Had a good friend who is mixed race (black and white) explain to me the culture of dark skin Vs light skin in the black community. It was extremely sad. He admitted that whites treat him much better over all, but he was basically not light enough for the whites and not dark enough for the blacks. We would workout together and black people he knew at our gym would joke about him non stop.
Similar story, my buddy was a security guard and his boss was a Gambian. Guy was black as night apparently.
It was a civil war between making fun of his accent and "black ass" and him berating his American Black subordinates for being white chocolate or something lol.
