White men fuck over the entire world and then get offended when you remind them.

I wanted to look up where the origins of tanning for beauty come from
and, surprise, it’s stems from idolizing a Nazi sympathizer and fetishsizing a black woman.

So let’s be clear: Tanning is a WEALTH STATUS SYMBOL for white women.
While skin bleaching is done specifically to lighten the dark skin, which in turn is a SURE FIRE SOCIAL MOBILITY APPARATUS since LIGHT SKINNED POC GET TREATED BETTER INTERNATIONALLY.
White feminists can kiss my brown ass if they think that these two things are the same on ANY level.

The people who were teenagers during the Civil Rights Movement are still alive, y’all. Their lives were affected by blatant, government-sanctioned racism. It astounds me that people act like it was thousands of years ago.
yo i’m tearing up a little bit
This is beautiful. So beautiful.
