Skin Bleaching

For millions of black women skin bleaching has become acceptable, because of racism and issues of self identity skin bleaching has become prolific please help me to make this practice unacceptable and if you see a woman with bleached skin let her know the perils!!! 
Containing the active ingredients hydroquinone and/or mercury, bleaching creams have been linked with the disfiguring condition ochronosis, marked by the darkening and thickening of the skin, as well as the appearance of tiny dome-shaped bumps and greyish-brown spots, according to the US FDA which proposed a ban on skin-lightening creams without a prescription back in 2006. In the UK, the amount of hydroquinone allowed in retail skin-lightening creams has been limited to just 2% but demand means there is a ready unofficial market for stronger potions. Ironically, skin-lightening creams are often a misnomer, since after discontinuing use, normal sun exposure can make you darker than before. Women can then become psychologically addicted to creams and over years destroy not just their complexions, but also their health and self-esteem.
