I always knew how powerful I am as a melanin rich chocolate woman.. Black girls have to know that as well. Promotion of positive images and encouragement for dark skin black women and girls can greatly improve the way they feel about themselves. It’s to have important to have our own lane and platform where we can be seen and uplifted. The lack of promotion for dark skin black women and girls is the norm so they think that they don’t deserve praise or something is wrong with them for wanting to be seen or elevated.
Dark skin black women and girls like me should support platforms that celebrate us and where we don’t have to beg to celebrate us. Creating images of dark skin black women and girls is always a confidence booster for them. Black parents should be educating their dark skin black children especially girls on colorism and encourage them on loving their skin color. It is very therapeutic and empowering to talk about it and how to respond to it. By doing this black women and girls will bee able to navigate the world in a way that will enhance their life and well-being
