When it comes to skin time between Mexicans I could see the argument because a blonde blue eyed Mexican is literally a different race than a dark skinned Amerindian Mexican and is likely to have a very different culture/life experiences because of their ancestry.

Wouldn't their cultures differ because of just that, their ancestry & not because of their skin tone.

You're saying that if an indigenous Mexican person has blue hair and blue eyes, they can't really be indigenous? Woooo y'all backwards today!

Infact they're more diverse than African Americans.

This is exactly why she shouldnt have been in blackface imitating an African implying all Africans are pitch black. Her goofy ass should have known better. What black person does blackface? Made no sense esp. since she still had blonde hair in the pic. Some bronzer and a Nigerian hairstyle & outfit would have done just fine.

What are you not getting.

She didn't need to paint her face.

She has African lineage. Paying tribute to that is different than taking something completely removed from your identity and trying to claim it as your own.

This doesn't look right:


But this fits just fine

Well I know she has African heritage, but that doesn't necessarily make that her culture as she's never been involved with it. Tons of people have heritage from all kinds of different countries and cultures but that doesn't necessarily make it theirs.

If there was completely no problem with what she did there wouldn't have been a big controversy about it. I just don't understand why she felt the need to darken her skin when there was no need to do so

Nah Bey can't help ya there.

Same thing with whites. You can be an italian-american and dark but you're still considered white.

Yes in terms of ethnicity this is true since that's your culture. But racially that's not the case of course, look at the minor uproar over the new "ethnic" bachelor turning out to be a Bradley Cooper look-a-like from Venezuela.

That's not what we're talking about
It's those blackface pictures she took paying tribute to a Nigerian artist
She didn't need to paint her face

Girl. She wasn't paying tribute to any Nigerian artist.

L'Oreal explained that the makeup was actually inspired by:

African rituals during which paint is used on the face”.

It's like calling a Native American racist for taking part in their ancestors many painting rituals.

Both are meaningless terms created by ignorant Americans that I don't use or acknowledge.
