THE OBJECTIVE IS TO EDUCATE PEOPLE THROUGH NEWS ARTICLES, POETRY, BOOKS, VIDEOS AND VARIOUS OTHER FORMS OF MEDIA.
I found the video informative. Overall, it would appear that colourism affects black women dispropotionately. It is easier to find images of men with a darker complexion than those of women. Black women carry a great burden where they are often props, punchlines or stereotypes. This message is also carried in the wider media, the recent GAP advert is an example. I have addressed the issue more fully (https://imjussayin2.wordpress.com/2016/05/06/mind-the-gap). Thank you for the post.
