So now some people are upset because they see non-Black women with makeup that darkens their skin on Tyra Banks' America's Next Top Model?Pa-lease! How many photos of Tyra, Halle or Beyonce have been taken with makeup that is lighter than their own skin tone?
Is that "White Face"?
Real Black Face is a caricature of Blackness which exaggerates traits that are seen as different.How many Black people are really that black ?
How many have big white lips?
One instance is using skin tone as an artistic expression,
the other is using skin tone to degrade a whole race.
(Not everything involving one's perceived racial traits is "Racist".)
