Have we not learned anything at all?!

I thought we moved beyond the one-drop rule. I thought we moved beyond the paper bag test. I thought we moved beyond having combs at the doors of a church. #teamlightskin #teamdarkskin Don’t you realize that this was a system used to divide, conquer and destroy an entire people? It’s bad enough when other people judge us by the tints and shades of our skin But, it even worse we do it to ourselves.
