CARNATY or the difficulty of flesh color

Black people against white people! What has happened to the colorfulness of our flesh? Are we still able to look at each other carefully? Are we being compelled, in everyday life, to take a stand for or against a specific color? Why the color discrimination imposed by highly educated ‘black people’ and sanctioned by highly educated ‘white people’ is just as much a form of racism.
