Actually my HS history teacher told me I had a euro-centric look and it pissed me off. Ever since that day, I've been on a campaign to prove AA and African people can come with all kinds of features and in all different shades.
I don't want my attractiveness attributed to "europeans". I'm first generation African thru and thru.
People don't realize the kind of ignorant **** they say to reaffirm "white is right".

But the media only focuses on one type of black
When she said it I started to realize it.
Ethiopians do generally have a different look from your average African American,.
