another topic i am considering writing about is how people through out history not only whites have fed African American children with the idea that something is wrong with being African American. in the children's study where the children were asked which doll was the nicest or which doll was the best the majority of the children answered that the white doll was best. I have always wondered why is that? As an African American child growing up around most African Americans there was constant talk of how being of a lighter skin color ,even though you are still African American, is better how its harder to get ahead if your a darker complexion than other blacks in the world , and although it was never directly stated to me it was always an understanding that being a light skin African American or being white enables you to do more, or is the better race . Just like in both excepts by Grainier and Wright the young children are faced with or subconsciously taught that the white race is superior. Even until this day other people are telling us our insecurities and i still struggle with fully being proud of the color of my skin.
