#i was in canada for 4 months (during the winter) and naturally came back pale as hell
#i live in the caribbean which means year round sunshine and i LOVE being outside
#so when i came back home in the summer i was outside a lot and naturally my skin tanned
#i think this is the darkest ive ever been? one of my friends told me this is the most tanned shes ever seen me
#this is fine with me
#personally ive never been more in love with my own skin tone
#but my MOTHER.
#see one thing about jamaicans,a lot of them are colorist like it pays the bills
#especislly the older generations
#and my mother will not stop saying that my complexion is 'ruined' and i need to go back to canada to get white again
#like. lady. i already feel like shit because of my acne???
#not only that but my sister is darker than both of us... how do you think that makes her feel???
#its really shitty
#and its crazy bc i saw my gp earlier today (shes nigerian) and she was talking ab the racism she faced in texas
