What? Who actually looks at obviously black girls and thinks "other?" That's stupid. If anyone is ever made out to be some kind of alternate or "other," it's girls like this, simply because they are lighter skinned and people want to ignorantly question what they are or critique (lessen, or invalidate) their "level" of blackness when they're included...often in an underhanded way to separate them so that they can be put on a higher plane than the "average" black girl. Just like you just did when you decided it was necessary to point her being "mixed" after someone remarked that it would be nice to see another black girl in the arena. You're not slick. As usual, you are part of the problem.
