      Its not real praise, it's objectivism. They are viewed as smarter or better husbands and fathers or better providers. Women of all races "praise" dark skinned Black men for the physical stereotypes they were taught (more masculine and sexually on point in every way). Of course, not all dark skinned Black men are that.
      Dark skinned women want what every woman wants and that is to be treated with respect.

    Thank you Dr Webb for bringing intelligence to the panel. I love how you are able to address the gaslighting and deflections. You are the queen of overcoming objections. I didn’t think at first that some of the panelists should have been invited but what I realized is that they did serve a purpose. They brought the usual ignorant colorist thoughts of many which allowed the other panelists to correct them. I’d love to see panels on this show (bc of the platform that it is and its reach) that are just full of experts that can provide the education that is needed to eradicate colorism, texturism, featurism etc. Invite all experts like Dr Webb and leave out the comedian and the chef bc they aren’t experts. This is not a cooking show or comedy hour.

    I disagree with Tammy about there being an abundance of darkskinned actresses. There are young darkskinned girls lacking in the movie industry. Yes we have viola Davis and some others but they are older black women. All the young desirable black girl roles go to zendaya, yara shahidi, Amandla, and other biracial actresses.

    A part of me wishes the host didn’t ask, “does colorism exist or not?” - “are there advantages?” Colorism isn’t debatable. Let’s lean into the research - it’s there. Instead, ask, “Where do you see colorism?” “How have you navigated colorism?” The premise makes clear that colorism is a fact.

    This is why Tammi Mac's Fox Soul panels flop. She takes serious topics (which really are obvious truths and not even debatable) then asks goofy ass people with no logic and piss-poor arguments to come on the panel. Then she turns around and asks a stupid ass question like "aRE ThErE aDvanTagES" to colorism, like girl what??? Instead of asking thoughtful questions like "Can you give examples of colorism in black culture? Do you think there's a correlation between a eurocentric beauty standard and colorism? Is there a difference between how dark skin women and dark skin men are treated? Why or why not?"

    "Colorism, a term believed to be first coined in 1982 by Pulitzer Prize winner Alice Walker, was defined by her to mean the “prejudicial or preferential treatment of same-race people based solely on their lighter color.”
    It is not racism although there is a clear relationship. A clear example of racism would involve a business that refuses to hire Black people.
    Colorism would not preclude the hiring of a Black person, but there would be a preference for a Black person with a lighter skin tone than a darker skinned person. From this example one can see too that colorism can not only occur within same-raced peoples but also across races. Colorism also is often gendered.
    Because of its unique relationship to who and what is beautiful, it has a tendency, although not exclusively, to affect and infect women more than men."
    Colorism is rooted in a racist stratification where skin color & ancestry determine whether one was free or enslaved in a white supremacist society. It is the bias against DARKER skinned people in Black and Brown communities.

    What is not discussed and should be is that colorism is more prevalent within the African, Afro-Caribbean, and Afro-Latino communities and not as much within Native USA Black or the Freedman. So that is why some people say yes and some say no. It depends on the culture. Native Black Americans didn't have a caste system in our culture because we were all Black regardless of color to the dominant society.. nor “ improve the race” nor “ skin bleaching” Super clear on the panel that at least two of the women are non-Native Black Americans.

Yes, it happens( not disputing that) in our (Native Black)culture. But it is much more prevalent in African, Afro-Latino, and Afro-Caribbeans cultures which makes sense because of the caste system in their own countries.
