" I'm living in a distorted world where the amount of melanin in your skin determines the respect you should receive. "
I'm really, really, really astonished at how f*cked up the world is at the moment. Your skin is just skin! It doesn't decide your worth. What really matters is what is inside.
Have we stooped so low as to degrade people who just has an ounce more of melanin in their bodies?
