The advice still applies.

Not a messageboard, not Wikipedia, but a book...a book!

Your thesis revolved around this topic and you weren't able to find answers?

This topic is silly.

It would apply If I hadnt read books on the topic of colorism but I have and this specific question has not been answered as I stated before. I wasnt aware that asking a question just to hear how others feel about would be an issue.

I always wonder how much the equipment affected the appearance of skin tone in these older photographs. That's really just a random declaration.

Me too, sometimes. I think subconsciously I am really thinking about who could pass and who couldn't, based on features in addition to skin color.

There was an exhibit at the Museum of American History in DC on the Scurlock's, who if I remember correctly were supposed to be pioneers in color accuracy in photos, but this was around the 1930's I believe so I dont know how accurate colors were prior to

It was your phrasing of the question that could be perceived to be an issue. Also, folks have told you to do a search, because the question has been discussed over and over in the ten years that this board has existed. If you are not finding anything, use terms that are more or less precise. All that failing, search the larger internet, there is so much material about this topic out there.

Of course, you could probably just Read a book!

You just probably aren't going to find a lot of folk here willing to rehash this discussion again for your benefit. :shrugs:

No it didnt revolve around this topic...colorism and education was a minor part of the paper and bglo an even smaller part...if you had read my initial question you would see what the topic of the paper was...
funny how its silly but you chose to entertain it
