THIS WEEK on Feminist Magazine with host Lynn Harris Ballen :: FIRST … We talk about white privilege, but there’s also light skin privilege. Colorism is a social hierarchy that judges the overall value of people – so that dark-skinned people are often negatively perceived – and research studies show the tangible effects, such as colorism in the “justice” system. Cherise Charleswell and Dr. Sarah L. Webb, founder of Colorism Healing have an in-depth discussion about colorism and work needed to heal it.
