re: #12 The Ghost of a Flea

I have a question; well, actually it more like wondering out loud as I chew on all this:

1.) Does/did the same prejudice exist in societies where there is/was no contact with fair skinned people?

2.) If darker skin tones are related to outdoor manual labor, does the prejudice still exist in nomadic societies where everyone is outdoors all the time?

3.) If it reflects the preferences of hegemons, what happened in societies where the hegemons had the same general physical appearance as the common man? Was some other trait then deemed inferior? For example language/accent, dress, religion, etc…? I ask because it seems that every “tribe” of humans seems to feel the need to show that they’re superior to others in some way.
