WITH LOVE AND LIGHT
Almost every person of African or Black descent has likely experienced Colorism in someway shape or form. Colorism is one of the oldest mechanisms used to create a divisive community amongst Black people. Even more so, it has extended itself to other races and cultures, Indian and Latinx communities to name a few. Colorism has plagued our communities to negatively impact how we view certain standards of beauty and class in society. And here we are. Still having this divisive nature of Colorism in 2022.
We often categorize ourselves as light-skinned or dark-skinned or even more perplexing, brown-skinned. We categorize ourselves on a color wheel that isn’t even really a color wheel. The truth is, we’re all brown, but our skin has been blessed with so many different hues of brown. So much so that we are truly colorful. Yes, we are colored. We are so full of color. When God created us, he pushed our bodies closer to the sun so that our melanin could shine, and we could truly warm and radiate this Earth. The best part of being colored is that we are all so unique in our own skin. We need to honor that. When I look at you, I see your own unique hue of colorful brown, kissed by the sun. I want to always celebrate you and look at you in reverence of your beautiful brown skin. Your glow finds beauty in all things brown. Let’s celebrate your glow. Let’s celebrate your Hueman Sol.
I'm excited to introduce and share Hueman Sol with you in hopes that this platform embraces you with community, engages you with perspective, inspires you with impact and most importantly, empowers you with confidence and love.
Sending love and light to you always,
XOXO
