I am not black; but I did a search on hyper-pigmentation in black women, as well as even skin tone. I came up with a couple of suggestions, both posted by black women on message boards that are specifically about their unique beauty needs.

One product recommended for evening out skin tone was called MaMa Lotion. Here is a link to that product: http://skincarerx.com/dark-skin-care.html

Another that was suggested was Mederma. Mederma is a treatment for scars and can be bought at Wal-Mart. I've used it before and it had good effects for me. And since they were recommending it, I suppose it works well on black skin too. Here's a link to Mederma's site: http://www.mederma.com/

And here's a good article about the best treatments for different skin types, including black skin. It discusses hyper-pigmentation and how to minimize its effects: http://www.glow.ca/Glow/GlowDocs.nsf/GlowPreview/AT-RPUB-6QKLM4?OpenDocument

Hope maybe that helps. I may not be black, but I had a friend who struggled a LOT with some of the things you're talking about. So I do know how much it can bother a person.
