Was dating while Black always so hard?
Discovering her past: Element uncovers her roots through African Ancestry DNA testing Tarik Moody
Was dating while Black always so hard?
Dating can be tough. Dating while Black? That can feel nigh impossible sometimes, given how the long tentacles of racism have wrapped themselves around every aspect of our lives (and hearts.) But was dating any easier in the past? We’re putting that question to the test on this special Valentine’s Day episode of the pod. We revisit a conversation with audio storyteller and host of the podcast, Our Ancestors Were Messy, Nichole Hill. She takes us back in time to 1937, using archival personal ads from the Washington Afro-American to show us what it was like for Black folks to date almost a century ago.
