It is definitely an issue and it is related to the issue of blackface. For instance, people like Reggae star Vybz Kartel who is so darn angry that some people are blasting him for whitening his skin. He looks insecure, ugly, and utterly ridiculous with his new skin.
(Not directed at BluPhire) One thing to understand is that the issue with blackface has to do with patterns and group dynamics. Some people are stuck on individual opinions and behaviors instead of seeing how it results in group and structural dynamics.
