Not just regarding skin colour but also sex and sexual orientation. Any different characteristics attributed to the members of the difference groups simply due to their membership are artificial and created by expectations from society, whether it's that black teens wear baggy clothes, that homosexual men have feminine characteristics or that women shouldn't desire sex as much as men. To quote Simone de Beauvoir, "One is not born a woman, one becomes one." This apply to black people just as much.
