Produktbeschreibung

This timely and unique book explores the concept of colorism, which is discrimination based on the color of a person's skin, in a world where arguably light skin is privileged over dark, and one's wealth, health, and opportunities are impacted by skin color, sometimes irrespective of one's racial background.
