The authenticity of this show is what is missing from television today
Yes. Exactly
Exactly
Classic 90s
That’s because the general public wasn’t aware of the producers manipulating their own narrative. Reality TV wasn’t really a thing. There wasn’t nearly as much fabricated sensationalism.
@@LaJuera25 yeh old is gold
THE 90S WAS WILD AF BUT ALSO AUTHENTIC AT THE SAME TIME 😂

True. It was definitely wild l

Right? And then she adds "and do I cheat on him?" People are crazy 😂

The most shocking part of this show was those 2 grannies who said they were 35.😱
Oh wow I'm 36 and both of them look like my grandmother, wow! 😮
40 odd years ago this is how we expected to look when we got older 😂👀 thank goodness the world has changed
Thank goodness my generation is stuck in nostalgia… and we aren’t looking how these women were.
I still think it’s crazy that it was commonplace for 50 year olds to be great grandparents in the olden days
The other lady being 27 is a shocker too !
"you raised her well" she ate that upppp lmaooo
Facts 💯💯💯
the ricki lake show is genius, thank God i grew up with it. still so relevant in 2023
Are you for real the woman is a NOBODY the show is a pile of garbage you need to get a life
No it's not 🤣🤣
@@Tmac_305without Ricki and others these basic ass celebs being handed talk shows wouldnt exist. Notice how none of the talk shows today are like this? You must be young.
@@60wwediva you literally just said "and others", but you were originally speaking about only Ricki Lake. You literally just switch the narrative, and then made a false assumption about me just to fit it!... You remind me of Ricki Lake, I see why you admire her so much, js. And Ricki was no more than a basic ass celebrity when she got gifted with a talkshow...
And if I remember correctly, didn't her show get canceled and she had to make a comeback or something? (🙄Oh I forgot I must be young, nevermind)
Most of these shows were about race. But they never come up with a solution for the problems. They give those who have a certain view that's usually negative a platform. I glad these type of shows were canceled.

That's a fact.
It's wrong to hate a human being because of the color of their skin in the first place.
Oh I felt this. My father once said, if you really love your kids like you say you do, you wouldn't given them the father you gave them

❤❤❤
@@mikejones-wn1sw I can see how it may seem that way. Both of my parents, great grandparents, etc. are black. It just so happens that my father’s siblings married outside of their race making my cousins biracial.

😂😂😂💀
I’m from Georgia and graduated HS in the late 90s. The fall after I graduated and started college, I got a part time job at a call center for credit cards. I sat next to a very pretty white lady, late 20s who was married to a black soldier and they had 2 kids. She told me how her entire family disowned her for marrying her husband. They had not seen her children, their grandchildren at all. I could tell she was hurt. I’ll just never forget that, but wasn’t surprised. Even in the 90s I remember white girls liking us black boys but it was always a secret. We could never tell anyone that we were messing around.
We are friends on Facebook and she and her husband are still married and had 2 more kids. She posts a ton of pictures of her grandkids. You can tell she dotes on them, perhaps because of how she was treated. I don’t know if she patched things up with her side of the family though. I hope she did.
I'm not trying to be mean but does anybody remember in the 90s Ricki Lake was considered fat? It's weird now she just looks normal and super cute ❤
Yes, I remember that and it's a shame she was put down for her weight.
I always thought she was really, really pretty.
No, Ricky was a fat teen actress. She had lost weight before the talk show.
This was after Ricki got down to a healthier weight; she was much heavier when she was in her early 20's
Yes, I remember!
We have really been bamboozled about what racism really is. It’s more than just who likes who. A racist person can laugh and talk to people. I’ve seen them even have kids with the opposite race still practice racism. Happens every day. I have been called the N-word by white woman with a black stepdad and black children. Interracial sexual access does not mean you cannot be racist.. It’s all about the power to do what you want to group of people who you don’t like. These white women just happen to fall for Black men but honey they are many of the Karens today
Absolutely.

We were all thinking it😂
She looks 55!
YOU DON'T LOOK 35!😂😂
And there lies one of the biggest problems blacks and whites face. The black woman expects to be treated equally and with kindness, yet the first chance she gets, she insults the white woman. Her comment was uncalled for and made with hatred in her voice. She treats people like crap and then wonders why they dislike her race. It's people like her, black and white, who keep the hatred going.
And she told not one lie.
That black woman don't look 36. Lmao I'm 40 and I could pass for her daughter LmAO.
My husband is black and I have Hispanic kids people have look at us funny but don't bother me we all gods children my kids r Hispanic n white and r beautiful to me

I loved that these topics were just as relevant then as they are now.....
Guest on Ricki Lake show they probably doing better today
There needs to be a “Where Are They Now” version of this episode of “The Ricki Lake Show.” I’d like to know how these couples turned out. I don’t get the feeling these relationship were ultimately successful.
Not because they were interracial, but because there are other issues going on (like the young lady who was impregnated by her boyfriend who was in jail for a “violation.”)
I like how this was so much calmer than nowadays. We have lost the ability to calmly debate in today's time. There's nothing wrong with interracial relationships. Free your mind and the rest will follow. Be color blind. Don't be so shallow.
That was because politics and legislation were not so much of an issue.
Because people are in each other's faces 😂😂😂 it's easy to talk in a bad way when the majority of the debates happen online. You get real slick online.
However... colour blindness is bad. That's delusional. Let's not pull that bs. We all see each other's skin tones and features. And if you are intelligent, they way different races are treated so... stop promoting delusion. And I would say that to anyone's face. Because that is what that is. That's fake.

Can we talk about how ABSOLUTELY Gorgeous the “friends “ are at the end of this episode??
Bc they’re actors lol. Think about it…the show said that 3% of marriages at that time were interracial. Does it make sense that a randomly selected audience was 40% interracial daters?
Most likely they scouted for the audience to fit the shows topic. Ehich is normal for these types of show. For example some shows will have members in the audience that oppose esch others views, leading to a debate.@@KristinA-xv4yk

I feel these women's pain. I grew up in the 1990s in suburban Atlanta and everyone told me as black man I should not date or marry outside the black race. Even in college my black parents and my little brother told me not to date or marry outside the black race. Bottom line it is not just white people who forbids family to marry outside their race.
💯👌🏾 I'm East Africa I can't date or marry West Africa my family would be mad
I am married to a white man. However, avoiding your own race like this lady is doing is a sign of self hate or just trying to piss off your parents. She fetishes black men that's why she will not date white men. There's a big difference between not discriminating and dating interracial only because you hate members of your race
For real, my dad is black and his family told him not to bring white girls around, also in Atlanta in the very early 90s. He still made a family with my mom, but white and black people didn't like seeing them together
Poor franklyn
SPEAK!!!!
As a teenager watching this back in the 90’s I remember being genuinely open mouthed watching this. The UK was totally not bothered about mixed marriages back then and we still aren’t. It’s heartbreaking to still read that there is such deep racial segregation in the USA. That’s one huge reason why Prince Harry’s marriage no one batted an eyelid. In fact not one person I know thought MM was mixed race. To call our nation and commonwealth racist is just mind blowing. It was the UK who actively called for the end of slavery and supported the civil rights movement.
I just hope all of these families are now happy.

@@vivalaevaaa that’s awful. I guess I’m lucky living where I do. None of my friends or family have never experienced it but they have in other areas of the UK.
Think you would need to speak to the people of color. In reference to racism in UK. It can be complicated and often missed by those not of color. Simply because ppl of color are the intended target for racism and other racial microaggressions

Good old Franklin his name speaks volumes
The girl in the denim dress and Black turtleneck top was so pretty and she’s right that women did not look 35 and kept insisting that she is “too young “ to be a grandma, that’s perhaps why she was being clowned
Too bad her nasty mouth proved that she may "look nice," but she is a rude, disrespectful person. It's none of her business or yours for that fact, how old the woman is, her age was not the topic of the discussion.
I swear I thought she was in her 50s. There’s no way she’s near my age.
@@dewilew2137 insane lol
The girl in the denim dress came out talking about how it feels to get disapproving looks, treated poorly, and not being excepted then... says something hateful about someone's looks and their age. You have the right to feel the way you feel but... being mean and hateful totally washed out any point you were trying to make.

As someone who's been in a interracial relationship for over 20yrs my opinion is: I can never familiarise myself with anyone other than my partner regardless of their complexion, it's about knowing little things such as the mole on their arm etc that's what love is, being familiar with who your partner is not their complexion.

*Reproduction and Resistance
Women knew that enslavers valued and depended upon their ability to bear children and increase the slave population. With this understanding, enslaved women participated in acts of resistance specific to the labor demanded of them. From avoiding sexual intercourse, to terminating pregnancy, to taking the lives of their own infants, some women resisted slavery by working to control their participation in producing more enslaved children. New mothers risked eventual separation from their children, and if they had daughters, they knew any sexual violence they had experienced could become their daughter’s experience as well. Women used this kind of resistance, therefore, to combat slaveholders’ control over their own bodies and protect their potential children from the horrors of bondage. Women also used their knowledge of plants and medicine-knowledge passed down generationally-as a means of preventing pregnancy and attempting to induce abortions. Medicinal herbs were also used by the slave community to regulate menstrual cycles and assist in births. Their gender-specific knowledge and cultural practices resisted dominant cultural norms. Women’s actions also provided empowerment and control over their bodies. On cotton plantations throughout the South, including Sea Island cotton plantations in the Lowcountry, women chewed cotton roots to prevent pregnancy or end a pregnancy already in progress. Once free to discuss these secretive forms of women’s resistance, formerly enslaved people across the South and South West discussed the commonness of deliberate abortions among the enslaved population. Many slaveholders therefore forbade women from possessing cotton roots and when they discovered enslaved women chewing or storing cotton roots, women paid for their resistance with violent beatings.Women also used herbs and tinctures to regulate their menstrual cycle in order to better track when pregnancy was possible. They also breastfed-sometimes against the slaveholders demands to stop-in hopes of lessening the chance of becoming pregnant.Reproductive resistance among enslaved women illustrates how enslaved women sought to challenge and defy their enslavers in whatever ways they could. The efficacy of their resistance varied depending on the method. However, enslaved women’s decision to avoid or limit their number of pregnancies reveals their commitment to caring for their own bodies and controlling if and when to bring children into the system they endured.

I wasn't necessarily referring to the dating outside of your race thing but the whole 90's in general. But I do think that interracial relationships are more accepted today than they were then. @@yagga8885

If they did this show topic today, year 2023, the people on here would've been CANCELLED or fired from their jobs for being racist. 😅 this is what I liked about the 90s, people with different viewpoints could talk on a public platform and wouldn't have to worry about being attacked by the public for having differing (at times hurtful or conflicting) opinions.
@naev.3344 na today Foundational Black Americans would agree we should seperate. Integration was a detriment to our people. We are not our elders who fell for this set up. It is white people who make consistent commercials of biracial families. We do not promote that. It has never been a benifit for our people to have children with an open enemy such as Caucasians and the honorary whites from the rest of the world. We do not promote even having children with africans or asians etc. It is rare with our people to be with these people
@@mikejones-wn1swAbsolutely agree. We are continuously bombarded with interracial commercials with mixed children and degenerate filth in lyrics on mainstream radio for our children to hear. If you've noticed, there are also billboards popping up in white areas that talk about the dangers of opiod addiction and always use a black person's face, like they aren't the ones that have been addicted for decades. Same thing with billboards showing "pregnant and scared" and using a black woman's face. I'm sick of it. We have got to get something going that turns the tides to all of this backwards madness. Too many broken homes inflicting mental trauma on our children's minds.
Agree. Today the speech police is on everybody's mouth
The reason it impacts their jobs today is because it financially hurts the person being affected by racism and the company's brand. A racist person might be a leader at a company and refuse to higher women, poc or disabled ppl. That impacts ppl in that groups ability to make money even if they are qualified for the position. The comment loses customers if found to employ racist ppl as well as losses the ability to have a diverse workforce. Diversity matters in a workforce because has been proven statistically to generate better ideas, solutions, and innovation.
@@brespeed3633 i get what you are saying, as you are saying something the media states regularly about diversity in the workforce. However, I don't agree that a racist will not hire someone different. There are plenty of racist cooperations out here that don't mind using POC for labor or as clientele (for our hardearned money) but you won't see black or brown faces sitting at their private dinner table or hanging out with them after dark. A great example of this is the all the American wars leading up to WW2, blacks were fighting in the war alongside whites because they needed more bodies - all the while they were still lynching and barring blacks from whites only spaces. Blacks were American enough to fight in the army and pay taxes but not American enough to dance at the 50s sock hop with Johnny and Billy Jean.
I do agree - You are right, the diversity did lead to some huge victories with black fighters like the Tuskegee Airmen changing the course of history but did it change the views of the racist? No. Imo at least it was no secret that someone was racist back then and that's better than someone smiling in your face pretending to like you when they are only tolerating you or using you as a token to fill some diversity quota.
“You don’t look 35”!! 😂😂😂
Glad Ricki gave the 1 audience woman kudos for being both brave and honest
Yeah. Shes part of the problem though. I do agree that I personally would never date interacially to have kids cause as a biracial person I can attest that life was hard growing uo but only because black people themselves were the most racist towards me, no other race.
@@60wwediva Just because you had a bad experience in the SMALL PART of this world we have, doesn't mean they represent ALL black people. Now it is YOU that is part of the problem.
@@60wwediva if she's part of the problem then so are you... you're literally agreeing with her.
@@60wwedivaPeople who invalidate your experience don't like the fact that black people can be racist themselves.
@60wwediva my mom is biracial and also warns me about dating outside My race because of this, but in my opinion every race is treated unfairly and you have to teach them how to deal with it and be strong, not stop loving the person you love because you fear what others will do.
Ricki Lake was cute herself, with her thick legs❤
😂 Keep your eyes at shoulder lecel
For real though! Ricki Lake looked good!
You could have just said cute and left it at that.
Oh my God she don’t look 35 at all. I’m glad somebody said it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 GREG was flammin!! aint no way that was real!!
😂
Ok! He farts fire and shits skittles.
@@mykoniichistorychannelyou tell him kid!!!!

Flamming Homosexual

Dang I feel so old lol, Ricki Lake was always my fave as well as Sally Raphael. Both legends ❤
To more full episodes 🙏🏽🥂
To more full episodes! 🥂
This mother's honesty is refreshing. One might not agree with her views, but parents for millennia have had strong opinions about the relationships of their children. I wouldn't marry a girl whose parents were dead set against us. Too toxic, and not worth it.
Me neighter..... I think it's ok to just date in their own community.... I'm Black
Yeah I agree with you on that. If their family don't like you then it's not worth it. Unless you move far away from them and live your own lives.
@@Confessions089 The problem will remain if they are close together. Because over the phone you fan hear them talking down on you and what will happen on visits. The person who has a toxic family need to tell them that its or they change or he/she wont allow this negativity in his/her life anymore. Its nightmare and will bring to many argument with ppl like this
It doesn't matter if your parents like or dislike your partner. They picked their partner and therefore you need to pick who makes you happy. It's your life and you are the ones making your own life together. If your parents don't like it too bad, at some point you have to grow up and make your own decisions for your adult life. You can't be a child forever.
@@JulieT.. it is very true but unfortunately many adults have not grow up and because they stick to their mommy it becomes very toxic
Like living in a threesome household even when they live far away
Greg no way he straight 😂
That mom needs to accept Franklin into her heart. He seems like a nice guy and if he takes good care of her and her kids and treats them right then who cares. We are all the same on the inside.
Franklin is quite silly. It is never wise to put yourself into a family where they hate you. This girl he is with is no spring chicken and is a mother of two. It looks like classic self hatred, sadly, by poor Franklin
@@kimanimzalendo367agreed. The black woman who spoke last is the only one with sense
Yeah I was thinking this. Most black men are not ok with a black women being with a white man but they date white women all the time. I say it don't matter at all but even most black women don't want to date white men either. I think this is cause they know their family won't accept the white man. It will make the baby light black and correct me if I'm wrong but I was told by a black friend that his cousin gets shit by the family for not being black enough. They call him a white boy while he clearly has the skin tone of the rock Dwayne Johnson.
@@kimanimzalendo367 Not sure why it chaps your asses so much, but love is love. No spring chicken? She was 27! If you’re one red hot second older than that, you better recognize yourself for what you are - OLD, USED UP AND GROSS. God why are people so hateful. She has kids, he knows that and is good to all 3 of them. This has to be racism you can’t actually be serious.
I bet nothing has changed today
There’s no way that woman is 35...I refuse to believe that.
Do you mean that she is more than or less than
She meant 45
Yea, no way. She’s in her 40’s.
Timestamp?
@31:45 she’s was 19?!? 😳
