Episode 4

The Highs & Hardships of Interracial Relationships

Description

From education to valuable life experiences, it can be very rewarding to find love with someone who is different from you. An interracial relationship will allow you to broaden your perspectives and share your different approaches in the world. However, interracial couples can also experience challenges due to different backgrounds, identities, viewpoints, and values. In this Brown Sugar Talk episode, we are learning from two interracial couples sharing how they celebrate the highs, tackle the hardships, and maintain empathy. We promise you’ll love this conversation!

Testimonial

Thank you to both couples that spoke about their highs and hardships as interracial couples in Episode 4. As a white woman in an interracial relationship, I am grateful to hear other people’s stories and feel the love that each couple has for one another through the screen. Relationships are sacred and sharing your stories live with the world is so vulnerable and brave.
