IT'S ALL ABOUT BLACK WOMEN'S STRUGGLES WITH SKIN TONE...!!!
A new documentary called, “Dark Girls” talks to several black women about their struggles growing up and being ostracized because of their skin color.
One girl says, “I used to wish I could wake up one day lighter. Or wash my face and think that it would change. I thought it was dirt and I tried to clean it off, but it wouldn’t come off. ”Another said, “It was so damaging. It made us feel like we weren’t wanted. That we were less than.” In a really surprising snippet, a teacher asks a young girl to look at a spectrum of girls from very light to very dark, and pick out which girl was, “smart and pretty” and which one was, “dumb and ugly.” The young lady confesses she thinks the light girl is smart and pretty“ because she’s white,” and the dark girl is dumb and ugly, “because she’s black.” Mmmm Sad ha!!.
