Colorism in Black and Indigenous Communities with Erica Williams and Amber Stark

Racism re-created the world as Black and White, with Black at the bottom of the social hierarchy and white at the top. Others were added to the spaces between with darker skin associated with Blackness, even within communities seen as white. This conversation with Erica Williams and Amber Starks unpacks the ways in which we have internalized colonial ideas about race and color as well as how these beliefs play out in our broader society, who is acceptable and who is dangerous. Colorism. It's not just Black and White.
