Study: lighter-skinned black and Hispanic people look smarter to white people

[desertrain10]

For the people who keep talking about how bad race mixing is so bad, even if you have a point what you need to do is to talk about the main cause of race mixing: black women.

That is all.

What?

You mean people's approval of others reflects how closely those people look like them? You don't say.

Yea

So this is all about familiarity

We naturally assume people who look different than us are not as smart and/or criminal

Our enviorment, the media plays no role in exacerbating these fears, shaping our views of others

It's just the ways things have always been, right?

I'm being sarcastic by the way

Doesn't quite explain why even blks have been shown to have a subconscious bias against darker skinned blks

Or, to a lesser extent, why subjects recall a blk person with whom they shared a positive experience with being lighter than what they actually were

im not sure why you're befuddled on colorism because it all stems from slavery and the access to whiteness & it's many privileges/benefits.

Colorism was around before slavery

But yea your right in regards to the colorism and light skinned privedge we see today in America and many other countries, it all stems from slavery

I was being sarcastic
