Bizarre as it may seem, there are still those among the white community that believe that black people are some type of leper…

It’s not at all racist Errol, there a big difference between disapproving of your daughter having an interracial relationships and being opposed to them in general.

This from Stefania Harris over at Steph’s Blog. Of course it is racist Steph, you’re stopping your daughter from dating a negro purely on the basis of race. You are not interested in him as a person, nor what he can offer, you are pre judging him based on the fact that he is a negro. That Stefania, is the very definition of racism.

Saying it is OK to discriminate against people based on race is naive and offensive. Especially from a lawyer.

Further affirmation that Ms Harris is conceding that she was fallacious:

In the UK inter-ethnic relationships are set to rise but not black-white relationships. The continuation of the black population at is current levels is very unlikely because although interracial relationship are extremely rare per percentage of the population, they are common in the black population.

Pardon? Kindly repeat that last part…

because although interracial relationship are extremely rare per percentage of the population, they are common in the black population.

Naturally, and the black population is the only one of consequence when discussing interracial relationships within the black community, isn’t it Stefania? Obviously the number of white women dating black men is going to be low because, as Jake pointed out in the comments, there are 25+ million white women and only 600,000 black men, so it is the number of black men that are dating white women that is important and the best indicator of interracial relationships.

With around 50% of black men currently dating a white woman, you could say that it is clear that interracial relationships are the norm.

I tried to post this, as usual on Steph’s blog, but as usual it was deleted. It was in response to this comment by Stefania Harris:

0.4% of white women in England and Wales are in mixed-ethnic marriages, which is 1% of the 9,900,000 married white women in England and Wales. Less than 1-2,500 is married to a black Caribbean man. The number of black males over 16 is less than 1% of the population of England and Wales.

Hmm interesting, so Steph, what you are basically saying is that 17% of black Caribbean men in Britain are married to white women? Well that is good, especially as only 50% of black men are married, which means that a third of married black men, are married to white women!

It is good to see that there are still people confronting Stefania Harris over her views of blacks and racism in the UK. Darryl makes some interesting points, but he, like most of the readers of that blog perhaps, are missing the big point about the statistics that Steph uses.

Those statistics don’t mean anything.
