We live in a funny society where circumstances and trends change rapidly. For a long time, it has been accepted as cool when black people tune their skin to become lighter but it seems the trend is dying with the way real dark skinned people are excelling in various fields.
Sometime ago, someone like Lupita Nyong'O would have been called names but now she is highly celebrated. One of my friend(Kenyan girl with natural light skinned) even complained that white people asked her why she doesn't look like Nyong'o since she is from Africa? I guess that is life for you,,,,lets appreciate what we have and not wait for others to see the beauty we carry inside.
