Project Title: Shades of a Black Girl: The Difference Between You and I
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Racism exists between different racial groups, but colorism exists within your own race, within your own people. Colorism has been an issue in the African American culture since slavery with lighter skin being better than darker skin. This thinking has been passed down from generation to generation and affects young girls in different ways within American culture. Colorism starts at a young and impactful age for young girls at a time when they are figuring out who they are and where they belong in the world. This issue filters into adulthood; whether it\u2019s the job she attains, the way she wears her hair, the business she starts, or the men she attracts. Colorism profoundly affects young children and their families due to how ingrained it is in communities of color. Colorism invokes many issues for young students, such as struggles with cultural identity, insecurity, and feelings of misrepresentation. Colorism has divided a culture of young black women that are stronger together than on their own. We are proud to partner with Higher Ground Neighborhood Development Group (HGDG) in several projects that support children and young adults in our community. In partnering with youth organizations, we are able to connect with the youth and provide access to art, culture, and education at no cost for the youth. Young people are experiencing unprecedented levels of disconnection from opportunity. In addition, early intervention is critical in helping youth lay strong foundations for healthy habits that improve success in adulthood. <\/p>\n
