What It's Like To Be Dark-skined In India

India is a stunning country with a rich history, culture, and delectable cuisine. How can someone despise a place with such a vibrant environment? We have people from many cultures, languages, and beliefs living together under one roof. But there is a cancer that is spreading behind India's attractive facade, and the people are failing to see it: colorism

Colorism is the act of discriminating against someone based on their skin colour. You may believe that racism against Indians based on their dark skin occurs exclusively outside of India, but what if we told you that the same racism occurs within India as well? We discuss and struggle for the privileges that some people enjoy based on caste, creed, and religion, but we never consider that people in India also have these privileges.There are no arguments in India about the prejudice we encounter as people with dark complexion. It doesn't matter if you're a dark-skinned girl or a dark-skinned male with a beautiful name, since people will call you by a name that directly or indirectly signifies "black" or "dark."

On social media, I recently came across a meme with a photo of a dark-skinned woman and the comment, "tag your friend who would marry her." There were a lot of stupid comments about the girl's dark skin tone and weight in that meme. At the time, I was in a horrible mood.After seeing it, the first thought that came to mind was that we have become so engrossed in roasting our friends that we have lost sight of the fine line between a joke and decency. We've forgotten that the girl in the photograph could be you, your sister, brother, or someone you care about.

who has been subjected to colorism since childhood She was dark-skinned and had a fair-skinned younger sibling. Her brother was adored by family and friends, but she was often chastised and even punished for little infractions. She was bright and had a lovely heart, but she was never loved as much as she deserved. Once, a mutual acquaintance who worked as a professional photographer for a well-known magazine, an article over dark skin tones in India.She consented and was featured in the storey as a result. When the magazine was published a few days later, the youngster learned that she had been featured on the cover page. This was the point at which the tables began to turn against her. Her relatives and friends, who had previously cursed her for having a dark complexion, were now complimenting her on her beauty.

We as a culture should stop putting individuals down and humiliating them because of their differences, whether it's the way they speak, dress, or the colour of their skin. We should love them as much as they deserve to be loved. Many people in our culture discriminate against others.making a person depressed to the point where he or she considers hurting himself If society is driving him or her down the path of self-harm, perhaps you may be the one to encourage him or her to take one step back by loving them for who they are.

You, the person reading this, is among the most beautiful person in the world!
