It was especially controversial as Simone was a civil rights figure whose songs addressed the struggles of colorism black people face within the community


So, does colorism explain why there is so much “black on black” crime?

You've most likely seen her before but just didn't know the name. Ever seen Avatar, Guardian of the Galaxy 1-2, Infinity War/End Game, recent Star Trek movies, Pirates of the Caribbean? She was the hot black, blue, or green chick.

Hasn't it been said before that some lighter skinned blacks look down at darker skinned blacks?
