What I think about the videos is that because of colorism
people get divided in there community. Also people get judged and questioned
about what theirs race is or were they come from because of their skin color. Some
people may be called black because of their skin color but are from a whole
other culture. Other people see their self as mixed in many cases people have
white dads/moms or black/white dads and its hard for them to define themselves
because others question them if it is true based on their skin color. Kids start
thinking about colorism since an early age saying they hate their skin colors because
its ugly. Being a different skin color does affect your lifestyle because it
can be a problem while applying to colleges or having a job or getting one. The
video taught me that 1/32th of you is black. This relates to me because people identify
me as Mexican because of my skin color when I am actually from Honduras a whole
different culture I consider myself a mixed Honduran because of all the things
that I am mixed with from my race ethics so I consider and I would identify myself
a mixed Honduran Hispanic.
