has anyone heard of yet or read TayeDiggs book “Chocolate Me”? I just found out about it. Addresses the topic of colorism & self acceptance! I gotta get it soon, you should too! Great book for the little ones and a great eye opener and teaching tool for everyone! :) This makes me so excited & happy. Thank you Taye!!!

My name is Kay! I am a 20 year old college stude from Baltimore, Maryland. Being a darker skinned African American female, I have been affected by shadeism and have seen other girls, particularly African and African American suffer internally over this issue. It’s been drilled into some of our minds that dark skin is unattractive by family members, the media and peers. Sadly, some of us begin to really believe it. This shouldn’t be at all. I want to encourage and inspire girls to overcome this complex about their skin color. I want to help all girls with a darker skin complexion feel confident and comfortable in their skin. Brown skin is beautiful. Dark skin is beautiful. Let’s embrace it! This site/movement is for you. *I do not own any images unless stated otherwise*
