2. What is Colorism?
It is a term that was coined in 1980’s to describe discrimination based
on the skin tone.
Colorism occurs within the rational groupings.
This is relatively a new social issue.
This is an issue that we see on an International scale.
3. Our society has an obsession with white skin.
We saw it in Africa during the slave trade ,where people with darker skin were ascribed as lower
monetary.
Even today in matrimonial sites before they asked about girls education or economic status, they
request a bride with fair skin.
Beauty is a subjective experience. Its not restricted to particular color or shape.
Its rooted in how someone makes you feel.
“BROWN IS BEAUTIFUL”.
5. I am not sorry for having some extra melanin.
I couldn’t care less about your opinion on my skin.
Its dark and beautiful, It glows in the sun.
Bleaching creams are disgusting so is the “COLORISM”.
WHY ALL BEAUTY BRANDS FOCUSES TOO MUCH ON “WHITE” ?
THINK WISELY!
THANK YOU.
