"The White people in this country also made it so that a privileged few of us could have skin and hair that looked like theirs. If the slave masters in this country never impregnated African women, we'd all have dirty looking, pitch black skin! Light skinned black women are much more pleasant to look at than their dark skinned counterparts, and they're also more intelligent, more talented, and more likely to be successful." - excert from his page.
Excuse my language : But, this is pure, unadultured garbage!!!
Now back to polite conversation.
Not to upset my lighter skinned sisters, (I am not all that dark myself), but I have met many "pretty" light skinned sisters, as I have met many "pretty" dark skinned sisters. (Pretty is as Pretty does). Just as I know many highly intelligent dark and light skinned people. The color of your skin is not a determining factor of whether you will be more pleasant to look at or more successful. If I was pitch black, I would still be pleasant to behold, b/c of the manner in which I carry myself, and I would definitely be successful, b/c that's all I know how to be.
I know his page is titled "Free Speech.com" But, come on, some things are better off left to the private confines of your own mind.
