As a Black woman living in the United States, the prospect of becoming a parent one day is both exciting and terrifying. The world offers endless possibilities and opportunities, but ignoring the challenges and harsh realities that disproportionately affect Black and Brown communities is impossible.
Unfortunately, there’s no escaping the pigment of your skin and the pervasive sting of systemic racism and racial discrimination. This reality exists across the globe. Altogether, every country is affected, as countries of color are taken hold by colorism. Comparatively, there’s something sinister about American racism. Even European countries, the OG colonizers, look at us incredulously.
Here are some reasons why I won’t be raising my future Black children in the United States.
Gun Violence in America
Poor Education Systems
Disparities Harming Black Communities
Considering the Future
This decision is rooted in love and the desire to provide children a safer, more equitable, and nurturing environment. But this conversation should go beyond individual choices and focus on collective and community efforts. Can the U.S. work towards positive change and make the world a better place for our future kids to thrive? In the end, it’s about doing what’s best for our children and future children and ensuring that they have the opportunities and support they need to lead fulfilling lives.

I also doubt she’ll make the effort. What I was getting at was that she’ll find plenty of “the pervasive sting of systemic racism and racial discrimination” there, though they’ll be very polite about it. Still, not much gun violence, and good schools for those who want to learn, so Japan should be just a great place for her and her children, with or without their dad (the dad seemed optional, as nearly as I could tell).
You’ll have to share it. 🙂
Liberia, if she has a source of income.
She has no kids! This is hypothetical nonsense.
Yes, HIGH YELLOW or WHITE husband; however, is THAT really a picture of them? In the article she says that she doesn’t have any children yet.
To the socialist author: we collectively thank you, and hope you consider leaving permanently.
I shall; it hits YouTube, Amazon Music, SPOTIFY, and other sites on March 22!
Excellent! As the old joke goes, it would be a shame if there are any empty seats on your bus when you bag-ass out of the USA.
If not “Bye,” then how about “Adios.”
Just like Kamala’s mother.
They will be polite only to a point.
And then they will become very blunt. In general to the Japanese unless you are Japanese you are lesser.
White Americans, if they act properly, are almost given equal status with the Anui. Not quite you understand. But just a couple of degrees... well maybe four or five degrees lower. But that is only because we fought them and kicked their butts. They resent it but they also respect it.
The rest of the world is populated by talking animals.
The end result was a combination of wage stagnation for blacks as they emerged from segregation and a sudden path to prosperity and independence for unwed mothers. Older blacks saw and condemned the ensuing wave of fatherless boys prone to violence, drugs, and crime. Younger blacks though embraced the explanation that the problems of their own misbehavior were somehow caused by racism.
Good catch and meaningful
Nicely summed up. And Chinese are perhaps even more thoroughly convinced of their own superiority, IMO, possibly because they haven’t lost a major war recently.
MSN = Total Propaganda.
Zero Credibility.
If only Wakanda was real.
There’s plenty of space in Africa. What’s stopping her?
She could an American African
Just one question, Aysia: “Why haven’t you left yet?”
