When jokes end up speaking the truth about mixed Blacks who know they are Black but others see them as not or a different race unto their own, we are doing what we were programmed to do from impulses, including generations of ignorance and slavery--it's called epigenetics.
Not all very light-skinned Blacks have a caucasian (white) parent, grandparent, great-grandparent, great, great... and so on. I'm one of them. Keep in mind that we only have been legally removed from chattel slavery in the USA 159 years ago--that's not long ago.
The light bleaching of our skin carries over to our children in many cases even when our partner is dark-skinned. Many of us were born and raised Black with very light skin and are the by-product of many rapes during slavery.
Some Black/Afrikan enslaved families were raped more and shared in the same horrific treatment as dark-skinned Black/Afrikan brothers and sisters but there's no argument that darker-skinned Blacks/Afrikans had it worst during chattel slavery.
But once upon a time my dark-skinned Indigenous Black mothers/fathers in the land now called America (from Virginia, South/North Carolina) and my dark-skinned Afrikan mothers/fathers from West Afrika who mixed (both enslaved) like most of my brothers and sisters' enslaved ancestors, received the same brutal treatment of chattel slavery. This is what we all have in common no matter how light the skin color who are descendants of slavery.
