Based on our best data from the White Estate, Ellen G. White did not give a direct theological or moral judgment specifically on romantic or marital relationships between black men and white women. Her writings reflect the complex and racially charged context of her time, especially in the American South. She acknowledged the intense racial prejudice of her era and counseled caution and wisdom in interactions between black men and white women (and between the races generally), primarily to avoid provoking violence and hindering the work of the church. Ellen G. White advocated for separate schools and churches as a practical measure, not as an endorsement of segregation, but to prevent violent backlash and allow the church’s work to continue. Importantly, she strongly emphasized the spiritual equality of all people before God and called for the breaking down of prejudice. In summary, while Ellen G. White recognized the dangers and social realities of her time, she did not issue a direct statement for or against relationships between black men and white women. Her focus was on navigating the prejudices of her era with wisdom, while affirming the equal value of all people in God’s eyes. References: - Ellen G.
