13393420, hold up...just what is "light skin" black? Posted by double negative, Tue Jul-14-20 02:44 PM
I don't mean what is it, but more like, what is it?
I know what Beyonce looks like, but when I looked up some of the other people I thought to myself "THATS what passing as light skin is these days?"
in my mind, you got dark brown, medium brown and light brown.
When I think of black people I think of "medium brown" or "dark brown"
These people are considered "light"?

When I think of light brown people I think of Tiny, Zendaya, Kidada & Rashida Jones, Jurnee Smollet, Megan Markle, Alicia Keys, Halsey (extremeeeee version), Maya Rudolph, Tracee Ellis Ross, Persia White, etc.
I don't get it.
