What’s with Hussein’s skin color going from dark in his childhood photographs to such a light color today?

Nothing at all unusual about that. We melanin enriched folks spend less time outdoors in our later years, so lose a lot of the suntan of our youth.

Don't tell me you didn't know that black folks get suntans too!

Especially going from Hawaii to Chicago.

You would be surprised at how many people don’t know that, even ‘melanin’ enriched folks!

My 6th grade teacher moved here from Buffalo and stayed outside the whole day for field day. She wore these big honking sunglasses and she had light area around both eyes, LOL! She hadn’t experienced our sun before.

Now me? I’m so melanin deficient that I’m almost translucent. Seriously, I could lay out in the sun all day for three straight months and you might could see a faint tan line that would disappear in two days. I’m sure you really needed to know all that, huh? LOL
