I feel awful saying what your uncle has said. I said it quite often too, not realizing what I am saying. I guess it’s because socially/historically our skin tone and physique were not embraced, but used or “copied”. I wish things were reversed so we could develop higher esteem. All of us aren’t like that. I come from a proud background of family who are not victim minded and it rubs off on me often. I love the article though! Definitely astute observations!
