despite social media rumors

LINK

Jackson said the situation is amusing, and he's trying not to worry about what people are saying.

"God created me with light skin," he said. "I can't do anything about the way I look."

Surprised they didn't go with the "We were Hacked" excuse.

Good for him.

Some people need to look in the mirror and reflect on why race matters so much to them.

Anyone who has actually attended a huge public university like UofA or LSU knows that you're really just a number in a sea of students.

Skin color got me in a fraternity but didn't help at all when it came to passing classes. Probably would have been better to be born Indian or Chinese so I would have been in the library 24/7 hitting the books instead of testing the limits of my liver 24/7.

I want to be reincarnated as a Indian guy. You can grow up to be a doctor who knows the kamasutra.

They left out one pertinent detail. Not only does he have "light skin" in his right hand, but he appears to have elephantitius also...
