"As a black woman in America, Amber Ruffin, who is a writer and
performer on Late Night with Seth Meyers, is used to dealing with her
share of bias. Her husband Jan wasn’t. Jan is white—and Dutch. They
first started dating while they both lived in Amsterdam, and when they
moved stateside in 2011, Ruffin realized they had a number of unpleasant
conversations about race in America in their future. In an essay for
Glamour, Ruffin describes what it was like to open her husband’s eyes to
the discrimination she faces back home."
