Colorism is a social hierarchy that favors people with lighter skin tones and stigmatizes people with darker skin tones. Colorism frays the fabric of our homes and communities and jeopardizes the lives and livelihoods of individuals most impacted. Dr. Sarah L. Webb’s Colorism arrives as a fresh perspective on how we move toward a world free from harmful stigma and discord — toward a more liberated, more loving world. In Colorism, Dr. Sarah shows us how colorism goes unrecognized by most even as it contours our everyday lives. Soulfully told and richly informational, Colorism rounds out with revisions we can all make to show up for one another.
