'It’s important for us to not only condemn the idea that lighter skin is better, but to understand that using skin-whitening products can have lasting and damaging health effects,' writes Ilhan on her fight against the multibillion-dollar industry:

, a nonprofit that aims to end skin-lightening practices, has worked on this issue for decades, pushing for state and federal reform. Because of activists like her, who have vocalized the importance of this issue, we have made meaningful strides on the state and federal levels. In Minnesota, we appropriated funds through the Minnesota Department of Health for a grant program to raise awareness of the health effects of these products.

IlhanMN Ilhan LMAO when the leftists can only attack people for race and skin color, they claim to be against these things, but hate and racism is the only thing that they can create. No jobs or money for the people of America, no secure borders, no science is good enough now since Joe is in🧟

IlhanMN Ilhan Yes self mutilation and killing of unborn children is ok? What happened to the 'It's my body' stuff?

Martina Ilhan I’m white. I used this product for some sun damage. Why does this have to be about race.

IlhanMN Ilhan Tìm bạn tình hẹn hò. Có giúp đỡ kinh tế sau mỗi lần gặp. Tìm bạn nữ không quá 35 tuổi. Single mom hay sinh viên khó khăn ib zalo mình Vui lòng PM để trao đổi SDT

IlhanMN Ilhan Not a single word from her about the idiot woman using Gorilla Glue in her hair........but this? israhirsi IlhanMN

IlhanMN Ilhan Great piece, Ilhan. Thank you for being a leader!

IlhanMN Ilhan Ilhan saves money by putting a bag over her face

Ilhan I mean Americans have more permanent fix for darker skin people.. Especially brown people living on top of oil....

IlhanMN Ilhan Don't forget about all the mixed couple ads you see that are adding to the extinction of the Black race. Mixed couple have a child that is 1/2 black, who has a child that is even less black, until only 2% black, if that. Eventually no more black.

IlhanMN Ilhan Now if a white person said: ' It’s important for us to not only condemn the idea that DARKER skin is better, but to understand that using skin- DARKNING products can have lasting and damaging health effects,' Ilhan Omar would call that person a racist.

IlhanMN Ilhan And tanning is extremely dangerous. I know you will mention that .

Ilhan It must get exhausting being so self-righteous all the time

IlhanMN Ilhan Is this satire? Please say yes

Ilhan Let others do as they wish. I think your head covering is unhealthy and filthy but its your choice

IlhanMN Ilhan Who wants to put mercury on their faces?

IlhanMN Ilhan The dislike for her has nothing to do with skin color. You know some people did something

Ilhan Does this bitch do anything that actually makes a difference? Jesus.

IlhanMN Ilhan Why do you have such a problem with white people? If you hate white people so badly, why don't you move back to your own country and ruin their lives?

Ilhan What about artificial tanning products? Still okay to darken?

IlhanMN Ilhan Yeah. Teeth whitening has bern a real scourge as well. Tell people how to live. If we all bred, than light skin would be the norm. Are you having kids? Go ahead and answer, racist

Ilhan

IlhanMN Ilhan Oh look at you pretending women's health comes before beauty standards.. Oh Bless you.. 😒

IlhanMN Ilhan It's also important for us to not only condemn the idea that darker skin is better, but to ban self tanners, SAME THING Who the Fcuk lightens their skin I was raised with predominately black folks and not once knew anyone who lightened their skin, is this something new?

IlhanMN Ilhan is when you just got through decrying that African-Americans always knew that White-Supremacy was a threat; Suspicious of those who act surprised at 01/06/2021 : watching Democrats manufacture grievances, and confirm what Muslims been knowing about 'Secularism' and Pantheism.

IlhanMN Ilhan Then why were you so against orange people? 😂

IlhanMN Ilhan All while giving her hubby millions during her campaign run. Hypocrite to the MAX

IlhanMN Ilhan Low IQ.

IlhanMN Ilhan If people want to change the hue of their skin what business is it of yours? “Condemning” people for personal choices is right in your wheelhouse isn’t it?

IlhanMN Ilhan Is this a joke?

IlhanMN Ilhan What if someone wants to do that? You are then getting in the way of their right to choose. So do we only have a right to choose when we’re killing a baby or do we have it all the time? what is that saying? 🤔 makeitmakesense

IlhanMN Ilhan Beautiful & smart!

IlhanMN Ilhan How about focusing on getting people their 2k which was promised and helping ensure people get vaccinated? Those should be the priorities!

IlhanMN Ilhan I want to scream, My God !every time I see that ragged dark face under that diaper. Not only should we condemn “white” but the wearing of rags on head. With that dark face, really does look like a full diaper

IlhanMN Ilhan Are you the same company that wrote that fucked up article about cannibalism?

Martina Ilhan I've got a very dumb question, but I am asking because I don't understand. Why would you use skin whitening products It sounds like it would be very bad for your skin

IlhanMN Ilhan I didn’t know people still did that

IlhanMN Ilhan Tanning beds and tanning oil should be next on the chop block. Such an exclusionary service for only white people, leaving billions of people left out of the economic enterprise. Its racist and exclusionary.

IlhanMN Ilhan My lord, is she going to try to mitigate climate change to change the color of SNOW ? Do skin darkening products have the same damaging health effects? Or as always this is just another racist rant from a racist that hates white people, MY LORD !!!

IlhanMN Ilhan 👆🏻👆🏿👆🏻👆🏿👆🏻👆🏿👆🏻👆🏿👆🏻

IlhanMN Ilhan

IlhanMN Ilhan So true. Good work.

IlhanMN Ilhan NOW that's racism at its best! Do you honestly think we want you looking like us? Dark Chocolate belongs 2 places, Valentine's gifts, and Africa. If ya all turn white we'll have to start asking for birth certificates

IlhanMN Ilhan And so does transitioning to a different sex in your teen years but yet you promote that crap

IlhanMN Ilhan Like cigarettes, just tax the shit out of the whitening products and stop trying to control us with your socialist agenda.

IlhanMN Ilhan talk about anything and everything Meanwhile - Over 471,000 (and counting) Americans dead and STILL not one single mention about Healthcare for All of US Good Morning Taxpayers

Ilhan Colorism is much harder to identify than racism but is a huge problem that needs to be addressed.

IlhanMN Ilhan And white people use tanning beds to get the beautiful brown tone.

IlhanMN Ilhan In elementary school there was a saying that went like this: if you're white you're right, if you're yellow you're mellow, if you're brown stick around, if you're black get back!

IlhanMN Ilhan Skin color does not matter you racists.

Ilhan So far you are doing great job making sure that White people are horrible and guilty, and fragile... and whatever.

Ilhan Omar is as racist as any white person on this planet

Ilhan Are their any skin darkening products available
