lightskin vs darkskin

[carpedeum]

@ Carpe & Special KDo you think slavery was used to destabilize the black race, because the whites were jealous of our unity and mental strengths?

check the thread in L&L.. for an indepth answer. a short non controversial answer is that history shows that conquerors will do whatever it takes to keep the conquered in their place so they remain there as long as is needed.

Your right shatterstar.When the slave masters used to favour the light skinned blacks over the dark skinned ones, It did bridged that gap of the unity we once had amongst us. It made dark skin blacks envy light skin blacks in a way of wanting to be accepted more to the white community. It makes me sad to think that there are still people who think being dark is ugly and light is beautiful. We are one ffs. And i'm actually disgusted by the way these supposed "strong black women" are verbally attacking each other because of the tone of their skin.

it was done on purpose. its part of the "willie lynch" . sadly, it succeeded

its funny how he said it will control them for 300 years and its truly is .BEG U MAN READ THIS -ITS LONG BUT ITS NECESSARY TBH IF UR TOO LAZY - READ THE PART IN RED This speech was delivered by Willie Lynch on the bank of the James River in the colony of Virginia in 1712. Lynch was a British slave owner in the West Indies. He was invited to the colony of Virginia in 1712 to teach his methods to slave owners there. The term “lynching” is derived from his last name.

wowread about half it, sum interesting stuffbut how will this apply to those of african descent that were not slaves, or even indians that have issues of colorismit maybe due to colonialism

i think it's vital that the young black kids are educated about pre-slavery , slavery itself brings the feeble & powerless mentality to blacks.

black people love to argue about the most stupid d*ckhead things skin complexion, neighbourhood, land of orgin, small island big island.swear blacks must be the easiest race to divide

I know you arent a serious character who says a lot of things you dont believe for whatever reason but a lot of people have kinda mirrored this opinion. Everyone does that. English, Scotland, Wales etc. North/South Divide... Sweden, Denmark and Norway have similar things.Cast/complexion is debated even more furiously in Latin countries and South East (?) Asia like Pakistan, Sri Lanka and India. Are those people black? Them people are straight medievil with their opinions on darker skinned people. At least we still think darker skinned are human beings. I refer to my quote that caused a lot of controversy about black people. This is why I say blacks need to mix socially, cos most problems are only black problems to black people who dont know other peoples problems. They then develop this nonesense talk of "black people this" and "black people that".Black people who always put each other down like every other race has it on lock are stoop-ed.And anyway, those who prefer light-skinned are undercover white girl lovers.disclaimer: that isnt an essay, nor is it directly related to the vid, more a response to what has been said during the thread

I bet I can show you more evidence as to why I'm right than you can to prove me wrong

are undercover white girl lovers... im trying to see the link between liking a light skinned girl and liking a white girl... erm, its quite vague... there is no barrier for somebody liking a dark skinned girl to a light skinned girl to a white girl...it is just and merely i believe preference.. me personally, liking a particular skin colour and actually wifey'in a particular skin colour are 2 different things completelybut i await ur documentation from wherever source u have...

[Sozes]

Hmmm. So if you preferred a particular skin colour, and most of your links tend to be that colour, would you settle for a wife thats less pleasing to the eyes???

[Guest Safe_Haven]

^^ that to me?nope

[Shatterstar]

It's no secret slaves were taught to hold white plp in high regard & this is another thing that has been passed down to the current generation even if we don't realise it. I see hair permed straight to look like white plps - who convinced black women & Didier Drogba that tight & curly was a bad thing? Weave to give hair length like white plp/asians et cetera.So because lighties are closer to white darkskined plp sub-consciously place them on a pedestal & because they are closer to white, white plp don't mind them as much.This is why its acceptable to say things like "lighties are out of fashion" or "blacker the berry.." because in society it's ok to make fun out of things or criticise plp who seem to be favoured. Im actually lightskin myself but not mixed as such, my peoples from my mums side are from St Elizabeth in JA where everyone seems to be lightskined (001 will know the history).

[Sozes]

KK. But what did you mean by that?

it is just and merely i believe preference.. me personally, liking a particular skin colour and actually wifey'in a particular skin colour are 2 different things completely

Obviously I know what 'liking' means but I took it as kinda preferring. What did you mean?

[The Somalian]

Of course I know its not a black problem its a human trait, yes we see here how people cuss off the welsh, scotish, irish, northeners, londoners, country bumpkins. Its a problem all over the world like India for instance where in some parts they deal with that shade stuff lighter you are looked upon better darker skin people live in squaller forced to eat rats. Then yes age is a big split also we see it in this country talking about teenage yobs. But in places like Brazil and equador there are death squads who go out to kill children who they see as a sort of vermin. We are all diffrent which makes us all unquie but all them diffrences are the cause at allot of our social problems throughout the world.

lol did you basically say "I was chatting sh*t before"?And yeah, Willie Lynch is meant to be fake, but to me, just because Willie Lynch didnt write/say it doesnt mean it isnt true

[The Somalian]

latinos dont wear as much weave as black women. latino men marry more lationo women than black men marry black women.asian people do not wear weave..or not as much anyways. and they marry each other far more than black peopel marry each other. so when people where talking im sure they took all this into account before singling it out as a black problem. because thats just what it is... part of a bigger problem.and P.s. the lynch letter is not fake. it may have been edited with stuff added but the first part of the letter is the excact letter as far as i know. you'd have to provide more than just saying its fake..but confirmation that it is. cos all the letetr states is It discribes the rationale and the results of Anglo Saxon's ideas and methods of insuring the master/slave relationship.
