But it always goes back to the idea that you can beat something inherent out of someone. If they thought that it was possible with blackness, they would have blackness conversion camps too.
Technically it is, my cousin’s mom used to bite his left hand till it bled everytime he used it, now he’s ambidextrous but mostly uses his right hand to write, she tried to get my mother to do the same with me but I was lucky she isn’t religious and shot that down immediately
That is actually really cool though, are they able to make skin gratfs that way without actually having to remove flesh? Or is it for a different purpose?
I just watched a video of that process, it’s really incredible. I don’t know much about how the skin works, does the dermis just regrow under the epidermis? I imagine it sort of repairs inwards from the edges of the wound using the epidermis as support, is that correct?
I’m really glad people like you are doing out there. I imagine you get used to it, but I feel squeamish just looking at the graft, not to mention the injury that required it!
Only because it isn’t forced on them. Push these racist idiots hard enough and they may get the idea for ‘color conversion therapy’. Or more people of color will go for it again to try and avoid racism.
I keep thinking back to the Mark Twain quote, ‘As happy as a black mother whose baby has come out white’, and how incredibly sad of a statement that is. And how little things have changed since Mark Twain’s time.
You’d think by now it wouldn’t matter if a child was born light or dark, but it still does, because of a small group of horrible people, and a wider group who don’t care as long as they get privileges, and so just keep telling everyone ‘not to rock the boat’.

They used to think it was possible with left-handedness.

😲 Biting your child’s hand‽ I’ve never heard of that before.
perhaps we can practice on the bigots?
Many of them are practicing on themselves daily.

Some black people bleach their skin due to social pressures.
That’s hardly the same thing.
