For almost 25 years now, Crayola has tried to make up for it with these….
I have to admit…. when I saw them for the first time I thought it was a joke!
Now I see what the’re trying to do, and I give them some credit for effort…but they could have called them "Multi skin tones. "Some groups are upset to find their “cultures” supposedly defined by a color.
“Indian Red” is a paint color based on the color of a soil in India. It has nothing to do with Native Americans. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_red_(color)

I definitely remember having “flesh” in my crayon boxes in the late 60s, and I don’t think they were 5 years old, either.

I’m sure of seen paints refered to as flesh when I use to paint figures.
