Sosa's choice -- not just cosmetic - Leonard Pitts Jr. - MiamiHerald.com

So...where's the ointment to take away my disability?

Sosa's choice -- not just cosmetic - Leonard Pitts Jr. - MiamiHerald.com: "``Your column on Sammy Sosa's skin cream use is off base and sends a wrong message. The issue is the man's character -- not the color of his skin. Your column seemingly assumes he lightens his skin color out of shame and fails to recognize that he may simply be doing it out of vanity or his own sense of personal style. Plenty of fair-skinned people use skin-darkening creams, sun baths, tanning beds for that purpose and the only criticism leveled at them is vanity and stupidity for ignoring skin cancer warnings. The same should hold for Sammy."
