If you are black, I have some good and bad news for you. The goods news is that the international beauty concept has changed as the black color has been included in a rigorous list as a synonym of pleasant appearance. At least, this is inferred seeing as whites are scorching themselves or getting a tan under the strong sun in all beaches around the world. Those whom are successful cannot hide their pleasure in exhibiting pride with their bodies, and those who are not cannot hide their frustration. This also is inferred seeing how Europeans shows their black partners as if they were a trophy. The bad news is that the negative image that we blacks have as a race of poverty has not changed and we have not done anything to avoid this.
It is historically known how whites deprived blacks centuries ago, but this is not an excuse for us to continue to live in deplorable conditions in this day and age. Poverty is the worse illness that exists in this world; consequently, the poor are treated as if they had a contagious disease. So, we must improve our condition of living in order to allow us to live with dignity. If we do not destroy that negative image which is the cause of discrimination, we will always be a target and victims of discrimination.
The progress of blacks in the world was evident in the sixties: revolutionary struggles which ended up with the liberation of their colonists in Africa, admission of a few hard working black students into universities in Latin America and the setting of civil rights in the United States. All of this presaged a promissory future. However, as time passed by, blacks’ situations have come diluting due to the governments’ mediocrity in Africa and the lack of opportunity in Latin America. In the United States, the professional success depends on a personal level; in other words, who works hardest achieves the highest success.
In conclusion, whites discriminate blacks racially because they are assuming that they are in a position above them; however, once they discover that for any reason the case is the contrary, they end up respecting them, for instance, when whites whom are at a high school level try to racially discriminate and disrespect a black whom has a college degree; we are in presence of a comedy in which the unique alternative is to laugh. Consequently, we should improve our life condition, if we want to change the negative image that we have racially.

This article should be read for whithe and black who are identity problems. I do no sure If white would like to have a skin black color, but I am very sure that they would like to have a suntanned skin. I believe that there is a difference between them.
