Paperback or Softback. Condición: New. Colorism: The Politics of Skin Tone and How We Get Free. Book.

Paperback. Condición: New. In a world that feels more divided than ever, there has never been a greater need for a more nuanced conversation about bias. And while racism is widely recognized as a social ill, there is another, more invisible hierarchy informed by our most visible feature, skin tone--and it impacts all of our lives. Dr. Sarah Webb's Colorism arrives to decode the under-discussed topic and offers an actionable program for both personal growth and to course correct for collective healing.Colorism is the systemic oppression and social marginalization of people with darker skin tones and the privileging and empowerment of people with lighter skin tones. Colorism rivals similar societal problems like racism and sexism in that it leads to differences in everything from pay and wealth, healthcare outcomes, and political representation to family, social life, and romantic partnership. So why don't we know how to talk about it or what to do about it? Often shrouded by the desire to "keep it in the family" and deemed taboo among Black and communities of color, in which people of the same race can vary in skin tone, colorism often skates by as sibling disagreements, personal preferences, and other interpersonal conflict, rather than a systemic issue. And it's not just something that people of color face alone. White people, institutions, and even media and entertainment outlets can exhibit colorist behaviors and attitudes too. Dr. Webb explains what colorism is, breaks down where and how it shows up in our lives, and address how it disenfranchises us all. Complete with a framework for addressing the harm that colorism causes, Colorism is an essential tool to help us move toward a more equitable, compassionate world.…

Trade Paperback. A new copy. The essential primer on colorism, and how each of us has a role in dismantling skin tone bias. Racism is easy to spot these days; we know its script, its favorite media tropes, its legislative tactics, and how it makes us feel. But there is another societal ill hiding in racism's shadow: colorism. Colorism is a social hierarchy that favors people with lighter skin tones and stigmatizes people with darker skin tones. More than a debate on social media about who's most attractive, colorism frays the fabric of our homes and communities and jeopardizes the lives and livelihoods of individuals most impacted. Dr. Sarah L. Webb's Colorism arrives as a fresh perspective on how we move toward a world free from harmful stigma and discord--a more liberated, more loving world. In Colorism, Dr. Sarah shows us how colorism goes unrecognized by most even as it contours our every day lives. She leads us through cultural myths, client testimonies and her own personal stories to demonstrate colorism's global stronghold on communities of color and white communities alike. She dissects how dating and pop culture can be hotbeds of discrimination. And she lifts the veil on how colorism can determine our access to education, work, social services, and politics. Soulfully told and richly informational, Colorism rounds out with revisions we can all make to show up for one another. After all, bias may be based on what's on the outside, but true healing starts from within.…
