The divide between dark-skinned and light-skinned women continues … so thinks one R&B singer, Tank. Yesterday, the recording artist, who was arrested last week after refusing to surrender his license during a routine traffic stop, followed up the poor decision by igniting a Twitter debate where he “unknowingly” threw shade at dark-skinned women, in a effort to come to the defense of his girlfriend Zena Foster.
He tweeted…
I have an honest question. What do dark skinned women have against light skinned women?.. Aren’t we all black at the end of the day??

You should check the comments on my page when I post my light skinned girlfriend and maybe you’ll understand the frustration! #FactsOnly — Tank (@TheRealTank) October 9, 2014

As expected, Tank’s line of questioning hit a nerve with his female following. Check out how a few of his Twitter fans responded below…
