Of Course it is!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The other day I check my inbox to find an extremely long email from a woman who I don\u2019t know. At first glance I think, \u201chow sweet.\u201d She goes on to say she is very familiar with my work and like most fans, debated on how many pregnancies I\u2019ve had. After some online research, she stumbles across my blog. That\u2019s when the tone of her email changes.<\/p>\n<p>This woman begins explaining why she \u201cdespises dark women of color like myself who wear weaves.\u201d For the record I wear a wig, but whatever. Her opinion of me has changed upon learning that I\u2019m \u201canother self-hating dark black woman married to a white man who was the mother of biracial children.\u201d The tongue-lashing continues as she makes all kinds of accusations, including questioning the love I have for my so called \u201ccreamy kids.\u201d Apparently, my \u201clove is warped by leftover, damaging remnants of slavery and white supremacy\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s funny is that I laughed while reading this sad and pathetic message. This woman also states that she sympathizes with me because her own mother has \u201csuffered from the same affliction,\u201d which explains why she has light skin and long hair. The fact that she has nothing better to do with her time than bash my family and me is hilarious.<\/p>\n<p>You may be wondering why I decided to even waste my time writing a response. The answer is simple. I have two children, and they\u2019ll probably read this some day. They\u2019ll have to deal with racism at some point in their lives. My goal is to teach them the importance of not letting anyone dictate who they should be with, and not to let negative opinions define who they are as a person. Being\u00a0in a healthy relationship\u00a0is\u00a0all that matters. I could have <a href=\"http:\/\/weatheranchormama.com\/2012\/02\/17\/are-mixed-marriages-likely-to-fail\/\">deleted her message<\/a>. But, I have decided to leave it up on my blog as a reminder that racism is alive and well.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019d all like to think that bigotry will eventually die out. But, that ain\u2019 t gonna happen. For those who think that just because we have a black\/biracial president we\u2019re in the clear, think again. I won\u2019t dignify this woman\u2019s rant with an explanation as to why I married my husband. I won\u2019t make apologies for being with the person I love. But, those who have a problem with it can go kick rocks with flip-flops.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2792\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weatheranchormama.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/IMG_7851-682x1024.jpg?resize=611%2C917\" alt=\"happy siblings day\" width=\"611\" height=\"917\" \/><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3123\" style=\"width: 603px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3123\" class=\" wp-image-3123\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/weatheranchormama.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/DSC_9263_Gooden-682x1024.jpg?resize=593%2C890\" alt=\"Family-Photo-Weather-Anchor-Mama\" width=\"593\" height=\"890\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3123\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Viewpoint Photography<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The other day I check my inbox to find an extremely long email from a woman who I don\u2019t know.
