    Tan the rest of your legs so they match LOL.

    But seriously, as African Americans some of us just have multi toned skin so its not that easy. You can try a lightening cream, but most of those don't work that well. Is the skin darker because of eczema? If so, a cortizone cream could help with that. Try Cocoa butter too.

    Lol at turn the legs...I guess it is caused by when you have big thighs close to each other when walking.

    Do your thighs rub together?! Once you lose a little weight and keep them moisturized it will go away.

    Are you diabetic or pre-diabetic? If so it could be a condition known as Acanthosis Nigricans, caused by high insulin levels. As you lose weight this may resolve. Have you had your A1C or blood glucose tested recently?
