Yo, let me demonstrate to you that not all black people look alike hueheuh

 

Colorful black people. Yeah I know, I was amazed when I found out too, but I'm not talking about colorful skin, if you thought so. I've only experienced black people with well ... black everything, in my entire life! But I soon found out that there actually are black people who are born with blue, green and hazel eyes. And not just the eyes, some of them born with blonde and orange afros!

 

There are black Albinos, who are - just like other albinos, born without skinpigments, their skin is white, in fact whiter than caucasians. Many people don't know it, but they are also very unfortunate in life, especially in Africa where their body parts are considered giving some kind of powers if they're added to a potion or something.

 

Lightskinned. Most of the "real" (you'll understand pretty soon why) lightskinned black people are born in Northern Europe, America or somewhere other than just hot...so they do look lighter, perhaps more like mixed people - Mulattos compared to the darkskinned who are born in Africa or another place where the climate suits our skin type better.

 

As I already mentioned there are real lightskinned black people, but there are also bleached ones! I'm not really against the ones who bleach themselves the fact that I don't consider them being racist to their own race or so, like many other darkskinned people do. Because in my opinion it is the same way when white people sunbath, I mean it maay look better on them, but both of the situations gives a high risk of skincancer and they know it but still continue because they feel the needs to stay lightskinned/brown. But I wouldn't put myself into that kind of risk just to feel prettier or because people may prefer lightskinned over darkskinned.

 

Then there are black people who become white because of a disease called vitiligo, Michael Jackson for example, had that disease in his young age which he later smoothed out with makeup. Although many people seem to think that he actually betrayed his blackness and went through a plastic surgery, just because he did it with his nose - the most failed nosejob I've ever seen. But just as Albinos, people who have vitiligo tend to be very sensitive to the sun, because of their lack of skinpigment of course.

 

The more you know, the less racism! ;)
