Actor Derek Luke has been married to Sophia Adella Luke since 1998 and they have two children. For years, Derek has been criticized for marrying outside his race and recently he decided to address the issue. Below is what he wrote on instagram...
"I never usually entertain the opinions of others because everyone is entitled to their own opinion. (Positive or Negative). But
we're in the year of 2015 & when should it be a "problem" to date
outside of your race? Why is that an issue again? I'm doing the unusual
& going through my comments & the comments I see about my wife
being another race is bugging me out. Who one chooses to date is that persons business.
Instead
of focusing on (Happiness) & (pure Love) for some reason some folks
are still focused on (Color). Doesn't make any sense to me. But I guess
that's the ignorance of others. My wife may not be Black but she is mine. And she's mine with a heart of gold. People are so quick to judge but can't even distinguish the difference of another's race. Sophia Luke is Hispanic. She's not white, she's not black, she's not Chinese, she's Hispanic. And she's mine!!

Na wa o... so what happened to the freedom of marrying anybody you love regardless of his or her race?
Marrying outside is race is even the best.. it's good.. let the lord teach him The rest... it's well with you. Eph 5:25-26
Tell them bro. Ignorance is a disease without cure
Pple can never mind their business
Black Americans might claim racism at every turn but they are the most racist people in the world! Looking down on on blacks who date outside their race and calling them names, like love is defined by skin colour! I think that is myopic and they need to change their mindset
Ok
hey sweet hot choclate ... married since 1998 is a great accomplishment please stay happy and ignore the noise makers
Blacks are the real racists!! If pple complained of a White man marrying a black Woman we no go hear word..
Ur choice, Ur headache not mine.

WTF is wrong with people???!!! This amazing husband and wife are three years away from being married for TWENTY YEARS! 20? ILI NA IBUA! TWENTY YEARS! IN HOLLYWOOD! They should be celebrated. Monuments should be erected in their honor! Talk shows should be keeling over to host them! Publishing houses should be fighting over who gets them to write books on HOW TO MAKE MARRIAGES WORK (THESE DAYS IN HOLLYWOOD)! I cannot believe humans. Kai. I even had to go on his wiki page to make sure it wasn't a typo from Linda (like she typed ...photo shoo so fart... this morning on Kim's story. lol). Sorry to digress. Seriously, black people are the world's greatest racists. I'm sorry but, it's true. Is there any event or business in this world named "for white people"? But we have colored people business like BLACK Entertainment Television, etc. Some might argue and say there used to be "white only" tags and lbels back in the day but, aren't we trying to get past that? Shouldn't we have gone past that by now? It hurts, i know but, that is what makes us the bigger person(s). For what it's worth, i think the Americans have overcompensated by making a BLACK man the President. If we don't like the way we are treated there, why don't we come home then? Trace your roots and COME HOME! Sadly, only few people like Jidenna know where they really come from. If you go to an aunt's house and she maltreats you, you no go go back to your mama and papa house ni? Hian. Too much unneccessary things making headlines and becoming topical issues in the world these days. Take a breather ya'll. It is not that deep!

He shouldn't be upset when a black man isn't interested in his daughters, nieces etc because they aren't white enough. It is important to have your best interest at heart because no other race will have it for you. You don't see famous/rich Asians, Italians, Iranians, Indians, latinas marrying out of their race. Those are all some of the most successful races in the world. When they do marry outside it is a rarity. Blacks are constantly being disrespected and looked down upon for many reasons, one being that the lack of confidence they have in themselves to marry another person of the same race. It is a double standard a white man marries a black woman and he is viewed as adventurous, a black man is viewed as lacking self esteem and self worth. That is why whites always insult blacks knowing there are no repercussions I mean how can a race that cant even see the beauty in each other band together to right together. Unu should keep proving the white man right, that regardless of your accomplishments they are still superior.
Words. Haters will never stop.
Nice one brov...
After all it's about you, it was never about them
And these are the same people who will complain about racism or racist comments when directed at them! Reminds me of the hater chic on Sonia Morales Instagram!
