Why should my appearance matter?


Dark skins vs. Light skins?

Isn't that a great topic to speak about?

I'm am a dark skinned woman telling you skin completion doesn't matter

It's like this generation has gone back in time

The time when black people were oppressed for being black

Why can't we all just accept each other for who we are?
