The reply about the eurocentric standards of beauty are right on the mark. Also, keep in mind that this shows that Blacks see and describe each other accurately as individuals, while whites generally see Blacks as simply a monolithic Black. The ability to see the differences in color and features is something white s have to learn. This ‘pecking order’ of color has been in all American media – even Black Cinema. see htpp://astro.temple.edu/public_html/cc.htm
