Scientists Enable Changing Skin Color




If this works for masks, it will eliminate concerns about traveling through neighborhoods which are restricted to only one human color. Some foods already make it possible to change one's skin color. This will facilitate easier self identification of skin color too. 

[From article]
While a chameleon’s natural state is leaf-mimicking camouflage, it will change color when they’re threatened, annoyed, or want to strut their stuff. Thanks to some research published last month in Nature Communications, future gadgets, prosthetics, and clothing might be able to do the same.

He explains that this is the first time that the three features of touch-sensitivity, stretchability, and color changing have been combined.

Ryerson University (Toronto, Canada) Students Demonize White People Based on Skin Color




[From article]
The "Racialised Students' Collective" of Ryerson University is warning "whites/non-racialised people" that their "race and ethnicity is taking up space and silencing others." The Social Memo was the first site to report on the campaign.
[. . .]
According to the Racialised Student Collective, simply being white is oppressive to people, even if you do not speak or act in a racist manner. They judge you poorly based completely on the color of your skin and regardless of your actions.

Black Woman Fired For Not Being Black Enough




Historically black people discriminated amongst themselves. Light skinned blacks were thought superior to darker black people. Is this a form of reverse discrimination within the black community?

[From article]
A biracial woman has won her case against her former employer – the Black Educators Association – after human rights officials deemed she had been bullied by co-workers for being “not really black enough” to do her job.
Rachel Brothers was hired by the Black Educators Association in 2006 and almost immediately came under fire from subordinate Catherine Collier who, according to the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission, made it clear she thought Brothers was too young and too light-skinned to represent the race-based organization to the community, The Chronicle Herald reports.
Other employees joined in on the bullying, with one telling Brothers she should “go work for whitey,” MailOnline.com reports.
[. . .]
the Nova Scotia Human Rights Commission found no evidence of any wrongdoing on Brothers’ part and concluded she had been let go because of her too-light skin color, MailOnline.com reports.
[. . .]
Murray’s commission awarded Brothers nearly $11,000 in damages for injury to her “dignity and self-worth.”

Liberals Project Hate Onto Their Critics.


"Obama must have been light beige through much of the summer of 2008 (when he held a slight point lead over McCain), then become a bit browner after the Republican convention (when McCain led by a bit), then lightened again at the financial meltdown in mid-September, and become moon-like in his paleness by Election Day, when he carved out a seven-point win. From then, he must have turned pearl-white by his Inauguration, at which point he was approved of even by people who voted against him and basked in favorable ratings of nearly 70 percent. Then, in late spring, he once more grew darker, a trend that continues."
