Jamal Woolard Opens Up About His Interracial Dating Experiences
On February 19, Atlanta Black Star shared an enlightening YouTube video featuring an almost eight-minute discussion where Woolard participated in a panel alongside Claudia Jordan and other prominent figures. During this insightful exchange, Woolard candidly reflected on his choice to date outside his race, stating, “I was dating outside of my race because they were doing things better than my race.” This statement sparked considerable debate and prompted a correction regarding his use of the term “better.”
After revising his choice of words, Woolard elaborated:
“I was dating Puerto Rican… Dominican… African — all types of other races besides American Black. They were doing way more of what we expect our American [women] to do… I didn’t really have to say much to do or be treated like a king. A lot of times with our own American women, they expect so much of us and what we’re supposed to do…”
Woolard further suggested that Black American women tend to focus on material possessions, claiming they often desire expensive items like “Birkin bags and Gucci.” This assertion quickly ignited conversations across social media platforms.
Check out the clip below for his full remarks.
Interestingly, it’s worth noting that Woolard is currently in a relationship with an African American woman named Michelle.
Reactions Pour In: Social Media Responds to Jamal Woolard and Sierra Gates
Immediately, social media users reacted passionately, filling The Shade Room’s comment section with their thoughts and critiques of Woolard’s statements.
Instagram user @therealciara.a commented, “To my fellow Black American women, we lost nothing here..”
Another user, @angelfaceaqua remarked, “‘I ain’t have to say or do much to be treated like a king.’ – a man that wants to do the bare minimum and receive the maximum.”
Instagram user @cocoa_d_luxe expressed, “Women of other races have standards and expectations. Yet, we often see that Black men resist the notion of Black women having similar standards. They tend to overlook the expectations set by other races while devaluing ours.”
User @its_karmina stated, “To all my fellow American Black women, do not cherry-pick the message here! We often get offended too easily. I grew up around women who expected to be treated like queens but reciprocated nothing! It’s not fair to Black men. There’s a valid point in what he’s saying, and if so many are saying it, there must be some truth to it, right?…”
Instagram user @frankjiogo noted, “The women you date often reflect your behavior. Perhaps those from other races treat you differently because subconsciously, you are treating them differently. You place them on a pedestal, treating them better than you do Black women…”
User @marmarfirst chimed in, “Dear Black Men, your issues aren’t with Black women but stem from unresolved conflicts with your mothers. It may be time to invest in therapy rather than relationships.MANAGEMENT-”
Lastly, Instagram user @thedayonewatch remarked, “Black women have been told this numerous times and still choose not to listen. At this point, you are literally failing an open book test.”
User @shaunachin concluded, “He refers to her as “the Indian one” and can’t even remember where she’s from. Take notes, ladies.”
Furthermore, Sierra Gates did not hold back in her criticism of Woolard, stating:
“His breath smells like the bottom of a toilet; a sista can’t take that! This is a real fact; we used to have to let the window down in the car even if it was cold outside when he talked [vomiting emoji].”
