Actor Derek Luke defends Wife on Twitter

​

They've been married 17 years, have a 9 yr old child together, and they love each other. Beautiful couple.

 

Disgusting how racially ignorant people are in this world. If anyone has ever heard of what he did for her at Independent Spirit Awards awhile back here is the brief story >>http://www.contactmusic.com/derek-luke/news/luke-leaves-wife-sobbing-at-spirit-awards-

These two are so in love it's beautiful no matter what race they are. But these cold people who obviously have NOT experience real love, don't give a fuck, he's not with a black woman so it's like fuck their love go after them... and they always call her white when she is a latina. Just proving their racial ignorance.

 

People get stuck on race but not if they are happy

 

U can ignore bs for only so long

 

Like the late, great Richard Pryor said, " Nobody wants to see the black man happy." 19 years together is a long time for interracial couples. People who slander a couple because of their different racial make-up as a couple are simply having no life of their own whatsoever. Derek shouldn't even give the haters any screen time at all. He should just give the a lot of something else; shade. Don't bring haters to the light. They don't deserve it. Love on.

 

That's a real man. Gorgeous couple

 

Is she Hispanic?? She looks Middle Eastern or Indian too.

 

Yeah i feel ya

 

She likely falls under the umbrella of Caucasian...Regardless, in their eyes she is non-black, and that's all they see.

That article was wonderful to read..He just adores her...what a team. :smt008
Thanks for the anecdote, DC.

 

Good for them. They are happy together. That is all that matters. Let the unhappy suffer.

 

Yeah, she's a Mexican/Chicana mestiza (mixed Aztec/indigenous and Spaniard).

And much respect to him for telling those people where they can get off. People kill me having opinions about what is taking place in someone else's bedroom.

 

You're welcome.

 

Let's be for real here. The problem is when a BLACK MAN dates outside of his race (especially when it is a white woman). When a black woman dates or marries a white man, they don't have a problem with that. But somehow when a black man does it, there is a problem and he is a traitor to his race.

This narrative has carried on for far too long

 

Society has a problem with black men enjoying the same sexual rights and prerogatives that white men enjoy. It's still sexist, in that men have privileged access over women, but it centers of social prohibition of full freedom to black men to do as they please in the way that white men do.

 

Bullshit

 

They have a problem with it, just not to the levels when black men do it.

 

Yes but bm also have a problem with theirs and with IR period.

Dont act like bm are cool with wwbm relations as well as bwwm.

 

I'm not, I said they have a problem with it. I was speaking within levels.

 

Also I am not generalizing ANY race, in case anyone else are reading me wrong.
