  • actually it's not ...

    actually it's not really turning white there are people whiter than that even that's white also I think that black people are sun people and white people are ice people don't know why it just.. makes sense that's where each seems to originate and match with and black people don't get hurt by the sun as easy and super white people can probably take the cold better or something..

  • God gives white ...

    God gives white people more power because black people can't get sunburn it makes so much sense now...

    Blacks are exalted in the sun... so they are humbled elsewhere

    and whites are humbled in the sun... because of the sunburn... so then God makes them do better everywhere else...

  • I have had it for ...

    I have had it for 43 yrs. No skin color left at all. It does progress.People have been cruel all my life to me for lack of understanding. Now I look like an albino and people are still cruel. I admire your courage to educate through youtube. I have been experimented on by military doctors in the early 70's, which have lead to severe burns by the sun and meds. Make up and stains are temporary.We still have alot to offer the world though.We just look different. Cover up in the sun and hope 4 cure.

    It's not a disease, it's the right choice of black people turning white and they stop smelling. Too bad that only a select few want to become clean and pure.
