This is colorism in REAL TIME. They’re making a young dark skin girl an activist, and talking about how stong she is. This is a CHILD https://twitter.com/sabrinafranza/status/1268704176164548611?s=21 …https://twitter.com/sabrinafranza/status/1268704176164548611 …

My question was how is this particular case colorism. I see your point, but I also feel like because she’s a child her parents are with her either allowing it or pushing her to do it. Which is why I didn’t see it as colorism.

The media’s fascination with making her the face of activism at such a young age, they wouldn’t have a light skin girl doing this bs
