It was a German who influenced Hitler and Nazi Party who conjured up race in 1797 that leads to racism and the Holocaust. Without getting into the history of race which I've included in many of my posts, the reason is simple. The sun and geography determines how much protective pigment each one of us has in out DNA, and also much of our appearance.
Here's the skinny. And inside information is important for understanding any complex issue. It takes 20,000 years for our ancestors to live either close to or far from the equator to make our completion dark or light. This does not mean a summer tan that is not part of our DNA. When I was growing up religious influenced government made laws forbidding dark skinned people to marry with "whites." But ever since President Lindon Johnson's civil rights laws, marriages are now permitted between people of a all varieties of complexion. As a result new generations have a more neutral tone that in a short amount of time will all be one shade.
Then what will people call themselves with everyone looking the same? We are all one people. And we know that it was the sun of man that decides how much protective pigment we all have. Was that any reason to lynch and murder people with dark skin? Ironical there's an old adage, "Tall, dark and handsome."
Let's all lighten up and have respect for dark complexioned people. So-called "white" people are not supreme, such as the religious extremist KKK, They act ignorantly because they are delusional and uneducated in the facts of life.
