Charles Barkley Put on White Makeup To Mock Sammy Sosa

Charles Barkley put on white makeup to poke fun at Sammy Sosa who has bleached his skin white. During last night's NBA on TNT, former NBA player Charles Barkley sat as a makeup artist applied white cosmetics to his face. Kenny Smith then shouted to Barkley, "Say it loud!" Charles Barkley responded, "I'm black and I'm proud." Charles Barkley then took over the deep end and posed an silly question to Smith, "If I become white, am I allowed to eat chicken and hamhocks?"

As a result of European global domination, using skin cream to make one's skin appear closer in tone to that of Caucasians is a very common practice in Latino and Black communities across the world.

According to obsessedwithsports.com, "Currently, in the Dominican Republic there is a great deal of racism that occurs between “dark skinned” Dominicans and “light skinned” Dominicans. This explains why Sammy suggests that “he is not a racist” when he spoke to the media following his public appearance."
