You are being totally dishonest here. You have been hostile and over obsessively defensive over this issue of Colorism. I am being PERSISTENT in presenting Colorism in the face of denials and distortions about it.

I am not concerned about what you, rasi, have a problem with. Just do as you usually do, try to prove what I am saying is wrong. It was not dark-skinned Blacks who set up the brown paper bag test etc. So history IS on my side.

"you can't prove that historically the majority of light skin blacks have emulated whites-so you really cant make this staement and be taken seriously in my opinion." (sic)

I said, "Light-skinned blacks emulated Whites to the detriment of dark-skinned Blacks." History bears witness that it was light-skinned Blacks who set up the brown paper bag test to exclude dark-skinned Blacks from many quarters. The fact that it was supported by many light-skinned Blacks proves my point. Similarly, a few Whites set up institutions of Racism against Blacks, while most Whites simply went along because it benefitted them. Colorism followed a similar trend though not as extreme as with Racism.

Examine the history of DC for a better picture of how Colorism was played out.

Many dark-skinned Blacks did/do emulate many destructive practices of Whites, including the false ideas that were/are perpetuated about Blackness.
