Bleeching is disgusting
Well I yes I would agree if this was happening in a country that has a white/light skin majority but this is west Africa. The only contact they have with white society is through Hollywood movies and even that's being replaced by nollywood. It's a black society with a black elite class and black role models. I'm perplexed really. I would understand if it was India because the elite are disproportionately light skinned aryans and there's a cast system that discriminate against dark skinned tribes but this Nigeria, where 99 percent of people are blackYes were appalled by all of this but really the only solution is to ridicule people who do this. At the same time we need honestly and whole heartedly ask ourselves why people are doing this. Colorism in the black community is real and leaves deep scars. We have all cracked dark jokes when we were younger but do not realize the hidden pain it caused
That stat is bullshyt
That and simply low self esteemColonialism brehs.
The reason is white supremacy and c00ns. Pay a couple c00ns to use a product throw money behind marketing the product to black people and capitalize on the self hatred whites have put in us. Definitely have to educate the babies on colorism as a sickness among black peopleYes were appalled by all of this but really the only solution is to ridicule people who do this.
