I told my husband that my skin is getting dark since we moved here, in this part of the island. The sun shines so bright here maybe because it's just closer to the beach and the wind is stronger, humidity is high, and the heat is directly been hitting the ground because there's no forest surrounding the area.
I'm from the Brown Race but my skin complexion is not really dark brown. I don't swim in chlorinated pool just to make my skin look pale or pinkish in color. My husband told me that my skin color is not really dark, nor its brown. I have fair skin color and so as my children who were born here in Canada and whose father is a White Canadian. Actually when my husband and I first met my friends and I noticed that my skin color is fairer than him. How could that be? Weird right? He should be whiter than me. The only reason why some humans are albino white its because it is through its gene or something hereditary, and some people are 100% white because of their parents are both white Caucasians. However, not all whites have blond hair or blue eyes. You really have to study Genetics.
I don't know why so many people are bothered and worried about skin color. Then before that color issues about PM Justin Trudeau who attended a costume party and wear the Aladdin costume and also had worn black makeup to cover his fair skin. Aladdin by the way is a comic character from Walt Disney's and Aladdin is an Arab. What do you think Arabs look like in person? Arabs have dark skin complexion, being people living in the desert land. What do you think happened to Moses and the people during the Exodus, 40 years in the wilderness, what do you think is their skin color being subjected to super hot, humid desert? You as non-colored humans will have dark colored skin because of the direct visibility to sun light. Have you gone fishing for five days out in the ocean on hot summer days? Why not try it and find out if your skin color will change. Cover your face with burka or anything that covers your face leaving your eyes and mouth uncover while you are at the desert and next thing you know your face will have pigmentation as if you had vitiligo.
WHITE skin complexion is the color of privilege. How a white person chooses another skin color could be a matter of blending in or he wants to look cool and inferior? Or just that the person has ADD.
I think there is something deeper sense within white people who disguised themselves as dark, black people. If its not for Halloween or costume party then it's about another somewhat darker side behind it. Colored people assumed it as offensive because of the case of KKK that happened in the southern part of America, somewhere in Mississippi. You just can't see the person's identity or color behind those white suits. A movie was filmed in such racial portrayal on how races are divided and analyzed by critic. It's not it's offensive or a mockery of another race but because it denotes and connotes fear.
There was once an experiment of two families: black family vs white family. What's the experiment about? The black family has to undergo changing their colors, skin color and the other white family has to darken their skin tone color. It was not a taboo experiment. Actually those families loved it and because they were paid for such transformation. So, I think it's about choice and how educated those two families who accepted something of an experiment that helped both parties and educating many families about racial colors. It's nothing to be afraid of. It's nothing sort of political but because they want to know reactions and counter-reactions. It's just for experiment and for educational and socio-economic experiment! This experiment happened long time ago and was shown on TV documentary.
Love the color of your skin because it is the identity of your RACE.
You are born with it.
