Skin bleaching can cause a very dangerous and sever AIDS-LIKE skin disease the develops just before skin cancer. This is caused because skin bleaching destroys the black/brown melanin in the skin that prevents ultraviolet rays from burning the skin and making exposed skin cells cancerous.

Whenever one takes dark skin and lightens it up, one is immediately at risk of SARCOMA where the skin turns purble and begins to break up and fall off, or begins to turn into big purple sores.

Years ago, many African governments banned skin-lightening creams in some African nations because a disease worse than AIDS was beginning to cause serious health problems. The skins of Africans who were using skin-lightening creams were breaking out --- they were catching all types of diseases because the BLACK MELANIN IN BLACK/BROWN SKIN PROTECTS THE SKIN FROM INFECTION AS WELL AS SUNBURN.

It is rather ironic that while some Black people are trying to lighten their skin (DUE TO BEING BRAINWASHED BY RACIST IDEAS), the same people telling Blacks to 'lighten' or to mix up are themselves trying to darken their skin.

When one looks at two groups of three groups of people descended from Ham (the Africoid father of Blacks, East Indians, Americsan Indians and Chinese/East Asian Mongoloids), one sees that these groups have four types of melanin in their skins that prevent aging of the skin that is a major problem for people with pale/white skins. The types of melanin are:

Black/brown/yellow melanin - Found in Africans/Black people around the world.

Black/brown melanin - found in East Indians

Brown melanin/yellow carotene (yes, found in carrots) - Found in Chinese, Japanese, Philipinos, Malays other East Asians.

Caucasian whites are primarily of Black and brown melanin (SHOCKING, ISN'T IT), the problem is whites only have about 15 percent black or brown melanin content in their skin.

Albinoids HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO MELANIN.

Who ages the quikest in these groups. Let's say it is very fairskinned whites. Why? Because they have very little melanin and are usually always trying to darken their skin without the proper protection. Gradual tanning can in fact help 'toughten' and melanize pale white skin, and help protect them from ultraviolet rays, but that takes time. In fact, that is exactly what happened to many California Whites and descendents of Dutch and English people in places like Aruba and Barbadose who have never mixed with Blacks or other races. They became darker due to gradual tanning over the centuries, however they were still too light to be protected from the sun's rays and still age quickly.

So, it is foolhardy to promote or to lighten dark skin. It is an insult and shows clearly that we all must reprogram ourselves and stop thinking like slaves. Governments and those involved in educating people must make it plain that we are all are beautiful regardless of our skin complexion. There are differences in the way people look, but we must reject this idea that because someone's skin is light, their hair straight or their eyes wide...that somehow they are better than us.

In fact, the people with light skin, straight hair and wide eyes may think we are better than them. Does an albino with the lightest skin, hair and eyes think he or she is better than a person with normal black or brown skin and who has no chance of having sever sunburn or skin cancer or other problems that comes from sun exposure? The reality is neither the very colorless albino (who are always being portrayed as evil in movies - like the movie, The Code), nor the near colorless Euros (some nationalities) who are honest can think that their skin color is a natural advantage against a world that is warming up, its ozone layer being destroyed and more ultraviolet (UV) rays are contributing to the destruction of some animals (particularly amphibians without skin protection).

Hence, where does that leave us? We find that many of us are dissatisfied with the way we look? We should thank God every day that we are darkskinned, thickboned, medium to tall height, 'round' features, straight to alamond eyes, kinky hair (hairbraiding contributed to ancient mathematics and design), and a variety of facial types. Yet, many of us are still dissatisfied, (as the program on plastic surgery clearly emphasized on TV One http://www.tvoneschedules.com also see TVOne at http://blackmalepower.proboards.com (knowledge is power).

ITS TIME TO STOP TREATING 'LIGHTSKIN' AS SOME GOD

Too many of us are comitting adolatry by this fanatical worship of lightskin. This is so pervasive that it is common on tv shows and tv stations that are supposed to be owned by Blacks or have a Black theme. One find this worship of lightskin on Bet http://www.bet.com Black Family Channel http://www.blackfamilychannel.com TV One http://www.tvoneschedules.com the Jazz Channel http://www.betjazz.com One of the most insulting worship of lightskin in a nation with lots of Blackskinned people happens to occur in India ( http://www.AZNTV.com ). In the case of India, it was there that the racism based on skin color began thousands of years ago, (see "The Black Untouchables of India," by V.T. Rajshekar and also see "A History of Racism and Terrorism, Rebellion and Overcoming," pub. by http://www.Xlibris.com ). Today, some of the population of India, particularly from Northern India are in the world's most ironic twist, hated and dispised by no other than the 'more white/caucasian people of Europe and North America. Why that is so, it is because whites thinking they invented racism cannot believe that the 'brownish' Indians of India have the nerve and odasity to look down their noses at whites and at Blacks and others.

THE SOLUTION TO SKIN COLOR RACISM

The solution is very simple. There is new generation of young people coming up. It takes about 10 to 20 years to change a dangerous trend among a people or to promote one. Today we find the hip-hop mentality and self-destruction rampant among some Blacks born after the 1985 period. This last segment of the 'Hip-Hop Generation (the first being 1955-1975 (the innovators approx. years of birth), 1975 - 1985) have been brainwashed so much by mixing and false 'integration' (which was not what our parents fought for -- they fought for economic integration, not racial miscegenation and suicide). Hence, the last generation of youth from 1985 to 2005 are lost and facing self-destruction if they do not change their mentalities.

The next generation of youth must be prepared for the coming Black World Renaissance that is already taking place. The entire paradigm of 'inclusion' integration and miscegenation/self-destruction must be stopped. Black people in America and the rest of the Americas must look inwards, build a fortress around ourselves and work as a united front to improve our conditions.

In the long run, we must return to the old religion of recognizing Blackness and the color Black as being symbolic of Godliness and mysterious power. We must also see Black skin as beautiful just as we see Black hair as beautiful.
