Dark Skin Black Women is a stupid term. Light Skinned Black Women is an OXYMORON!! It does not exist. They are not Black period but are a variety of white person. I have always loved my dark skin. Always. And it is sad that you didn't and still don't and envy people who the sun burns and fur on their head gets lice.
Years ago when me and another fan tried to meet her .. she made fun of my medical condition and was laughing at the way I walk no knowing my medical condition..
This is me as a filipino american 😢 I was born in the US to a Filipino mom and American dad. My mom speaks two languages besides english (Tagalog and bisaya) but my dad told her to only speak english to me so I wouldnt be “confused” like what!!!??? The majority of the world is bilingual or more and speak each fine or to a rather fluent level, and my mom is trilingual so why did they decide not to teach me😭😭😭😭 I always feel so outcasted at filipino family gatherings, and never feel enough.
I don't date dark skinned women because they're not attractive. Lighter skin/white women are more attractive than dark skinned women don't get mad at the truth men of all races of find lighter skin women more attractive you can talk about it all you want but at the end of the day you can complain about about it and accept it or understand and accept it yhe choice is up to you.
I hate hate hate tv and films that primarily focus on racism and black trauma. Out of my entire life traumatic racist incidents have probly been 10% of my entire life so majy other good and sometimes bad things happen in my day to day life. MAKE A MOVIE ABOUT THAT! Thank you for your take sis so tired of the "TP" 👀. I been black my whole life dont think im finna stop anytime soon so make me something that actually relates to my day to day life the other 90% of my life 😂
Isn’t it great that Peele made “Nope” where it features black characters in situations that doesn’t have anything to do with racism! Sucks that there was another season of this type of show but because of opinions like these we’re getting better representation slowly but surely.
Why is everyone hating on a show that WASN’T made for them. It’s for the other side to learn and FEEL what the black experience is. We have generational trauma whether you want to acknowledge it or not and that needs to be talked about. Everyone else gets to. How can you say you don’t speak for all Black people but you somehow know a small minority of Black people like this while the majority are tired of see this type of stuff. How you know that? I hope they keep making movies and tv show like this until others understand us FULLY and things change. We’ve been told for so long to get over it and move on. That can only be done with discussion and reconciliation, both of which have never been done properly. Jewish people and Natives Indians never stop telling their stories of what has happened to their people but we for some reason should stay quiet about what has happened to us, AND IS STILL HAPPENING DAILY. It’s like there is some sort of embarrassment that is suppose to go along with wanting to talk about it. Black people are no longer just gangbangers and other terrible stereotypes in movies and tv shows. We now have more power than ever to control the narrative and telling these stories from OUR point of view with OUR own words is the type of thing our ancestors wished they could. 🙌🏾🙌🏾 MORE!!!!
Guys, changing back to natural isn't this deep. Just leave your hair, cream it and be making all back. Not box braids, be installing wigs, just all back. You're hair will grow. My hair took 7 months to transition back to natural hair🤭. Yes, trim it but very very little or hair will be so short when it's back to natural. If you are patient and not doing too much it will transition back as fast as possible, maybe even faster that mine. GOOD LUCK GUYS🥰🙂😀🤗
I'm yet to see this TV show yet .I have seen a couple of trailers ....but Im hoping that the black family featured gets their own back on those racist neighbors tho .... !!! PLEASE no spoilers 😉 I'm a white male from uk and have never been racist ... .... I don't understand why people are ?? We are all human ..(not that should make a difference) I have no preference on nationality race or colour ... I have lots of friends black ,white ,and Asian, far easterns ...and they have treated me fine ...I just cannot fathom what TF goes through a complete racists mind ...!!!
Im the same shade as zendeya so let’s not say that only“dark skins“ hate their skin color and hair and also feel too dark . Stop victimizing yourself just bc you’re insecure . And all the other stuff like bro the amount of dark black peoples in media in is crazy and wayy more than lightskins . Bring lightskin is a trend not all of them have bouncy curls or green eyes
2024. Well, now we have the "Good Times" remake and "Magical Negro". Now THATS PROGRESS! 😂 "Them" was underrated unfortunately, heavily critiqued, by many including "us".
I seriously think that writers get off on being able to put blatant racism on screen because it gives them an opportunity to live out there own desires in some from or fashion. For example Dan Schneider writing sexualized jokes in children's show
Okay, I thought I was just being white. I watched the whole season and....it was like Black Trauma p*rn. The actors were fantastic, the cinematography was amazing, oooo and the set/landscape!! It did show the violence white women have preppetuated against the Black community so goddamn well. The child actress that played Gracie! She was soooo good, I hope she has a safe and long career. but I don't like that she actually had to see the dolls. Like. Mmm. That was...why?
the brown paper bag test was literally just for 1 party by black people for black people. Can we stop acting like it was actually used in white society?
My forehead has been my reason why i unwantedly relaxed my hair cus it was able to lay flat n cover my forehead but now i do wanna try NATURAL despite my insecurities with my long forehead
I think the TV show was extremely good and very very deep… As black American its a little unsettling to watch, but it opens up some serious issues in a black community. That nobody wants to talk about. As a black horror, the TV show did its job. It was more psychological than anything else.
But you want true to life event mix with fiction because in actuality this is what “THEM” is about. He’s actually letting younger generation know how South Central LA came about at one point it was an all Caucasian community very racist And how far we came but yet still deal with the same struggles. In the 1930s KKKs were chased out of Inglewood by black and brown citizens. So before yall start complaining what you don’t want to see start researching what was
But why can't us pretty girls, mixed race girls, lightskin girls talk about our experiences being bullied by darkskin girls???? Why is it when we tell our stories we get called colourist. Lets not act like there aren't darkskin girls that are bitter and jealous 🤦🏾♀️
Exactly, im brownskin and have gotten bullied by mostly darkskin girls growing up it's so sad, im trying to figure out why, because it doesn't matter what your skin tone is anyone can be beautiful and anyone can be ugly, those types of darkskin women are bitter, jealous and miserable
I think black people think about white people too much and should focus on fixing their own community. Yall dont even realize if you ignore racism it wont work anymore. I feel like now more than ever black people blame white people when theres the least amount of racism now more than ever. If you pick on someone and you get a reaction, wont you keep poking them? For some reason you wanna tell white people their wrong when youre not perfect, and instead of being outraged over everything if you didnt give it any air time, people wouldnt profit off of.

What privilege do light skins get? We get preference to white people? I’d rather fit in with my own kind. Why do you want whites and others to accept you do much. I don’t get it
This is so relatable it’s unreal. My dad is greek but never taught us the language. We still grew up with the culture because of my grandparents who cooked for us and live in Greece for half of the year every year. We visited their home almost every summer and I really feel at home in Greece. But now that I am more grown up I have noticed that the greek local people of course view us as “the tourists” because all of my family (even my mom bc she studied it at university!) speaks greek except for us siblings. And it does hurt to not be able to communicate with my greek family and the greek people in general. I do not feel like a tourist at all whenever I am there, but I know that I am being seen as one. And if I am fully honest, it does hurt to know that my dad actively chose to not share that part of his identity and OUR identity with us. I will always have a small identity crisis I think, but hopefully someday I can fully accept the fact that I am allowed to feel greek or part-greek without having the fear of someone discrediting your identity.
Them is nothing like US. How uneducated do you have to b to make the comparison. The only similarity is the titles. THEM IS DEEPROOTED. Each family member struggles with something individually in them. Us is about revenge. You’re a hater. You need to be embarrassed
The series " Them" was great, it shows the truth of what happened in the 50s which everyone should be aware of , blacks or whites. Black people were definitely Traumatised living in that kind of environment. If black people wants movie on order, please create your own and invest in your own. If you don't put the money don't criticise.
I’m convinced that black people lack critical thinking skills. Colorism will never be fixed nor will racism. People thrive on a system of oppression. I’ll be glad when the human race becomes extinct. No more privilege for anyone 😂😂😂
I feel so sad for POC (let’s be real it’s mostly a special sect of black women who were raised on twitter) that just can NOT view politics or social issues through ANY lens but race,and not just race,the binary white VS black lense,so simple minded,a conversation that begins and ends with hopelessness and victimhood. If you wanna argue Lana is messy for name dropping that’s valid,to insinuate let alone flat out say it comes from a place of racism….all I can say is find a charity or a church you can volunteer at to help with the insane self centered complex y’all have,good luck.
