CULTURE APPRECIATION OR SUDDEN REALISATION

   This is whats going on in our world, "spray tans". Spray tans to protect the skin from the sun's harsh rays but not a lot of people are digging what's going on here . I have a lot to say bout this but first ...details; This spray tan produced by Sweden/ Stockholm based Emma Patissier Alm. It can be distributed to a lot of parts in the united states and is on the market .
   I'd like to put myself in her shoes. When she was thinking of a spray tan that people would totally  love ,she was prolly like "hmmm blacks have dark skin and i don't see them getting sun burnt so lets make a tan mimicking their colour" 
    This seems  rather irrational when i try to reason with the critics but from her side maybe or maybe not she had a clear mindset when making this, ignorant of the fact that it'll certainly stir up controversy,she may have "just" wanted a tan  or did she come to a sudden realisation that blacks have obviously stronger epidermis and naturally protective skin?

The produced tan comes in different colours hence different colour shades inside ....yeah they literally sell black skin in a can.


Few people who've also seen this made reference to infamous quote made by Paul Mooney , a comedian, actor and social critic amongst other things who said "Everybody wunna b a nigga but nobody wunna be a nigga " , some others strongly believe it's yet another example of white women appropriating women of colour while others feel the reason why they wouldn't think of burning their skin black( as blacks are peeling their's white) or thinking of making permanent tans is that they know they wouldn't be accepted in the racist community they created.
With solid racism in the community and it's grip on the mentality of  individuals , and black people especially in danger, people complaining or criticising this have every right to and more no less entitled to their opinions.
So the impression given to  the public is that White's can be Black but Blacks cant be black??! I guess its 50:50 as Blacks out there turning white by peeling the top layer of their skin (again as i reason they have a reason to do so) as living in different foreign countries has had a strong grip on them since they've been living, managing or hiding and suffering from the perils of being black..how sad..but haaa once a black,always a black.


Two sides to a coin but one thing is certain, applying a spray tan obvs containing chemicals(which manufacturers will claim is harmless buh we know lowkey is harmful) and lying in the sun, getting the tan contents soaked up in your skin doesn't sound healthy to me...People out there getting some type of cancer...well there's a lot of melanin to go around...Carry on Tanning then..
