Black Women: True Love Conquers All!

[lorgo70]

Great vid!...could you tell me the name/singer of the last song please

[nikkinicole901]

its a movie about the lovings right?

[SexyVelour]

@nikkinicole901 This is a collection of various true stories about black women/ white men interracial couples in the U.S. One of the couples is the Lovings.

[Tychaification]

I noticed that black women and white men couple last forever the black men and white women couple. why is that?

[ivaleo06]

It's really encouraging to know such stories of courageous people who were honest (and still are)  one to another! Really brave souls! It is very hard to float against the stream. My congratulations!

[GwenaelJohnson]

Could you tell me what's the first song please !!!! :(

[SexyVelour]

@GwenaelJohnson "Honeysuckle Rose" by Ella Fitzgerald.

[GwenaelJohnson]

La première femme ressemble à Kéké Palmer

The first woman lookl like Kéké Palmer !

[spainishgirl]

beautiful and very powerfully done!!

BRAVO!!!

[mecca115able]

i remember the lovings when i was a little girl. i date whitemen. but not all are my cup of tea. but i found companionship with a wonderful texan. go figure..lol

[BelleAndTheBoy]

Wow, great video with great music. I'm so happy these people found each other and blazed these crucial social trails. I'd love to know where you got the photo at 0:13 from... she's gorgeous.

[vickskat]

You've got fantastic taste in music. Ella will always be the Queen. Always.

[OoLoveo0]

Wow, of these stories, I've only heard of Loving vs Virginia...Who know those pairings-black women + white men pretty much paved the way for all interracial couples...Correct me if I'm wrong, but yeah.

[ElegantPaws01]

Here is the solution people. Marry the person that brings you joy...end of discussion. Don't give a shit what shade he is.

[Cerebralcinema]

Love conquers all!

[Trev286]

a lot of our friends and some family members abandoned us when I started dating my black boyfriend back in the 70's,but we didnt really mind,because the love and happiness we have made up for the loss

[MKHDP]

Such a cool and classy video! My hats off to you!!  Looking forward to more!!!

[misric17]

[choclatdoll5]

This video was done with such Grace and Beauty. Simply flawless. Loved it!!! =).

[SexyVelour]

@choclatdoll5 Thank you so much. :)

[VvsSovann]

I am the creator of Beyondskindeepu.ning .com and Bwamu2.ning.com (Both for interracial relations...one for all inter racial socializing and the other specifically for Black Women and Asian Men. I sing, perform magic, into MMA, and all around artist. What do you do?

[Purple558]

My grandmother was a Black Indian from Virginia(who could pass for White) and married my grandfather who was White. Did'nt know how perilous it was until this video. My mother married a white man(my father) didn't know how brave they were either!

I've always been proud of my mutlti-racial hertige, now i'm even prouder of my family!

This was a beautiful video BTW.

[hershey504]

this is absolutely beautiful. great job.

[impatientwithdesire]

Hey Velour, you have great music interests. I love old jazzy melodies. And the content was excellent. Dont worry, there are black women all over the world who are really changing their lives up for the better. And you are helping the fight along. It's great being a black woman, isn't it?

[diakrite]

Great vid! Nice reflection on a, frankly, sickening, ad still disconcerting past.

In the end, do we not all just want love? And isn't it the stupidest thing to exclude a large portion of women/ men ,because they are "the wrong skin-color"??

[mynusum]

I could watch this a million times! Absolutely beautiful! And I love the music!

[SexyVelour]

@mynusum Thanks!

[Billiegean]

Went straight to the heart. Thank you so much for upping. 5 STARS!!!

[Billiegean]

[bluejay00234]

[SexyVelour]

Thanks. :)

[bluejay00234]

This was beautiful, thank you.

[snoops71]

Lovely video! Very educational, too.

[123pelerin]

love knows no color. congratulations to all interracial couples!

[jolieprelude]

WOW very interessting video! Thanks for postin!

[SexyVelour]

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed.

[empressabrilst]

who sings the honeysuckle rose song in this version?

[SexyVelour]

Ella Fitzgerald.

[MsTemptation]

That was very informative and beautiful at the same time. Thank you.

[SexyVelour]

@MsTemptation Thanks! :)

[MsKia0302]

Very Well Done!

[Nicewarmandcozee]

Dorothy Dandridge is featured in the first pics, not sure who the other lady is, but the woman with the white guy is Pearl Bailey. Pearl Bailey's daughter is bi-racial.

[SexyVelour]

Oh, yes, you're right...that is Pearl Bailey. I recognize her husband now. She looks totally different there.

[latingirl46]

Whats the couple in 0:22 ?

[SexyVelour]

I'm not sure who the couple is...they were pictured in a very old issue of JET Magazine. They were just an every day White man/Black woman couple, I believe.

[latingirl46]

very beautiful couples

and wow..back then the men were HOT

[SexyVelour]

People were beautiful in the '40s.

Well, they still are, but in a different way lol.

[brittneyDubyah]

what a beautiful video that was. i love to see interracial couples, it makes me feel like there is hope for this world. those who a racist don't realy know love.

[Lipsandass]

How beautiful! I cried through most of it!

[BahamaLatte]

Sexy Velour - THANK YOU!!! so much for this amazing video! You really put your heart into this work of art!

[SexyVelour]

Thanks. :-)

[irenekatrina2004]

Now you all have to agree that was crazy beautiful.....

[Hammeron2M]

I live in a larger city now I notice it all the time it's what you decide to see that leads you to become who you are :)

[Hammeron2M]

Thank you from someone with a visual impediment I was about 6 years old when I realized racial hate is wrong.I met this kid from Detriot at that time he would try to hussle my candy,but we got over that

and so about 12 years later I meet an interacial couple at a retreat camp and this is all I can recall in my childhood of meeting people of another race.If I met native,asian or other it must be because I din't get it,maybe I still don't :)

[berries22]

it's incredible how these couple had to endured back in the days when racism were at it's worst..so, when i see these videos that nic-picking at interracial love...i look at this video and i think love like this is very possible and can be everlasting.....well, in conclusion i think the video was beautiful, and the music fit perfectly, thanks for posting it

[princessmeow123]

BRAVO!!!!

[pqz91]

Beautiful...thank you for this

[blindkittysCANcry]

i LOVE the pic at 6:04

[blindkittysCANcry]

what are the name of the songs? they're beautiful :]

[SexyVelour]

The first is "Honeysuckle Rose," then "My Kind of Love"...both sung by Ella Fitzgerald, and the last is "Perfect Angel" by Minnie Riperton.

[blindkittysCANcry]

thank you thank you thank you!!!

[avastacia]

did the first couple have any children?

[SexyVelour]

I tried to find that information for you...but unfortunately I can't. All the articles that mentioned the couple just tell about their struggle and the happy ending of still being wed until this day. Sorry.

[avastacia]

wow, i really appreciate you doing that for me; thanks a lot for trying, though! *^_^*

[MzBrownEyez94]

Very Nice!! True Love at it's best !!

Best wishes and blessings to all the couples!!

[bigcitygal]

Did you see the music video with Ciara and Enrique Iglasias? It's pretty hot! The song is Taking Back My Love.

She also did one with Justin T. but I like this one better.

[SexyVelour]

I saw the Ciara/Enrique video a while back...very passionate. They have chemistry.

[MrBerlin333]

i loved it-- great work --keep up the awesome work...........

[SexyVelour]

Thanks! :)

[Ariegiggles]

Well researched. You should put the song and title bar in the side panel.

Well done.

[poufkimashoula]

What's the name of that movie at 5:03. I've seen it once and I love it but I can't find it because I don't remember the name. All I know is that it's a true story

[poufkimashoula]

PLEASE, where did you get those photos. I want them! These women have so much class. And the fact that is old days makes it even more romantic!

[XXRaymondo]

Met, fell in love, married. That's all they needed, the brave people in this vid whose love trancended the hate and prejudice that was around in their day. A wonderful vid to post.

[Machelle3200]

people love who they love...it's really nothing for people to be losing sleep about...

[ladysoulsinger]

Simply "Classic"

[wwwjbcitycom]

Its so true.. love conquers all regardless of incompatibilities, fighting and quarrels.. in the end if two people love each other they will make it happen.

[Oneintelligentwoman]

The video is very classy!!!!!

[sgtrius]

I like these videos made and the fact that put education facts about the couples also. becuase there are some ir couples who want to be involved just for the obectification or contraversial reasons. I've noticed also that in the media when they have articles about history of civil rights or black history this Loving v. Virginia case never included, that I've seen anyway. I just put a 1967 news video for Mr and Mrs Loving on my page.

[jamesgirl37]

wow i loved this

[Dechellem]

Awesome video........

[wirewipeout]

god is a woman. and black. whoever said that first, maybe its true.

[Mebako]

That was really cute & informative! Good job!

[jebeja]

Thanks for another lovely video. Nia and Michael (Big Shots) didn't get a chance to 'finish out' their storylines, so I'm waiting to see what becomes of Jada Pinkett Smith and Michael Vartan now from 'HawthoRNe'.

[VikingJuggalo]

Saved saved and saved again, I have favorited this vid. Lovely work

[SexyVelour]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed. :)

[Misty15big]

Thankyou sooooo much for posting this... I get alot people hating because my boyfriend is white and i'm black. This is really inspirational and touching :)

[SexyVelour]

Thanks for the comment...I'm glad the video inspired you. When it feels right and the love is true...don't let others get you down. Fight for your love no matter what. Difficult times only make the bond that ties you two together grow stronger once you get through it. The payoff of being so close and developing a deep trust makes it all worth it. :)

[tinktink66]

Shake the haters off and just keep on loving...each other, always.

[vintagenarcissa]

Absolutely beautiful video! Very touching :D

[flawlesschic101]

I responded yesterday and mentioned Minnie Riperton. I just wanted to add that TV One has a series called Unsung. They did a segment on Minnie Riperton and it's posted right here on youtube. It has much footage of her, her husband and children from back then when she was alive and interviews of them today. Just saying if you decide to add her in one of you videos :)

[SexyVelour]

Thanks a lot. :)

[SexyVelour]

I haven't forgotten your suggestion on Minnie Riperton. I'll be doing that one very soon.

[LOUISEMANDRELLGUY]

WOW!!! The music, the pics, and the storytelling are all great! They're intertwined beautifully. You're doing an excellent job with your videos Velour! AN EXCELLENT JOB INDEED!!!

[TheUncommonWoman9K]

This is an absolutely lovely video. It's as beautiful as it is endearing. Thank you for uploading it,Sexy Velour.

[Daninism]

Great vid.

[fatimama7]

loved this vid! especially for the interesting information :-)

[nubnup]

Absolutely beautiful video Thank you !!

[ififellinlove77]

how incredible!!! I really recommend that your read "Race Mixing" by Renee Christine Romano if you haven't already. You will find it incredibly insightful. Please take my advice and read the book. I know you'd love it! Wonderful and informative video. Keep up the good work. We all need to be educated!

[Sohaila95]

AMAZING! Thanks so much SexyVelour!

[flawlesschic101]

Thanks so much, this is truly beautiful. I enjoy the IR videos but many have photos of couples that are not real, they are from tv shows etc... You have spent some time getting your facts and accompanying them with real photos.

BTW. I noticed that Minnie Riperton's music is often used. How about a video of her and her hubby?  I know that she is no longer with us but she married a gorgous white man that was crazy for her.They had 2 beautiful children and her daughter is Maya Rudolph of SNL.

[SexyVelour]

I did a video on the Prince and Princess of Liechtenstein called "Your Prince Will Come." I think you might enjoy that one.

[Iberianwildwolf]

It's beautiful, love the music and the video.

In my country there was no proihibition of marriage between races, in fact it was encouraged between white men and indigenous and black women. The segregation was between black men and white women.

I'll try to post a vídeo sometime about this.

Thanks for sharing Velour!

[sho19931]

I love your video.

[jamiedbaby3]

nice vid ~

Love the song too and very educationaL ;-)

[AimeeViolette]

ugh omg so beautiful...its just perfect!!thank you so much!!!

[SheRocks07]

WOW!! I didn't know some of these stories, thank you SV for this powerful message!! Love the songs you chose.

[nubianbrown]

I can't find the words to describe how beautiful your video is! I am truly touched as to how thoughtful it was created! How you intricately pieced everything....the music....the pictures....the history! I felt as though you took me through a time capsule and I was able to witness each couple's beautiful journey! The bad but most importantly the good! Thank you for sharing this and confirming to us all that true love does conquer all!

[Edobeninking]

What a wonderful video, thank you for sharing!!!

[TeYoJe]

One of the most beautiful and original videos I have seen here on YouTube. Great job at capturing true love . . .

Peace & Love Forever.

TeYoJe

[nubianbrown]

OMgosh! I'm already done at seeing the lovely Dorothy Dandridge!! Pearl Bailey!!!

Amazing video SV!

Love, love love it!!!!

[myjrpics]

This video should be sent to all of the angry BM on youtube stating that in the past WM only raped BW and never married them.

[skypurple15]

Amen!

[blackegypt08]

Another great video! I had never heard of most of these couples, but their stories and the longevity of their relationships proves once again that TRUE LOVE has no color.

[lunadeapril]

Amazing, im learning to trust that if its true love then it will find a way despite how things look... we will see , great Video!

[Heartofgold85]

Once again great!great! video. I love the storyline behind each couple. Very good! Keep them coming. Great job!!!

[thedarknesscallingme]

you really have found your alpha and omega with making these vids ^^

its just so beautiful to see such love blossom, and they always say the same normal thing "we met, fell in love and wanted to get married" it is a sentance that has echoed down through history.

[Radiantsmiler]

SV, what can I say that hasn't been said? This video is of great quality! The music, pictures, text...all complimented each other, educate and entertained us. What ever you do for a living, I hope it is in the visual arts...because you definitely have a knack! Thank you!

[TonyN737]

Nice work and good research. It's amazing how things we take for granted today were so taboo just a few decades ago.

[BlkgrlsRfine]

SexyVelour did you watch tvone unsang about Minnie Riperton? Omg it was so touching.. Grl you did a great job!

[SexyVelour]

I didn't get to see that...hopefully there's a clip of it somewhere online. I'll look for it. Thanks for letting me know. :)

[SexyVelour]

I haven't forgotten your suggestion on Minnie Riperton. I'll be doing that one very soon. :)

[skypurple15]

SexyVelour you've done it again! I love this vid and the history that you put into it! =)

[missaquaboogie]

Perfect angel song is so beautiful <3

I love Minnie Riperton, what a voice!

[missaquaboogie]
