She has aged beautifully. For 90 she looks sensational.  Some of it is genetic.  If she has had a face lift, she had a good one.

@SilleeMee Thank you for sharing your source.  In what year did you take the course? Currently, many doctors and medical students are known to possess limited or no knowlege aboiut racial groups other than their own and to simultaneously hold views that are biased and wrong about those groups. Conceptions about the anatomy and physiology of Black bodies has long been used as justiification for slavery, post slavery treatment, and current day healthcare inequities.

 

Here are two studies that address issues such toleration of pain:https://www.ncbi.nl

m.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4843483/  and skin attributes: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14640777/.  Many of the differences in skin are at the cellular level.  May I suggest that you read the abstracts?  Thanks.

Looks interesting.  It's only one hour.

Also, folks, this Sunday's Parade magazine's cover story features Rita Moreno. 

 

She is on fire!

 

[Just checked her Wiki page.  She turns 90 on December 11.  What a fabulous gold path is leading her to 90.]
