In Response To: Re: Colorism (selassielive) (selassielive)

An addendum to your points:

We were divided into light- and dark- skin by babylon, with the light ones getting better opportunities. That is fine, that was how it was, but now that we are struggling to overcome babylon, are we not stronger by holding the hands of our light conscious idrens, than rejecting them (as sell-outs) leaving them no option but to try to find acceptance in babylon, thus becoming sell-outs. I sometimes find that light-skinned blacks are the most insecure, due to not knowing where they fit in.

P.S. It always brings me joy to see positive reasonings that do not attack each other, Ises idrens.

Love And Peace,
Jah Melku
