How to make my skin lighter?

I'm black, but I go to an all white school and I get beat up and called names every day. They think I'm one of those stereotypical ones that shoot people and sells drugs. I told my dad to stop because kids were mad at me for it, but he wont. I just want to look white so I don't have to put up with it anymore. Is there any kind of cream or something I could use, I saw sammy sosa did it, what did he use?
