Other - Cultures & Groups - September 2006

My late great-grandma used to say this to me when i was little. Everytime me and my brother would go outside to play she would always say this. I didn't understand what that meant when I was little but now I understand it.I used to have very fair skin when I was younger and I turned darker when i was 9. It broke my heart how my grandma used to make remarks about my changing complexion. My skin is reddish-brown. Another thing was my hair. I was born with wavy hair that was very long and down my back. And this girl had cut off my hair and told me that "I was whitewashed" Now my hair is to my shoulders and I'm going nautral.Have any other blacks, natvie americans, latinos, or Asians dealt with this kind of intra-racsim?

I know this stems from way back when but today I still see alot of light skined people that think because of that they are better than darker blacks. Even i slavery they got to stay in the house while we went into the fields. Not all act this way but some do.

Why do people judge? There are alot of people that don't give others a chance they just see what you look like then make up there mind about you! Me & some of my friends seem to be subject to this alot just because we dress a little bit differently & some of us have a few peircings or tattoos! Why do people have to be so narrow minded were a good bunch of people but sometimes we can get treated like dirt!

It's all great for Blacks to have Black Pride, "It's a Black thing, you wouldn't understand", Black entertainment channels & "urban" radio stations, but yet if any Caucasians are proud of who they are (NOT being white supremacists, but just having pride about whatever white background they have) they are labeled racists. Why do these double standards exist?

I have been told on numerous occaisions that white/caucasion people are more friendlier to black people with a lighter skin complexion than most black people.

One white guy once told me that he finds lighter skinned blacks easier to look at than their darker skinned counterparts.

I know within the black community it is believed that light skin blacks are more prefferred by white people because it is believed that whites cant stand anything that is too dark.

I just wanted to know if it is true.
who would you choose to be your friend? halle berry or naomi campbell. Will smith or Denzel washington

As one would imagine that the burka would prevent the smell from escaping thus lingering for longer in the vicinity of the offender ensuring that it dosnt move freely and is not so easily shared with the surrounding people.as it would if she was wearing a miniskirt or a grey hound as we call them in the UK as they are closer to the hare,
