I have a good question, IMO.
I was at the hair shop the other day (yes, guuurl I had to get a touch up. okaaay!?!) and this woman comes in. She was obviously mixed, but could play up her non-black ethnicity if she wanted to. As soon as she came in, the other girls, who weren't as light mind you, started hatin'.
"Unh, look at her. Oh you know she tryna be black today..."
"She is sooo played. Fake-ass Alicia Keys bitch."
...and it was to my understanding that they didn't even know her.
So my question is,
Why is it that if a light-skinned sista is around darker skinned sistas they wanna hate on a sista?
