Oriental Angel," a televised talent show. Angry Internet posters called her a "black chimpanzee" and worse. One called for all blacks in China to be deported.
I was very shocked by those two parts of that article, but not surprised. Global hatred against black skin, and I thought "only in America". Wow, how wrong I was, since reading these latest stories from Sammy Sosa to Obama's visit in China. The comment about "Chinese don't like Africans", well, they need to do some deep research and learn that the birth place of humans is Africa, whether they like it or not, and whether our skin, hair texture, facial features are different. I find that for those Chinese that hate the way Black people look, i find it ironic that many of them, not all of course, would result in having surgery to have their eyes straightened to look "caucasian", and sell tons of bleaching products to "whiten" their skin. What does it say about those that do? In my opinion it says that they dislike their natural features and skin, yet they talk about Blacks in a derogatory way. All this global hatred against black skin comes from a sick and ignorant mentality. Someone also posted this same article in the P&R forum for discussion. [Edited 11/15/09 10:15am] I was lurking in here until I read THAT. I was dating an asian guy, and DO NOT GET ME STARTED on Gay asian men and this crazy ass and often unreciprocated attraction to white men. | |

I am sure there might be a whole racial theory written about cases like that(and have, Frantz Fanon's "Black Skins White Masks" for one) but it is intriguing that he treats skin bleaching as a purely aesthetic procedure, or so he claims. Let's face it, bleach creams are out there so they are used by somebody.
It makes me wonder whether there will be a time when stuff like that will be treated with such lightness as spray on tan or hair removal.

Fury said: I really, really can't believe how much his appearance has been altered. Personally (and to be honest), I think the results are attractive. If I saw this guy and didn't know he was supposed to be "Sammy Sosa", I would think he was good-looking. But when I look for "Sammy Sosa" in THIS guy... I just don't see him. Look at the hair!!! Sammy used to have a Nappy Fro!!! LOL. Plus those steroids, a few years, and some extra weight have kicked-in handsomely, but this is just not Sammy Sosa. But he looks happy, like when a pre-op transvestite finally makes "the cut" and wears her first "little black dress" in public, legitimately. HE'S FREE!!! God bless you Sammy, but I don't think I'm such a huge fan anymore. You obviously think Black is Wack. (...nice shoes btw). I wonder if he can still dance?   | |

Obviously, he's not trying to look White. He's trying to look Jewish.
Or is Jewish considered white. I still think I prefer him with his darker skin color and tighter curls. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Still it's nice to know, when our bodies wear out, we can get another -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- |
