Inter-Racial Relationships

Wednesday at 5 PM Pacific Time on VoiceAmerica Variety Channel

Hosted by Flora Pickett-Coley

Our show is about the importance of not limiting yourself when it comes to love by dating outside your normal standards. Let’s talk about how you can find true love with a person who is completely different from you, and when you least expect it. Men in general don’t stay inside of a box when it comes to dating. Why have women limit themselves by staying inside a certain dating box. These topics and others like them need a forum for discussion.

I plan to discuss such topics with females and males about dating outside their race. Have they ever dated outside their race? Our show will ask the question and hopefully get an answer from black men as to why it’s okay for a black man to date outside their race, but frown upon the relationship when black women date men of a different race. Is there really a double standard, where black men date whomever they want, but want to control who black women date? Join me Wednesdays at 5 PM Pacific on the VoiceAmerica Variety Channel.
