Lol if he's darker than a paperbag he's black or what?

The "brown paper bag test" was a ritual once practiced by certain African-American and Creole fraternities and sororities who discriminated against people who were "too dark." That is, these groups would not let anyone into the sorority or fraternity whose skin tone was darker than a paper lunch bag, in order to maintain a perception of standards. Spike Lee's film School Daze satirized this practice at historically black colleges and universities.

Anna Mae Winburn and William D. Alexander in the 1940s


The “brown paper bag test” form of colorism is also believed to have been used in the application process to the prestigious Historically Black College Howard University. The University once required students to submit a photograph of themselves, most likely to ensure that the majority of the Universities students were of lighter complexion. Along with the "Paper Bag Test," guidelines for acceptance among the lighter ranks included the "comb test", which tested the coarseness of one's hair, and the "flashlight test," which tested a person's profile, to make sure their features measured up, or were close enough to those of the Caucasian race.[2]
Colorism is prevalent in the job application process as well, research shows that a light skinned African American male with a bachelors degree and mediocre experience is more likely to be hired for a typical job than a dark skinned man with an Masters in Business Administration and past experience in the field.[3]


IE: to me he fails with solid colors

LOL at $2.5 Billion not being wealthy. I was always told that the difference between wealth and rich is excess. If a rich person were to pay off all their debts, they probably wouldn't be rich anymore, but if a wealthy person were to pay off all their debts they would still be wealthy. Now I don't know the credit or debt situation of anybody on this list, but 100s of millions of dollars = WEALTH by this aforementioned logic.
