Detailed Introduction
The 🏿 emoji is a dark skin tone modifier, part of the Unicode standard's Fitzpatrick scale-based skin tone modifiers. It is not used independently but combined with human-like emojis (e.g., 👋 + 🏿 = 👋🏿) to represent dark skin color. This allows for more inclusive and diverse representation in digital communication, enabling users to accurately depict individuals with dark skin tones in various contexts such as greetings, gestures, or person-related emojis. It promotes diversity and helps avoid the default light skin tone assumption in emoji usage.
