I really grew up thinking Michael Jackson bleached his skin because he “didn’t want to be Black”… whole time that narrative was loud AND wrong. 🤦🏽‍♀️ It was Vitiligo.
Vitiligo is a chronic, non-contagious autoimmune skin disorder characterized by the destruction of melanocytes, resulting in white, pigment-free patches on the skin, hair, or mucous membranes

Why did they have us believing that for years?? Y’all heard the same thing growing up or was it just me? 👀
