lightskinned vs darkskinned
this is no new phenomenon.. been goin on since slavery..
my great great grandmother.. who was born a slave couldnt stand my mom cause she was lightskinned with green eyes.. treated her like ? ..
that was in the 60s and 70s.. -
No, cuz we're not in a position to have it mean anything.
Racism only matters when decision makers are racist. joe Blow down the street hating ? doesn't affect me. The chief of police being racist is gonna be a problem. -

this man knows his history -
interesting but to be honest i never really noticed any beef between light and dark as a kid. it obviously happened during the olden days, but i'm talking specifically the 90's-00's.

lightskin vs darkskin wouldn't that = color struck?

I don't know about the 'new' racists. That suggests that the old racists are gone. Lol. But are we just as racist as everyone else? Yes.

I was once told i didnt know ? about a certain topic because i was white. Truth is i DID know.

Ah, you're one of those faux-intellectuals who think that you can't be racist without power. And that blacks don't have power. Gotcha. You're right; we can't be racists and we don't have the power. -
in school the lightskinned person always got the girl/guy.if you wasnt light something wasnt right
we were taught self hatred from the start but now we're carrying on the tradition to our offsprings
everyday on tv,somebody chooses the lightskinned chick over the lightskinned chick or some guy chooses a sista who looks latina over the chick who looks like bria myles -
its the craccas fault

im racist as ? ...................but i love black people......light or dark

you showing your age right now
But the term racism didn't really come to light in america until the early 20s with groups like the KKK whos main goal was to keep blacks out of political office in the south. Thats true racism, prejudice + power. I don't know how you don't understand this, you must of went to a public school.
oh you were born in ATL that explains it my bad man
But I'm saying...I already said you were right though, boss. You got it. -
That would be prejudice not racism
Racism=Prejudice + Power -
^^? stay making up these ? definitions for "racism".That would be prejudice not racism
Racism=Prejudice + Power
But yeh, people of the same race discriminating against each other based on color is "colorism", not racism. -

wateva...............? these crackas -
Lol nah.I can't call the police to come hang some white dude because he whistled at a black woman. Gftoh with this ? question.

You clearly don't have a grasp of what the word racist or 'race' means.
