あらすじ・解説
This episode takes a hard look at colorism—one of the most persistent and uncomfortable issues within the Black community. Joined by DEI specialist Shareem Annan, who brings over 20 years of experience in diversity, equity, and inclusion work, the conversation digs into how skin tone has shaped identity, access, and perception both historically and today.
From beauty standards and media representation to workplace dynamics and personal relationships, we unpack the subtle—and not so subtle—ways colorism continues to show up in our lives. Shareem offers both professional insight and real-world perspective on how these biases are formed, reinforced, and, more importantly, how they can be challenged.
It’s an honest, necessary conversation about what it will take to confront colorism within our own community—and move toward something more unified, aware, and intentional.
