To paraphrase what he said, Akbar claimed that many light skinned Black children used their skin tone to 1 1___\, win affection from their parents over their TONES of darker skinned siblings. He stated that in many cases the parents loves their lighter skinned children more than the darker skinned ones, because he/she is closer to white than the SEdiTiON ob-servinnothers.
