After my analysis of mothers and colorism last week and my earlier discussions of fathers and families, I want to step beyond analysis and commentary and speak more directly to strategies for breaking generational cycles of colorism. This week I'm discussing the 5 important environments parents and guardians must curate and maintain in order to help stop the cycle of colorism within their families and among the larger society. Not only do parents care for these environments themselves, they also teach their children how to create and care for these environments too. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.* ✨ Coaching & Support Groups: http://colorismhealing.com/coach

I'm calling this blog post "Mothers and Colorism: Expanded Edition" because this is an update and expansion on the original post written a decade ago. My objective this time around is still to explain some of the more common ways that mothers perpetuate colorism within their families. I also had a more recent discussion on colorist fathers, but there I focused specifically on their impact on daughters. Today I want to speak more broadly to the mother's influence on children across the gender spectrum. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.* ✨ Coaching: http://colorismhealing.com/coach

This week continues the discussion on how we go about unlearning skin color bias. Get caught up on part 1 here. While last week we tackled the overarching strategy, this week we get to explore the novelty of various activities that can help us execute or implement the overall strategies I shared last time. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.* ✨ Coaching: http://colorismhealing.com/coach
Last week (and several years ago!) I unpacked the notion that colorism is "just a preference." This week is all about how we can unlearn skin tone bias aka skin tone preference bka colorism. I'll be sharing some of the mindsets and activities that have helped me and my clients see significant transformations in how we move through the world. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.* ✨ Coaching: http://colorismhealing.com/coach
It's one thing to argue that skin color preference is socially conditioned. It's another thing to clarify why that matters. I wrote a post years ago called "Preference or Prejudice" that I want to cite and expound on this week. But I want to put greater focus on what's next once we understand the roots of those preferences. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.* ✨ Coaching & Support Groups: http://colorismhealing.com/coach
I'm continuing the conversation I started last week (but that's really been a lifetime coming). I talked about being a single dark-skinned Black girl, reflecting mainly on my childhood and young adulthood context. Today I want to reflect more on my adult life, being a single dark skinned Black woman. Where we at now?? *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.* ✨ Coaching: http://colorismhealing.com/coach
I've been wanting to talk about being a single, dark-skinned girl for awhile now, but I struggled to organize my thoughts on the topic and pinpoint what exactly I had to say about it. It's also a vulnerable topic for me, and I wasn't sure I was ready to publicly engage this subject, even though I've skimmed the surface a bit in my recent content. So this week, I'm simply going to start. I'm not putting any pressure on myself to have some kind of manifesto or profound takeaways. I'll simply start the conversation. And where I want to start is by reflecting on my girlhood and young adulthood. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.*
This week's conversation was partly inspired by a Thursday Thoughts newsletter I wrote awhile back. Someone asked me during a live stream: "How are you so confident?" Or something along those lines. I pondered it for a bit, and came to an interesting conclusion. I'm probably not the first person to think of it this way, but I'm sharing it here based on my personal experience as a potential pathway to greater confidence for dark skin folks. It can really apply to anyone, but I'm speaking specifically and directly to my dark-skinned siblings. ----- *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.*
Healing from colorism doesn't just happen and it doesn't just happen over night. Think of colorism healing less as a destination that you get to or a task you complete, and think of it more as change in your everyday habits or a change in your lifestyle. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.*
My Instagram live stream for this week falls on Valentine's Day! While I've never really made a big deal of this day, I felt inspired to celebrate with my audience this year by dedicating my entire live to showing love for dark skin people, especially women, girls, and femmes. Below are the prepared affirmations I share, but be sure to watch the recording to hear the affirmations I read from my audience in the live chat! *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.*
Continuing from last week's conversation about the impact of colorism on self-esteem for dark-skinned girls and women, I'm spending the next few weeks, all of February, to elaborate on cultivating self love for dark-skinned women and girls. I'm kicking it off with the idea of learning to love your dark skin. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.*
The past two weeks, I've discussed colorism as explicit prejudice and colorism as implicit bias. This week, I want to talk about the impact of colorism on self esteem for dark skin girls. We most often talk about bias and prejudice as it pertains to our feelings about other people. But what happens when we internalize colorism and direct those prejudices and biases against ourselves? I'll also touch a bit on self-image, which has a lot to do with how you see yourself and your beliefs about how other people see you. Some of what I share here will be a review of a previous post on internalized colorism. ----- Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.
Are you colorist and don't even know it? Last week we discussed the explicit prejudice of colorism. Building on that conversation, let's consider colorism as implicit bias. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.*
Sometimes, colorism is very subtle. Other times, it's glaring us in the face. That's when colorism is expressed as an explicit prejudice. I want to start with identifying and understanding the explicit prejudice of colorism because 1) it's easy for people just learning about this issue, and 2) we must remember that many people consciously choose colorism. *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.*

Hey Podcast Fam! Due to the nature of this week's live, I could not use my microphone to record me *and* the guest, so for the most consistent audio quality between both of us, I'm using the audio pulled from the video file. My apologies for a less polished audio this week. It's still very much worth your time!!! Bio: Viva (Satirella) is a fourth year student at Cornell University who has a keen interest in social inequalities with a focus on colorism and the rise of skin bleaching products. Growing up in Ghana, West Africa, she noticed the differential treatment between dark skinned individuals like herself and their lighter skinned counterparts. Her tiktok platform seeks to bring awareness to this issue which many Africans deny or overlook, and has received some backlash as a result. Nonetheless, as she likes to say “ I have a mouth on me, and I am not afraid to use it!” She comes for anyone who comes at her sideways, and does not allow anyone to stop her from speaking her truth!

This week's topic was inspired by the most current movie being called out for colorism, The Harder They Fall, because the light-skinned, mixed-race actress Zazie Beetz was cast to play Stagecoach Mary (Mary Fields), a very dark-skinned woman who was the first woman to deliver U.S. mail. The more I learn about Mary Fields, the more obvious it becomes that the colorism in The Harder They Fall is blatant disrespect of this woman's legacy. This portrayal is betrayal.

This week I went Q&A Style. I try to give my honest answers to audience questions about colorism with minimal prep beforehand. So the answers are not only honest, they're also raw. This week's questions about colorism include: ❓--What advice do you have for dark-skinned mothers raising biracial children? ❓--How can I address discrimination against dark-skinned people without it seeming like I'm against light-skinned people? ❓--Colorism or racism--which is more harmful to Black people? ❓--How can I identify colorist practices in a company that I'm applying to work for?
