"Colorism is the daughter of racism"- Lupita Nyong'o

Whitney and Anu talk about various aspects of colorism within the AAPI community as well as their own experiences dealing with it. How do we reconcile our own experiences with colorism as well as show up for others that our skin color gives us privilege over?
