I believe this is still a major issue among African Americans because we let it defeat us!! We are still practicing slave mentalities with the divide and conquer rule!!! Some of our counterparts in white America use skin color as a way to determine their comfort level with being around minorities!! I think we still buy into their hype instead of appreciating our various shades of mocha brown, café au lait, and licorice. It is up to us in our communities to not buy into the hype. White America knows as long as we will listen to them some of us will still perpetuate the stereotype and forever be bound by our skin color.
