Girl Get Your Swirl On:
‘Swirling’ Co-Author Christelyn Karazin Guides Readers to and Through Interracial Love

by Jenee Darden

When I first read heard BeyondBlackWhite.com blogger Christelyn Karazin was co-writing a book about interracial dating, I thought, “What more needs to be said?” Between the media’s odd fascination with black women’s dating lives, to black women empowerment bloggers encouraging sistas to expand their dating pool, I didn’t think there was more to add to the convo. Either you swirl (which means date interracially) or you don’t. But Christelyn  and her “Swirling” co-author Janice Littlejohn aren’t trying to sway readers to try “something new”. This book is a guide for those black women who are ready to jump into the interracial dating pool or have already found their Marco Polo-Chung-Pakowski.

To hear my incoherent jabber and Jenee’s poise, click here.

I did this interview after my bedtime, so I’m pretty proud that I remained conscious. I also reveal how this book is waaaay different from what anything anyone has ever done on the subject of interracial relationships thus far.

Follow Christelyn on Instagram and Twitter, and subscribe to our YouTube channel. And if you want to be a little more about this online dating thing, InterracialDatingCentral is the official dating site for this blog.
