It's all a moot discussion anyways, I mean clearly both white and black people have evolved into something completely different than what we used to be. It's not like there are "bragging rights" for the particular end of the skin tone spectrum that your color most closely falls on.
I don't think any of our "forefathers" foresaw a future where we collect Jordans and play Candy Crush.
Look at black people who identify with Obama simply because his skin is a bit darker. All of his baby pics got him kicking with a bunch of old white folks, surfing in Hawaii and eating caviar and shit but Jamal from the hood thinks Obama is Black Jeebus on Earf.
Perspective stays fucked up these days.
