Colorism Needs A Psychological Revolution
Colorism has inflicted immense harm on the Black community in countless ways. It has subjected Black teenagers to hardships when attending school with white peers, caused distress for Black millennials and Gen Z in the workplace, and historically divided those with lighter and darker complexions. Colorism's detrimental impact has even driven some to alter their skin color permanently. Colorism has continuously imposed anguish and obstacles upon the Black community. We need a psychological revolution to undo its harmful effects.
