Prompt Response: It was the day I had to meet my best friends mother, and I was so nervous. I've known this person for years, but I never expected to get their mother. my first impression was that she is a very serious person, because of her serious resting face. It wasn't until a school event she came up to me, but turns out she was a genuine person. She even offered to pay for my meal after a friend gathering after the event.
Summary: Today, we learned how colorise is persuade in India.
Reflection: I think colorism is a form of racism. Having a negative constructed upon those with darker skin tone are seen as less beautiful, poor, and dirty. This negative view made, is sad because it is also affecting the younger generations. People shouldn't be put on a label based on the colour of their skin and encouraging those to change it. Brightening creams can lead to allergic reactions, skin cancer, and burns.
