Students debate connotations of interracial dating

Andrea Espinoza, ‘11, remembers living in New York City, where she once witnessed a black man walking with a white woman. For three blocks, every single black woman stared at him. She said it wasn’t uncommon for strangers to yell at or even chase couples down the street.

Espinoza’s story was one of many told on Sunday, when dozens of students came together to discuss interracial dating at the UMOJA house.

Several students defined interracial dating differently.

Some students say interracial dating is when there is a visible difference between a couple. However, others argue that it is difficult to tell someone’s race just by looking at them.

Millennials Accept Interracial Dating

Over the last several decades, the American public has grown increasingly accepting of interracial dating and marriage. This shift in opinion has been driven both by attitude change among individuals generally and by the fact that over the period, successive generations have reached adulthood with more racially liberal views than earlier generations. Millennials are no exception to this trend: Large majorities of 18-to-29 year olds express support for interracial marriage within their families, and the level of acceptance in this generation is greater than in other generations.


Asian Girls Dating

There are many reasons to travel. It can be to relax, have fun, experience, or simply to have a change of pace. Traveling can also be about relationships.

Traveling with a companion/lover is often viewed as the best way to travel as you have dedicated time for one another. But what about those of us who aren’t in a relationship? While traveling alone has its advantages, the truth is that traveling without that special someone often just doesn’t cut it.

And we know finding that special someone while on vacation generally doesn’t happen, so we often end up not traveling at all.
