The phrase "pretty for a dark girl" has been said to dark skin women as an backhanded compliment. We are not beautiful in spite of our dark skin, we are beautiful because of every detail about us, including our melanin. The book, "Pretty. For a Dark Girl," is a love letter to black girls and women across the diaspora, celebrating our melanin. It reminds us that we must encourage the lesson of self love and cultural pride.
Oh, you're gorgeous for a girl with dark complexion.Many women and girls with dark skin may hear this message throughout their lives. Although the speaker may have meant well, the comment is not a complement. It is among the best illustrations of colorism. For far too long, society has set the bar for what constitutes beautiful, but Melanin seeks to change that. Melanin is a creative outlet and reaction to colorism. Eleven Black women of diverse colors and shades share their own experiences with colorism in this book. The interactions range from favorable to unfavorable, yet they all share the same trait: a love of oneself. You will journey alongside the women in Melanin as they narrate their past and current emotions and ideas on one's value and love for oneself.
