Sofia Richie shows some serious skin in the new issue of Complex and dishes on her skin tone, which can confuse those who don’t know her.
“I’m very light, so some people don’t really know that I’m black,” the aspiring model, 18, told Complex magazine. “I’ve been in situations where people will say something kind of racist and I’ll step in and they’ll be like, ‘Oh, well, you’re light.’ That still doesn’t cut it, buddy. It’s 2016 — you better get your s—t together before you get slapped out here.”
Richie is the youngest daughter of singer Lionel Richie and younger sister of Nicole Richie. She rose to fame over the summer when she was linked to Justin Bieber, but the pair reportedly split less than a month later.
Um ok. You dieing your hair blonde doesn't help your suffrage. MUST be so difficult and inconvenient to be confused as a white woman. You definitely did not intend to go for a white woman aesthetic. Like who says this? Cringe

This archaic nonsense where you're either black or white is a mess too. If her biological father is Lionel Richie then she should consider herself biracial not black or white. The biracial erasure is real, biracials need to stand up for their race.

I edited my post before your comment. And I agree people who are mixed shouldn't have to choose one race or another.
She's white or mixed at most.
