Who says that they won't discuss this in private?

I have had this conversation with many mixed race friends
who understand that it happens and deplore it, but do not
know what to do about it in reality.

Interestingly, I talked about this with a very good black
friend in the early 70s.  She was very dark and basically
did a reverse discrimination when she chose her husband
partly in reaction to the discrimination she felt from other
blacks about her skin tone.
