Exactly black is the best thing he ever had ❤

​@@jessicaparker1688no he said the white women was a wonderful person

Strange question, actually. And best answer.

Yeah, I’m a white who grew up in NYC, I’m in my mid 40’s now. In my life I’ve dated so many different races and ethnicities, (my family’s from Ireland) One I dated a Muslim girl, who wore her burka a lot, she had it on the day I met her…in an Irish pub, she was born in Ireland, spoke with an Irish brogue, and knew a fair amount of Gaelic, but the point is, I’ve dated so many different and it never even once dawned on me to compare them by race.

​@@jessicaparker1688reverse racism at its finest. Unlike you, Anthony didn't make race a thing and simply appreciated the women as they were.

🙏

Frfr lol that part

You don’t have to be black to think he’s black as soon as he opened his mouth I was like what’s going on I’m confused

His adopted daddy was black mixed race

He was born in the South and raised is a black neighborhood.

Facts. Kinda blowing my mind right now while I listen as I clean the house this morning. True difference between people adopting a blaccent cause they think it’s cool vs. truly growing up in the culture. This man said “Good lawd” unironically. So good. Hope he can get back to a drug-free life.

When is the wedding ?

@@John_Connor556??

You’re quite right! I’m from an upper middle class family and I became an addict while working on my dissertation. And I graduated with an M.A.! I was never abused, I had a loving family, it’s killing me that I don’t know WHY I’m the only addict in my family. I’ve done so much research on both sides and I keep coming up with NOTHING! I don’t have mental health issues, -per se- I have anxiety, but that’s it. I just liked getting high. I’ve been on Suboxone for 14 years. Best of luck to those still struggling! Love & Light from Miami Shores🦚 Stay safe mates✌🏼🌎 Have a care for one another✨🫧

Absolutely !

TLDR "I'd hit that"

💯 I want him too!

no shade but I’m not seeing the attraction and Im his age

@@toastysmalls2562 actually not. Crushing on someone doesn’t always mean wanting sex, except maybe to a woman like you, a woman with a white liver.

@@yattamook he has a certain swag to him. Perhaps not all women would be drawn to that but I would find him interesting.

has the African American dialect down pact

Yep but usually it's the women

Yes between healthcare and being the greatest pool players ever..

Black people are commonly care givers too, especially as cnas

Did you watch the video?

Same please 🙏

yes!!

Mark..let them talk but ask questions too

I would like to know about him meeting his Dad

A Great Deal are from good homes. They come from every faucet of life. Drugs & Alcohol are colorblind, Addiction doesn't choose families, or financial status😢.

​@dhalladay27 I have a neighbor that told her teen daughter.."It's not just poor people" I always thought when I was that age...more money, easier access. No going to jail for violent efforts to get the drug. Just pay'em

This comment is weird...

You are delusional

​@@dhalladay27There's almost always some kind of past trauma that usually stems from the family. I'd say that's the biggest percentage by far. Either that, or external trauma. I'd like to see a major focus on psychology for kids. That might be the best chance for helping make changes.

It didn’t break your heart. ❄️

@@terrytownsend5583wym?

This was SUCH a problematic comment, along with several others along the same lines. Anthony responded beautifully / diplomatically, but I found the line of questioning really alarming and am surprised to see so few calling it out in the comments.

I'm glad that I wasn't the only one who picked up on that. I have a family member who is fully white and was raised in our black family. Nobody encouraged him to just have fun. Education and doing the right thing was and is quite important to us. And we never treated h any different. This man was shown love despite not being biologically related and it seems the interviewer thought that his black family is the cause of his problems. Disgusting!

@@kstarrrRight? I immediately raised an eyebrow, too.

@@kstarrr He showed his true colors.

Exactly, Im Asian and growing up my neighbors were black my neighbors kids graduated USC and Brown university the parents are still together, my family doesn't talk and not one of us finished community college and my parents divorces when I was 14, that stereotype is pathetic but I will say that stereotype kept we out of jail because when I was selling drugs and driving nice cars every cop just let me go thinking I had rich parents.

Lmao, really? "Kind and caring? Idk how you extracted that 😂. He bullsh*ttin imo.

@@AliciaM5555 do you know this man personally ?!

@@AliciaM5555there is a large number of subscribers that comment with that shit after every effin interview ie “ such an intelligent, compassionate, good looking individual” or something close . You can find it stated to nauseam after each segment…I think even the mommy rapist was such a “bright light with such potential. “

@@Thritingismysport girl bye

@@Amar1338 EXACTLY! It's actually ridiculous and disingenuous tbh. I can't fathom that level of delusion.

I am from Europe and I feel that the peer pressure to be popular at (high) school ain't that bad as in the US. From my eyeside life at the US can be quit hard if you fall out. So in a way you have be part of a group. The US Is that big so maybe this is a bigcity thing. I wish Anthony well cuz he has a bright brain and it bortherd him that did't get those brains didn't working well for him. But there is still time Anthony. Start today

Of course he did! He says he comes from a good family and childhood but he's an addict.....something went wrong here.

@@AliciaM5555 Children just don’t listen, they always think their friends know more than their parents.

@@AliciaM5555Just got caught up in trying to fit in.

Yes.

I second this

Agreed a bit racist from mark but hopefully he is made aware of this

I agree with you 100 percent. I am glad someone else noticed his racist remark.

Truth hurts 100% @clauderie

@@paulp939 what truth are u talking about. Because there is no truth to what you are saying I'm not hurt u are.

He’s being honest and we ALL know it’s true. Doesn’t make him racist. Mark has done amazing things for people. Stop being offended SJWs.

Ya he definitely did but he’s not lying either lol

@@stevesharpe3370 I think I get your point. However it is not really a question of truth / lies. It’s a matter of awareness. Mark basically said “hey, what a bummer that you were raised by black. You’re Asian and all Asian people are smart and successful. But you got adopted into a black community and look at you now… addicted to drugs while the rest of the Asians are thriving.” Sure, it’s a generalized stereotype which are often loosely rooted in truth, but this kind of rhetoric is not something that should be perpetuated. Certainly not from a man with such a large outreach who is trying to raise awareness.

@@stevesharpe3370 how would you know you some stupid and prejudice

@@stevesharpe3370 what you said definitely wasn’t true. If you grow up around different people with different backgrounds you’d know that. Mark more than likely grew up around nothing but white people. And most white people believe the typical stereotypes associated with other races. Most of us believe certain things regardless of race. It’s still stupid and majority or those stereotypes are false.

@@ChrissieMarie19 No it's all about race.

Did you cry about it?

@@John_Connor556 what the hell do you mean. No didn't cry about it Idid something about it a stupid remark.

What you mad about?

Thank you……. Some Blk people like anyone else can be some of the most conservative people you’ll ever meet. Regardless of what part of the world they come from. Definitely a stereotype!

True! ❤

Product of one’s environment, personal experiences, stats, etc.

It goes way back in history plus his parents and his parents and how they were taught as kids. Your mine becomes condition to that way of thinking unless you change as you become and adult and life experiences.

Seems like he was raised this way so sad.

Like the mac and cheese man I agree needsradio voice work

Hope you do as well.💙

I believe that theory. People that just choose similar vices are trying to kill similar pain... Thanks, Much Love ... ❤

Really so he can spend it all on drugs. Can't you see how strung out he is on F and crack.

yeah that;s what he is doing and negatively stereotyping blacks really bad. This is 2023 guy awake up we had a black president.

Happens a lot actually.

I paused when he went on about him living a black lifestyle of fun - I forgive you Mark because you do good work and I feel like lots of people are racially ignorant without being racist.

He was saying those things tongue in cheek…relax y’all 😂

@@CoLivingSingle It's instilled in his mind. I probably won't watch him anymore can't do it.

There is a big Filipino population in Virginia Beach. That’s interesting

yeah when it comes to drugs that's it. If u really listened to the interview it all about race and ethnicity.

Everybody does. Rather they admit it or not.

yes he did. that made me cringe.

I’d like to chalk it up to ignorance rather than overt, deliberate prejudice. I hope he learns from it.

That was wrong but he’s not lying either lol

@@stevesharpe3370 he is lying we had a black president

I caught that, too. He stereotyped, then after that says "It does no good to stereotype people." The irony and lack of self-awareness was very blunt, lol

It was tongue in cheek, calm down 😂🔥

Will you propose ?
