In her book “Don’t Bring Home a White Boy” Karyn Longhorne Folan lays out a set of “notions” that keep black women from dating/marrying anyone who is not black.
The third notion she takes on is “My Family Would Never Accept Him–and His Would Never Accept Me.” Sharing a number of stories about various responses of families to the black woman/white man relationship the author identifies several factors that affect acceptance: generations, geography and gender. It turns out that all three actually matter when it comes to how families respond to the couple.
Age matters. Those who came of age during or before the Civil Rights movement tend to be less open to black women/white men couples. Their own harsh experience of racism has left them with a very understandable distrust of white people in general and of white men in particular. Thus it is harder for folk of that era to be open to black woman/white man couples.
Geography matters. In the places where segregation was the most commonly experienced manifestation of racism there is a lingering tendency to automatically be suspicious of black woman/white man relationships. Women whose families have deep roots in the south have a bigger hill to climb frequently.
Gender matters. Family approval of interracial relationships is most likely lower for black women than it is for black men. Black women are warned about the dangers of dating white men, especially that they will b exploited by white men. This grows out of a true sense of protectiveness. Folan points out that it not uncommon for a black man who is dating a white woman to be disapproving of black women who are dating non-black men.
Then she turns her attention to the man’s family. She trances the various reactions and explores some reasons for it. She also uses a lot of stories for many women to elucidate her points.
She rounds out the chapter with some expert opinions on acceptance. it turns out that acceptance is a mixed bag. It’s not easy to predict and people respond to it in various ways. Some women respond by not even trying and automatically reject the idea of being with a man who isn’t black. Some women respond by giving in to family disapproval, sometimes in spite of the fact that the relationship is going well. Some women resist and fight for their relationship and pay a price of damaged family ties. Some families accept after initial disapproval. Some families are open from the start. Some families never do accept. In the end Folan counsels, “Happiness can be hard enough to come by in life. Don’t throw it away for the sake of other people’s prejudices.”




In her book “Don’t Bring Home a White Boy” Karyn Longhorne Folan lays out a set of “notions” that keep black women from dating/marrying anyone who is not black.
The second notion she takes on is “I’m Looking for My Good Black Man.” First she responds to the question of the shortage of “good black men.” She sites various factors that have led to the situation including:
1. the impact of huge numbers of women becoming more educated and achieving better economic standing
2. the corresponding lack of such progress for black men
3. the rise of the drug culture
4. the effect of the high rate of incarceration on black men,
5. the declining rate of marriage nationwide
But she moves to the more important issue: What is a good black man? She puts forward what she calls the “real deal” list of what educated black women seek in a man. This list has several qualities ranging from compatible value system, good personality, ability to commit, emotional maturity, mental and physical health. And the list also includes:
• Is at least as educated as she is
• Makes at least the same income that she does
• Is as intelligent, well spoken and informed as she is
She adds, “In today’s world you need a man who has mainly intellectual muscles and a good amount of financial muscles too. Financial and educational muscle is a requirement about which many black women and men disagree.”
The rest of chapter is her argument that black women need not be apologetic when it comes to the qualities we seek in a man. However she concludes that we should not be shy about looking for those good qualities in a man regardless of his race.

 

Today on ComicsAlliance, I use the upcoming Archie #608 to launch into a brief discussion of the history of interracial dating and non-white characters in Archie Comics.
It’s entirely possible that this is only of interest to me (and that I am, in fact, the only one who thinks about Archie this much), but there’s one thing that ended up being left out of the finished article, and that’s the double standard between boys and girls when it comes to interracial dating. Though there’ll never be a story where Archie marries anyone but Betty or Veronica, which I think has less to do with the fact that they’re white than with their status as the Classic Love Interests, he’s always seen hitting on other girls. He certainly had an interest in Kimiko, his new Japanese-American classmate, after all.
The boys, however–and as I said in the article, this plays into the classic racist fears of miscegenation leading to the dilution of racial purity–tend to “stick with their own kind,” as the old saying goes. I’m sure there are probably a few exceptions, but in the majority of the stories, it’s like an unspoken agreement at Riverdale High that Chuck needs to be with Nancy, Frankie Valdez needs to be paired with Maria, and… Well, other than Raj Patel, that’s pretty much all the male minority population, and he hasn’t had time to garner a love interest yet.
It’s a clear double-standard that sets up women as objects that need to be protected and men as conquerors, but the minute I start writing that, it becomes a Whole Big Thing, and Laura told me I’d already hit my mandatory Treatment of Women in Comics quota for this month. So please, enjoy the article, and I’ll keep obsessing over the comics that they keep next to Nutter Butters at Bi-Lo.

Betty and Veronica look nervous on this cover...

 

Archie Comics tackles race, sexuality and more

After 70 years, Archie finally found a woman besides Betty or Veronica. It’s Josie and the Pussycats’ Valerie—an interracial romance that points to the company’s progressive new outlook

Archie, you’ve come a long way, baby.
Launched way back in 1941, Archie Andrews and his gang from Riverdale have a longevity matched by very few comic-book characters (all of them superheroes). Reportedly inspired by the Andy Hardy movies, the comic-book series maintained its harmless identity for decades, mixing low-key teen high jinks with the never-ending Archie-Betty-Veronica triangle. Until recently, the Archie Comics company’s most progressive moment likely happened in late 1969, when creators collaborated with Hanna-Barbera animation studios to relaunch the character Josie as the head of a rock band, the Pussycats, with bassist Valerie as the first significant black female character in the comic.
Fast-forward to the 21st century, and Archie Comics has become a bastion of diversity. In striving to marry fun storytelling with modern-day relevance, longtime Archie writer-artist Dan Parent shook up the redhead’s world in 2010 by crafting a new romance: with Valerie! The pair’s interracial kiss was a first. Parent (who’ll be at C2E2, the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo, April 13–15) also created Kevin Keller, Riverdale’s first openly gay student—a character so popular, he got his own monthly series.
Coming up in Archie Comics #631 (on sale March 28), Parent brings Valerie back to Riverdale, prompting a four-issue story line that includes the couple’s fantasy future wedding and a baby. And after that? “Occupy Riverdale” (on sale in July), with one-percenter Veronica on one side, Betty and Jughead on the other, and Archie caught in the middle.
Parent recently spoke to us from his home in Pennsylvania, where he lives with his wife and two teenage kids. A lifelong Archie fan, he’s been employed by the company—first on staff, now as a freelancer—for 25 years.
A lot of people think of Archie Comics as hopelessly dated, like an episode of Happy Days or the even-more-white-bread Leave It to Beaver. Fair assessment?
It’s fair, because Riverdale is a sort of place with a Happy Days atmosphere. Obviously, in the last few years, we’ve updated it. We’ve added characters—a bunch of new kids of different ethnicities—and some 21st-century stories. But Riverdale is still an idyllic small town in America.
How did the comics take a turn to greater social awareness?
We have a new CEO now, Jon Goldwater. We had a meeting two years ago about really bringing Riverdale into the 21st century, adding more diversity. That’s when we decided to also add Kevin Keller.
And how did you decide to pair Archie with Valerie?
I always liked Valerie and thought she was underused. I just thought it would be interesting to find out what their dynamic would be. At first it was going to be just one issue, but then this chemistry evolved because they’re both in bands. But they’re in different bands, which makes it hard for them to get together because [Josie and the Pussycats] are touring the world. It was one of the easiest stories I ever wrote. The dialogue flew out of me.
Now we’re revisiting it [in Archie #631–634] with “Archie Marries Valerie.” Most of the story is set in current day, but Valerie will envision what the future will be like if she marries Archie and they have a baby.
What happens to the couple next?
They’ll still be in love with each other, and we’ll see what happens. In this story line, we establish that Valerie’s family moves to Riverdale. We’re also introducing Valerie’s brother, Trevor—and let’s just say that he and Betty will have a flirtation.
What’s notable about Kevin’s or Archie and Valerie’s plotlines is: They don’t feel like “a very special episode” of a sitcom. Nobody gets worked up about Kevin’s sexuality or Archie or Valerie’s race.
Right, right. We address the fact that Kevin’s gay, but that’s not all he’s about. And with Archie and Valerie, we know it’s an interracial romance, but that’s not really the point of the story.
I wonder when Rick Santorum or Sarah Palin will lead the Archie backlash. Are you surprised that hasn’t happened yet?
I know—I hope they do. But you heard about the Million Mom thing? [The conservative group protested a story set in the future in which Kevin Keller gets married.] To me, it just seems like they have a lot of free time on their hands. When you’re attacking Ellen [DeGeneres] and Archie Comics, you’re grasping at straws. We can’t complain because the issue sold out. Here’s to future boycotts by the Million Moms!
What’s on your agenda for C2E2?
To meet a lot of fans, have lots of fun and draw lots of sketches. I’ll be at Artist Alley with a few other Archie artists, and I’m on a panel talking about rock & roll and comics.
Parent will meet fans at C2E2, April 13–15 at McCormick Place. Look for him at Artist Alley, where he’ll draw sketches for fans (starting at $25). For more kid-friendly events at C2E2, check out timeoutchicagokids.com.

Not a particularly sexy one, but historically important, as it's the first interracial kiss in television history. It's thus a little bit uncomfortable to realize that it only happened in the show's universe because Kirk and Uhura were forced into it by mind-controlling aliens, but hey, progress is progress. Our other favourite "Star Trek" kiss? Data getting in on with Tasha Yar in season one of "The Next Generation" after assuring her that his android body is "fully functional."

 

On June 12th, 1967, interracial couples became legal thanks to the Supreme Court decision entitled Loving v. Virginia. Before that date, states had the right to separate and punish interracial couples. These punishments included imprisonment of up to ten years. Violations included marriage, sex, and living together. This issue is a part of the civil rights movement that is too often forgotten. On June 12th of every year, celebrate your legal right to love a person of any race
