Racism and colorism are both extremely prevalent in our society, and recent events have made that clearer than ever. Racism is when one racial or ethnic group discriminates against another racial or ethnic group, whereas colorism is when one person from one racial or ethnic group discriminates against another person within the same racial or ethnic group. Both are terrible issues in our world, and the judgement of people based on their looks needs to stop. In this episode, I discuss colorism and the fair-skin ideology with my friend Shravya, and we both learn a little more about the way skin color has a lasting impact on your life.

FOR RESOURCES AND INFORMATION: https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/ . We live in a world where, unfortunately, some people are treated as “less” than others due to things such as the color of their skin. Society has conditioned us to think that the darker the skin, the "uglier" the person. In this episode, I spoke with my friend Reeya about the anti-black and racist values in the Indian culture we grew up with, being allies, and how we are educating ourselves. *Audio quality is not the best since we recorded this over video call*
