In Response To: Re: Skin tone more important for African Americans (mimi)

Greetings Sis Mimi. Welcome.

Your message has thrown some light onto this discussion and I hope you don't mind me using it as an example. I don't mean any disrespect to you or what you have written directly.

Hotep.

Forgive me if I'm wrong - but I think Sis Mimi's response is exactly the result of the misleading title of the research that seshatasefekht was referring to.

Sis Mimi's is of course right in what she says about it being terrible that we black people still may judge eachother based on skin tone....

.....BUT.....

...this particular research was looking at how white people judge black people based on their skin tone.
