The way I feel . . .
Honestly I think us Black people, well most of us can be the most prejudice people in the world. . . We claim we want respect from other cultures, but yet we always categorize each other. This "Lightskin/Darkskin", "You're not Black enough", "You act white" crap has to stop. Having an afro or natural does not mean you can talk down to someone who gets relaxers. Just because someone speaks with intelligence & wants an education does not make them "white", Being "light skinned" with long hair does not make you superior to someone with darker skin and kinky hair. Fact is, if it were 1850 we would all be "nigg*rs" regardless of income, skin color, hair or heritage. We would all still be owned by someone, we all still would've had to work for the "white man" who breed us to this "lighter" or "darker" tone that we know today. How come we were all the same back then, but now it's like we are "races" within a race?
