Doesn't matter how pretty you are, or how much money you have, you'll always be "ghetto" to these people, simply because of the shade of your skin.

I always assumed that's why Michael Jackson went to such lengths to change his skin color and endure the plastic surgery to change the shape of his nose.

No, Michael was responding to his abusive father's criticism of his nose and his skin shade.

Of course, Joe is also dark-skinned, but he doesn't think he is.

There are few things more stupid than colorism. One brown-skinned person calling another brown-skinned person "too brown" or "not brown enough" is asinine.
