Here are four very dark skinned ladies who are not you’re typical everyday “blackenicious” girls that you would see walking down the streets of Manhattan on a daily basis. However, if you live in or have been to countries like Senegal and the Central African Republic, you will immediately notice that very, VERY dark skinned people are the norm and majority!
Most of them usually tall and slim in physique… So going back to the question – do you think these ladies are too dark? If you are from one to the two countries mentioned above (and obviously other African countries), then the answer might be no as it’s normal to see dark skinned people. However, if you are from other parts of the world, I can imagine you staring at them as this isn’t what you are used to seeing. Hell… even the average lighter toned black persons gets the occassional side-eyed looks and stares so one can only imagine a much darker person! 
This is where educating oneself is very important. Learning that there are many different shades of chocolate in the world allows one to not be judgemental or ignorant. Even black people need to be educated as those who suffer from racial prejudice are usually blacks from other blacks (we will save that topic for another day). But as the saying goes… the darker the berry the sweeter the juice so there you go! 👩🏿👦🏿🖤
