A couple months ago, I noticed some bullshit about Light skin vs. Dark skin.... huh??? Are these people serious??? We were putting ourselves against each other.... because the color of our skin.... hmmmmm, this sounds oddly familiar.... I think I might have heard something about it in history class..... oh yeah, I think its called racism... but technically, its not because it wasn't one race discriminating against another. It was one race discriminating against... ITSELF!!!!! I must say, we have to be the only group of people that make it harder for ourselves to progress... Why are we always mad about racism and can't get over slavery, when we do the shit to ourselves....
Lets think about it on a bigger scale.... I saw the BS on facebook... but lets face it... This generation is going to go out in the world and carry on the same beliefs..... I hate just thinking about it.... I go in for an interview, highly qualified and with a perfect resume. I think the interview goes great.... But what if I don't get hired... not because I'm a woman.... not because I'm a black Hispanic... Not because of my class level..... But because I'm too light?!?!?! So is this what we're going to resort to in the future... I'm not going to hire anyone who's skin is darker than mine.. and you aren't going to hire anyone lighter than you....Sounds like we're taking steps backwards instead of forward.....
Maybe it would've been better if God just made us all color-blind........
