Racism is a practice brought by one set of people to establish thier superiority over another set, by labelling them with their skin tone!
This was used by the British in the olden days to make sure that others were beneath them.Times have changed now, but thoughts and opinions still remain the same. In the process of assuming and assimilating things from the western culture, we tend to take practices which is absolutely not useful in anyway for anyone’s growth.
What do you think gave way for fairness creams? Why did it become the society’s norm and compulsion to look fair? Why does someone have to emerge superior only by making someone else feel inferior?
People have to know all thier colours don’t matter, if they are dark inside. Your skills intelligence and humanity is what truly matters.
Remember, You don’t have to look fairer to be fairer!
