Lenin Skin Lightening Joke

"Lenin" otherwise known as Lehana, was an African revolutionary who was exiled to Russia following a failed revolution against British rule in SA. During his journey, he contracted an illness that made his skin lighter. With modern tech, we can see what he would've looked like.

A fake historical Twitter post claims that Lenin was an African revolutionary named Lehana whose skin became lighter during his journey to Russia. It places a portrait of Vladimir Lenin beside a modern photograph of a similar-looking Black man, creating an absurd parody of historical revisionism and image-editing explanations.
