Yes, it's still sad but true about this issue amongst African Americans that just won't go way. I do think it has gotten a little better but I know for a fact that some of our people are still colorstruck. It all started in slavery to be used as a division tool to break up the unity of our people in the first place (you know the house/field thing). I feel that if we as African Americans keep in dialogue about this issue by communicating (not hating)and actually listened, we can to heal the wounds left from such silliness that has tried to break our spirits as a race. I'm glad to see that magazines such as Ebony and this forum are challenging us to address this issue which clearly still exists. Black is beautiful and I'm talking about all the hues that make up our race. Peace.
And OOOOO-OP! TO MY SORORS OF DST!
