The Melanin Millennium : Skin Color as 21st Century International Discourse
"This volume addresses the issue of skin color in a worldwide context. A virtual visit to countries that have witnessed a hugh rise in the use of skin whitening products and facial feature surgeries aiming for a more Caucasian-like appearance will be taken into account. The book also addresses the question of whether using the laws has helped to redress injustices of skin color discrimination, or only further promoted recognition of its divisiveness among people of color and Whites. The Melanin Millennium has to do with now and the future. ... [W]hile race dominated the 20th century, the 21st century will emerge as a global community dominated by skin color and making it the melanin millennium."--Back cover
