My friend, who is white, used to be in a mostly black and Hispanic school and was bullied for her skin color. Racism goes both ways.

Oh dear sweet girl! I know it's hard when you're young but never, ever let anyone make you feel anything but a beautiful woman because of the shade of your skin. You are stunning!

She's smashing & smart ! Her eyes are mesmerizing !

She is beautiful and so are the clothes but those fake lashes at just 10 are a little too much...

I don't understand people. We all know kids will be kids, and peer pressure can be brutal...but this is why it is so important that parents not only tell them to be respectful, but set a good example by being respectful themselves.

Beautiful girl! With an amazing fashion/style.

It looks like she has already has the best support you could ask for in her family. beautiful girl and beautiful family. I can say my tid bit on bullying but its not worth spoiling the strength of this family. good job.

You go girl!!!

God she is so beautiful <3

YES! I'm so glad of this girl and her idea of making a clothesline. Honestly, we all stem from Africa anyways, so we're all very distant-distant-distant-distantly related in a sort.

OMG her clothes are soo pretty i dont get why she is getting bullied

Holy God I can't imagine this girl being bullied. She is incredibly beautiful. She's also clearly got a head for business and a supportive family. I guess we all have to go through things and it's how you react to adversity that sets you apart from the commoners. Well, that and being exceptionally beautiful doesn't hurt one little bit. Good on her for elevating herself.

SOO CUTE! And I think that we shouldn't care about others, just be yourself! Great inspiration! THX

She is stunningly gorgeous!!! Go girl!

I'm really glad she's exposing this kind of bullying and doing something to counter it.

Where can I get the shirt?

Oml I swear, she is a blessing from God. She is the cutest most strong and independent 10 year old girl I have ever seen.

Shes going to end up with one of the most sexiest light skinned men. One with green eyes and so exotic looking. Her star has begun to shine in only a decade! It can happen like that these days.

I am not "getting" it- she is not unusually dark. Frankly if she were - what does that even mean? She is a human color. Maybe if she were green or blue it might be unusual. Regardless, she is absolutely beautiful and I am sure has a career in modeling ahead of her. Go little one! Take the world by storm! ♥

Wow! She has beautiful dark brown skin! I think the other kids were jealous of how beautiful her skin color is.

This makes me wanna cry, it shows that we should judge only action, not any skin tone.... If there is any of those people, I don't care, I will love them from a distance and live by gods rules. In His eyes we are beautiful and important...

This girl is stunning and smart.

some Vietnamese friends said that my complexion was black although I had yellow skin. I didnt care. I just thought that their skins were white, their eyes and their brains were white too because they cant discriminate between black color and yellow color.

Damn! That's really sad. I hope she knows that she's really beautiful!

I think that the teacher made an innocent mistake. Its very difficult to know what is politically correct these days. Black people don't want to be called brown, they want to be called black. Maybe the teacher was just trying to be politically correct by giving her a black crayon?

Absolutely beautiful young lady!

Beautiful

Stunning!

She is a beautiful young girl. I hope she won't care about others opinion. anymoroe

She is gorgeous.

"bullied for her dark skin" Whaaaat? Why this s****y correctness? She's black and nothing's wrong with it. I am not pale, I'm white. She's black. End of story.

She's beautiful.

This little one eyelashes though.... shes beautiful

I really don't get how skin color can be a reason someone to be bullied! Me, personally, I am so white, pale and my skin is too thin almost transparent, over sensitive to sun and all unpleasant climate effects - cold, wind, dusty air. And I find nothing good in it. I admire dark-skinned people. They look so pretty to me!

Sure her skin is brown and not black. So what? Does everybody here honestly think the teacher was purposely trying to send her a message? If so, what would that message be? A darker shade of crayon is neither positive nor negative. The teacher just handed out a poor choice of crayon relative to her real skin color. Big dead. Seriously people, get a grip. Plus, some black people do have skin that's almost black so it's not like the crayon would never be used for a black person. I used to live right next to a community where most of the people were way closer to jet black than brown. This story makes me wonder what the other "bullying" was like if this is what was chosen as the example. This girl looks like she's going to be gorgeous. Life treats the attractive woman quite well so this, (according to the only information I have on the matter, which is article), is just clickbait. She'll be fine. Sheesh.
