it and I didnt know it was a thing
@@Peprahism Women, gay women, gay men,tans people, non binary people,etc.Literally only men do not think this because they dont want to evaluate their own behavior
To the point of the red-shirt guy drawing a parallel to women reclaiming the B-word. Most women don't like hearing men use the B-word. So you can also see why black people reclaim the N-word but get uncomfortable when other races use it. The negative history is still attached and always will be, so these words have to be used lightly and situationally.
i just don’t understand why he literally said the b word while trying to make a point that non black people shouldn’t use the n word but he said the b word
I’m not down to hear the b word at all. Also I feel like most people are only fine with it if it’s their friend saying it in a joking manner
Same goes for the f word, Jew slurs, Asian slurs. Everyone knows them but nobody is bold enough or disrespectful enough to say it. So why the demand to say the n word ??
Well thats how it goes anyways since the n word probably been used by others races by then
Jews, Asians, Mexicans are not around here calling each other slurs.
I have been waiting for this one, and I THOROUGHLY enjoyed it. A part 2/follow up with the same guys would be pretty cool. Great job guys and thanks for sharing your experiences.
This is one of the best discussions that jubilee has done. Great video.
I 100% understand where Percy is coming from, growing up dark skin kids were bullied so I can understand how that leads to self-hate and perpetuates colorism. If you don’t like the way you look you’re not going to see the beauty in women with similar features. I
I get that argument to a certain point but at some stage you have to self-reflect and grow. I'm sure dark black girls got bullied too, yet they don't (all/seemingly collectively) look down on dark black men. We know the media has a huge role to play in this, but ijs. No more excuses... self-reflect and grow. You can like who you like, but try not to denigrate while you're at it.
Thank you for understanding. I have grown and I don't view black women the same anymore
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 Stories like yours ('I had a bias, realised it and worked to improve myself') are so important. Imo it makes a bigger impact than people just saying don't have a preference. Thanks for being honest!
@@Pee5Ma that's what I'm here for. Entertainment and Honest!
Right. But it's also true that black people masculinize dark skin, which can positively benefit the men and negatively impacts the women. The reverse is true with the emasculation of light skinned men.
And we should address the fact that we don't really see dark skinned women who were bullied exhibiting this behavior towards dark skinned men.
My mother is really dark and was teased so much and hurt so badly that she only dated light skinned men. She was afraid her kids would come out dark like her.
I hate people.
Teased by other black people or who? I feel like white people don’t tease about that.
At least u ain’t dark🤷🏾♂️
@@ASMRblack I am though and the way you phrased that is the reason she dated the way she did.
@@christinajones6500 white people totally do, just not to our faces. But it was by other black people and that's because dark black skin is furthest from white skin and we live in a country of white beauty standards.
She must've stood up for herself and never let anyone down her.
Bur sadly she wasn't strong AKA she was weak.
This was one of my favorite episodes! This was refreshing and eye opening to a very overlooked group when it comes to emotions! I love the channel!!
Sending 💛💛💛 to Percy who struggled with his complexion. Appreciate your honesty and ability to talk through your story.
When he said that parents can break your heart more than anyone else can i really felt that. Loved seeing all the support they gave each other in this video tho !!
That hit home with me as well.
Exactly so please treat you child fairly not based on gender okay.
Wow I feels that
As a black woman who happened to study behaviors based on races and cultures, I can say that statistics show black men are more different than you think. It’s a combination of stereotypes and uneducated people that always makes you think otherwise.
Just like any other race. Any person. People are different, wow what a surprise.
@@MuMasoo It's almost as if people think differently
There are no races. We all are humans
@@melvingameryt9386 Too bad not all races are treated the same in society 🤷♀️

Jubilee, thank you! Conversations where people are speaking openly, freely, without fear of being condemned is literally the most beautiful thing I have ever seen on the internet in...forever!!!!!!!!! Yay!
If you can't teach YOURSELF something new using shame, why use shame to teach another person? If you are using shame to teach, than your motive is to belittle that individual. It's a hurtful and misguided approach. I am so happy to see this approach to conversation being embraced. They were all so open and vulnerable and respectful towards each other
This was a great conversation and I’m sure healing for many of them. I wish them all the best ❤️
Percy seemed the most honest out of everyone to me
How?
cap
Facts! They were badgering the guy with questions on the pro-black & dating outside of your race, yet all seemed confused with Percy’s honesty. Make it make sense.
I like how Percy talked about colourism in the black community. This made me think about the colourism in Asian countries especially South Asian, let me tell India is one the country where fairness/whitening products sell for billions and the discrimination done by the film industry and the media is so disgusting. I want jublee to talk about this problem. There where even whitening products for babies and kids, I can't believe how this products are sold and the ads for these are straight up showcasing racism for dark skin tone. I hope people change thier ideologies soon.
I appreciate you for understanding my perspective. I definitely had to be real with myself and be honest with the viewers. Hopefully others learned something about themselves
This south Asian issue dates back to British rule the British rule y’all for over 100 years. They really white washed your history and I’ve been to India in the museums all your ancestors have white skin that is very sad. South Asian can get just as dark as Africans but y’all are racist at times that’s the issue that you need to addressed because a lot of times y’all want to be white and that’s what makes you dislike your old skin color as well as black people that’s the issue that needs to be addressed in your community.
Mz Nurú it's both that and how colourism is so tied to classism there
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 Really appreciated the honestly, it's something that can be subconscious in our community and its cool your aware of it to the point you can articulate it so well!
It's interesting how they are against negative generalisations, like black people cheat more.. but they support positive generalisations, like black people are funnier
This was truly was a truly high-quality session. I tend to stop halfway in many of these. But this showcased a very classy discussion between well-spoken and intelligent men on very difficult matters. They also listened carefully to one another and were not combative or condemning. Amazing watch.
This was a really cool one, loved hearing from these men, they were respectful and honest and quite vulnerable, well spoken, funny and remained positive
10:14 “Heterosexual men have a fear that homosexual men will treat them the same way they treat women, so they are afraid of that treatment.” This is the most powerful statement I have heard all month.

You obviously haven't really grown that much. You just referred to Canadian black people as African-Americans.
Faux-virtuosity. Black folks, and all other folks for that matter, don't care to be as open minded about you as you try to be for them.

One thing certain black men will go extremely hard for is dating non black women and being able to use the n word

Percy’s a real one! 💯 So many people love to act like unconscious bias has no effect on dating/romantic preferences, but it absolutely does!
I appreciate the love. Thank you for understanding my perspective. -Percy

@@raven-kn6lv I def appreciate that. I didn't expect this much love. I thought most ppl would hate my ass
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 I do have a question, when talking about penis size everyone of you goes to "agree" without any mention of statistics or anything. Next question where its about cheating suddenly you need statistics and proof and blablabla. That is bias too.
Wow. I seriously wish I could have been part of this. I want to see another one of these! Rarely do diverse Black men ever get together to discuss these things. We are so bound to societal stereotypes that it adversely affects our emotional well-being.
This was a dope ass Convo, real questions & interesting perspectives. Loved it 💜
“I prefer a light skin partner to a dark skin partner” thank you for bringing colorism into this Jubillee, though I wonder how much one would be willing to be honest 👀
Ooop-
🌚😏
Facts
I prefer white people it's not rqcist their just preferences
At least he's honest ig
Props on them for choosing disagree then. Bro said he wasn't playing colorism games lmao
This felt like homies hanging out together
I have fewer than 1 friend in the World. That's right. Everybody disses me for making bad videos. I think they are perfect though. Who is right? My dissers or me? Which side are you on, dear gid
@@AxxLAfriku bro what
It was
@@AxxLAfriku tf
Exactly that's why I feel this wasn't very engaging. Only 1 person I could say had a different upbringing while the rest seem like friends or go to the same school. To say do "all" black men think the same and only have one age group is misleading.
Jeezz I couldn't be on videos like this. I'd be too scared to be honest. Bravo to all these guys for their truthful answers while being respectful.
I appreciate Percy’s honesty. That’s exactly what I’m looking for when I watch these videos. He is right, societal beauty standards, which influences our self-confidence, plays a significant role in our dating preferences. Even as a young child, I was well aware that my skin tone was not preferred. I only ever wanted white baby dolls, rejecting the black ones my aunt always used to bring me as “ugly”. This was my mentality at age 5; already cognizant of the privileges associated with having Eurocentric features. My journey to self-love, like Percy’s, has been hard fought.
Colourism is an unfortunate reality in the black community, and negatively impacts the mental health of our youth, creating unrealistic beauty standards. I’m glad it was addressed.
Absolutely! There shouldn't be any hate towards percy on his explanation. Its valid because its the truth! Its not an excuse to bash darker women and i dont believe he was saying it was, but he made it clear that his environment didnt help him see the beauty of skin like his and it developed an insecurity.
In my opinion, i believe the other men in the video were not totally honest on this topic. Its an overwhelming scene that black men prefer lighter skinned women or at least women with less black features especially the hair. They may be open to darker skinned women but the question was do they prefer lighter partners. The answers would be so different among an anonymous survey.
I really love Percy's honesty and being so open about he's trauma. I can really understand where he's coming from and I can actually kind of see myself. I'm a birracial person (mulata more exactly) and I've never feel enough "black" because I'm lightskin causing me to internalized a lot of racism so I would actually prefer to date a dark skinned person so if I have children (not that I want them lol) they would feel more connected to their culture without worrying about being black enough (just trauma things lmaooo)
I appreciate you for understanding my points. I knew I would get some backlash but I also know many people could relate 🙏
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 nah bro you are right, and there are SO MANY black people who go through the same thing, but don't talk about it.
@@peace6566 thats exactly why I decided to talk about it
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 I am SO happy you spoke out your mind and stood your ground, what you said is what many are thinking but it's uncool to say it out. I've always felt for my darker brothers. I saw it first hand the abuse and bullying on a friend/brother and it left in me a strong impression even though I always stood up for him which I think saved him from suicide. I never got beat down over my skin tone but I've seen it happen to others. Featurism is also another factor in choices of partners and how we and other people perceive us and how we ourselves see others and combine it with colorism and it creates a toxic concoction. So again, thanks brother.
@@wilmak11 no Thank You 👊 I appreciate you
This is one of my favorite Jubilee editions in a long time!
Im korean but i truely appreciate their honesty and their transparency. I have learnt so much from this.
I'm so glad they had a homophobia prompt. Homophobia is such a HUGE problem in the black community and it's something we should address.
@UCqBFfdV8s7StosbctLvz6OA I didn't know that that was something people did. Wow, that's disgusting. Religion obviously does play a huge role in it as well.
Homophobia is a big problem in all communities but they like to just say black or Latino because they want to give white people a pass
@@jaycam6823 Homophobia is present in all communities, it simply seems more prominent in minority communities. It's something brought up on a black oriented video because it's very present in the black community.
It’s a huge problem I’m many minority communities not just blacks

Yeah. We don't do that consistency nonsense over here. Rules for thee, but not for me.
It’s interesting to see how people view themselves vs how other people see them. Percy was the first one who stood out to me for his attractiveness because of his skin and hair. Being tall just iced the cake! Meanwhile that’s the same stuff he got bullied for as a child. This world is disgusting, making perfect black features out to be ugly.
Thank you for the love and the compliment. It took me a long time to be confident in myself but now I have Confidence and Charisma. I appreciate you -Percy

Real talk; This needs to be a show. These guys are great together.
This was such a great and fascinating conversation. 👏
As a Jamaican. The Belizean guy PERFECTLY described my relationship with my father. Financial based. Throughout my life my dad has always been financially supportive, but we have no connection. There is a lot about my father that I wouldn’t be able to tell my wife or my kids because I just don’t know. We don’t have deep talks or any memorable experiences together.
As I got older we talked more and have gotten to know each other more. I think he’ll be an awesome Grandfather, I just wish I got to know him more as my dad growing up.
This is EXACTLY THE RELATIONSHIP I HAVE WITH MY FATHER
it’s never too late my friend.
I think it's kind of the same for many Africans. Dad's are present for financial support but mothers mostly have that emotional connection. Though I'm sure it'd not be in some households. They make amazing grandparents though.
A father seems to be very necessary in a kids life but the amount of presence doesn't seem to matter so much. Men are often stoic providers who aren't big on words and big shows of affection. My dad wasn't. But his contribution to me was priceless. But affection and attention matter.
Same. He's been dead over a year now. I don't fault him; he provided for me until I could do it myself and that's all you can ask for. Though I'll admit it sucks he didn't put in a little extra effort to have some small relationship with me or teach me anything.
Percy s story about his family is so sad.
I don't usually open up but I'm glad I did. It makes my perspective easier to understand. I appreciate you!

This was a great video and touched me on many levels as a black woman. 💗
This was also the first video I've seen that has been switched up from the A vs B discussions. I love it. Welp! On to the next discussion! 🏃🏾♀️
Please do “do all black women think the same” and make sure it’s mono racial black women.
Yes include black ppl from Africa, that will be interesting
this!!! because if they go and include biracials i will be mad
I would be shocked if they cast only mono racial black women in a video like that. It seems like when they cast black men it’s almost always mono racial black men, but when they want to cast black women there are always biracial women included.
Yes and include different types of black women, not just African Americans.
I agreed with this video idea untill you wanted to purposely exclude half black women. I can understand the mindset and see that this video is all dark skin black men and recognize that we don't have COMPLETELY identical experiences, but maybe having a little different experience then full blacks, could add an interesting perspective to the conversation
you should have these dating questions about race on a middle ground with black men and women. I think it would provoke way more interesting conversations
Agreed
Great suggestion- I’d love to see that one
Nah, I disagree this one is just for black men. Need to hear the raw opinions expressed in a comfortable space.
Hard agree!!
@@DistortedV12 what are you even saying 💀
This was DEEP😭
I love how open and honest everyone was❤️
Hearing what Percy has gone through is heartbreaking. He’s a gorgeous guy and I am glad he’s feeling himself now. His realness is refreshing. It is hard to hear as a dark skinned black woman but grateful he is real.
I don't know what questions would be asked, but I would love an episode on people in their Early 20's who grew up in the suburbs vs. people who grew up in the inner-city and talking about their different experiences growing up.
Yes
Why early 20s?
I just broke things off with a guy who grew up in the hood, while I was raised in the suburbs. And at first everything was fine, but the differences between our upbringings really molded who we were and the differences were just too much. I didn’t think it would be such a big deal, but it is
@@Feliciatanktop Would you mind expounding on the differences that were overwhelming? I've never heard or thought of the topic you brought up, so I'm interested.
@@Feliciatanktop are the differences Only because of city vs suburbs/subdivision regions, & or because of

Proud of the guy who spoke about his internal struggle with Colorism. We need to talk about it.
I appreciate it. I had to be true and honest. Thank you -Percy
ngl the guy who said "zendaya"; read my mind. like i love her soo muchh but i feel like when casting black actresses, it really shouldn't be as hard as they make it seem to get other "pretty and dark-skinned black" women...
Its the unspoken truth about the business. I know all too well. -Percy
Lets be clear, zendaya is biracial, not black. Biracial women are cast in replacement of black women to the point of seeing the erasure of black women in media and seeing biracial women instead. And if they do have a black woman, she is playing the role of a negative stereotype. While there are black women in some positive lead roles they, are the same 5 black women. White women have endless opportunities. And biracial women have more than black women.
@@ifyouwantoreplyjustclickth5063 let's get one thing clear, i get what you're saying in terms of the erasure of black women in the media but zendaya is still partially black. biracial; sure but you cannot say she's not black. yes, she's mixed but who are you to erase part of her race??
@@ashschilly by calling her black, you are erasing her white side. Im against erasing her racial identity. Im for identitifying and acknowledg both equally. The only reason society calls biracial people black is because of the one drop rule which stemmed from the idea that racistbslave owners created. They literally believes biracial people arenrgood enough to be called white so they lumped anyone who has black genetics in together. Zendaya may identity with black culture but she is biracial not black. Unless you want to play the game, then i can say is white
@@ifyouwantoreplyjustclickth5063 you can't say you're for acknowledging both equally, if you're quick to say she's not black. being biracial doesn't mean you aren't any of the races you're mixed with, it simply means you're mixed. acknowledging the fact that you are mixed with one of the races you're mixed with, doesn't mean you're not the other/ that the other is less important.
this topic refered to zendaya's black side of her race, so that's what i'll refer to. she is black, don't say she's not. and saying she is doesn't mean i'm saying she's not also white.
Loved this video and the vulnerability and honesty they showed 🥺❤️
OMG, I loved this. This is one of the best spectrum videos.
Thank'you for this jubilee
Can we do a video of black teenagers teenager answering questions about how they were raised and how they grew up. Like you could do things like:
“I’m often told I act white” and see the results.
“I sometimes feel like I’m not black enough.” Or “I feel like I don’t “act black” enough.”
I can’t think of too many questions on my own, but that’s what I got so far.
ikr, people in school used to call me an oreo. it was soo annoying. just because i like kpop & watch anime or go to starbucks here and there. i’m trying to act white…?
Im sure many of us have experienced this. Great idea 👍

Thank you for understanding my perspective. I appreciate you -Percy
@@theprinceoffreshair1164 after a certain age it's difficult to change the beliefs that have formed in our subconscious, so don't feel guilty if you feel like the bias isn't going away. Just learn to deal with it so that you minimise the chances of being colourist to people and so that you don't pass it on.
Best of luck
@@naomiwilliams8850 I realized the error of thinking that way and I'm not like that anymore. But I appreciate you.
he’s the only one with that response on the panel, it is in your head sometimes and you cope by saying it’s that way because black men hate themselves, it’s cathartic for you to believe that the only way a black men could prefer another skin tone is self hate. Some are colorist, some aren’t.
@@fatherfather2357 We know our history and we also know that preferences for the most part, like most other things, are formed by social conditioning. Not randomly out of thin air as some would like to believe. So to pretend it isn't self hate most of the time screams ignorance.
Also I don't believe the original commenter nor I mentioned anything about Black men being colourist let alone all of them, so I'm not sure what the point of saying "some are colourist, some aren't" was. Isn't this obvious and the case with most things
Awesome, educated, & professional discussion
Great work
Hi Mexican-American here, this is really interesting to learn about and understand. Thank you Jubilee, and to these wonderful men for their perspectives ❤️
I know that there are a lot of negative stereotypes about Black men in the Latino community, and some of those notions are worse than with what many Whites believe.
@Michelle Not out where I live!
@Michelle That's my experience. I was born and raised in San Antonio and the Latinos just couldn't care less about race.
“Do all Mexican-Americans think the same” there’s a lot to cover there
“Are all Mexican Americans hypebeasts “
Or Mexicans and Mexican- Americans think the same.
Because over here (MX) many people don’t like the paisas
