"it is far easier to resent one’s own skin for giving you advantages you haven’t earned than despising it for what it takes away." Elizabeth Pears discussing the privilege she experienced being mixed, and the resentment she felt as she became aware of colourism. "I didn't want preferential treatment because of something as superficial as skin colour or hair texture. My mother, the first woman I ever knew, loved and admired, was a dark-skinned black woman and, to me, the epitome of beauty and glamour. What was the big deal?" for The New Statesman, 2013
According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), 77 per cent of Nigerian women use lightening creams. In India – home to a third of the world’s poorest people – two thirds of all skin products contain lightening agents. For some, lighter skin is seen as a route out of poverty, creating opportunities to cheat a system engineered to oppress. It South Africa, it is the difference between being black and part of the ‘coloured’ middle class. ▫️
I'll be discussing colourism with @hetafell, Chrystal Genesis of @stancepodcast and Dr Aisha Phoenix of SOAS for the @ripostemagazine panel at the Ace Hotel tomorrow morning. #colourism KayX
