”Honestly, do you think my granny would say the same if I took a nice black or Asian girl home?!I think at the end of the day, it's a cultural thing.We live in a society where white supremacy and systemic racism are norms, and people of color — especially men — are often demonized and looked down upon.One of the experts Tran talks to is Katie Chen of Two Asian Matchmakers.Tran talks to professional matchmakers, social science experts and people in interracial relationships to figure out why people — and in particular, Asian men — reacted so negatively to her love life.She shares some of the nasty comments she gets when she shares pictures of her mixed-race nieces and nephews, and explores the complex reactions that interracial couples get from people of all ethnicities.I'm grateful for Tran's project because I can relate on a very personal level.
But what do you do when the insults get uncomfortably personal?
Chen tells Tran that her matchmaking service, which is targeted toward Asian people, sometimes receives requests from women who only want to date white men.
