He said i want a light skinned girl…
He said i want a light skinned girl
Cos she's prettier…
More better than a dark skinned girl…
A light skinned girl is closer to whiteness…
Is it that shallow?
Sounds like a slavemaster talkin points?
He wants a lighter skinned girl…
She’s still black
Even if she’s mixed…
Why is black community
Carryin white man’s ideas?
Those colorism ideas of
What’s beautiful
What’s not…
It’s the sickest way of thinkin
And I don’t like how dark skinned girls are treated….
They didn’t do anythin
They exist
And some black people don't like them…
They don’t like dark skinned boys either…
What’s worse is that dark skin developed
Lowest self esteem
Self hate…
It’s been passed down from colonizers to
Endless generations….
I’m still hearin a
Black man said
I want a light skinned girl…
Light skinned girl is a dream girl
To marry
To love
Society celebrates light skinned all the time
And watch dark skinned girls bleached their skin
To become beautiful
To capture attention….
I blame oppression
I blame propaganda
I blame slavery
Cos look at those poor melaninated minds
Not appreciatin dark skinned people
I still don’t understand
The phase of you’re too pretty for a dark skinned girl…
What the fuck is that?
How can it be mad disrespectful?
Let me tell you somethin
Black people are gorgeous…
Ok?
Light skin
Dark skin
We is some beautiful people
White people are wickedly jealous
Of us….
All that colorism bull shit came
From slaveowners
Who divided us
It’s the Willie Lynch shit…..
We have hauled it down in our dna
To teach our babies how to hate themselves
Without knowin the history behind that
Certain abuse…
We should teach them how to love
Themselves take much pride of
Their own melanin…
When he said
I want a light skinned girl
As his wife
He sounds like a
Slavemaster
No disrespect
But he seems to hate
Dark skinned…
First of all
Ain’t nothin wrong with dark chocolate
Why does he gotta hate dark chocolate?
Is he the night sky, too?
The sun gave him filter of stars
He cannot hate himself
He cannot hate his mama
Nor his grandma
He came from the darkest womb
I would like to say
Blackness is every race’s favorite color
But we ain’t monolith
We ain’t a trend
We ain’t a hashtag
Nor a statement
We got soul
And for him to say That
He wants no dark skinned woman
Cos he doesn’t like himself….
If he didn’t have a colorism
Pastin in his heart
Then he loves black women
Doesn’t matter if she’s light skinned
Or dark skinned
As long as she’s a good black woma…
White supremacy gave birth to colorism…
Not us
We subconsciously adapted to it
Unfortunately…
