Someone was right to call this a minstel show. This is exactly what it is. The next show given will probably be "Dark skinned skinny girls with big bootys."

Wow!! yt don't have to come in "black face" to demean us anymore, we do this all by ourselves now.

Man, I hate to see family fight. I really do. I despise colorism so much.

Encouraging it in a club event is deplorable; it's sexist and quite literally white supremacist. It's only one step removed from "white women get in free."

When is this BS going to stop? When are folk going to wake up?

Man I swear some of our minds are still in the "house". This is ridiculous that we have now turned on each other with the "paper bag" syndrome

This is pathetic for lack of worse words. And weren't some on here saying that this WASN'T a problem in the black community that favortism was shown towards "lighter skin" women??? To refresh everyone's memory it was the post where the female (don't remember her name) said she hated being dark skin because more attention was paid to lighter skin women. SMDH

But isn't this a form of racism?

believe this or not, but this is going on where i live. the dark skinned girls verses the light skinned applying for the Hooters club. i'm pretty sure yall know who the HOOTERS are. they kinda resemble the nasty waitress images wearing only the short shorts and tight shirts that show their bosoms. the light skinned girls can gets the job but not the dark skinned sistas.
