I believe it is important for me to relate this episode of my life.
When I was only 6 years old I decided to put coffee power on my body to match the dark color of my friends , who had dark skin .
My teacher asked me why I had this attitude and I just said that I wanted to be like my friends.
Because light colored people were always separated from dark skinned people.And I didn't understand why all children could be together and equally treated.
Usually the light colored children like mine , were the ones who received the most attention, and were well treated.
I am expressing my indignation that even today similar situations may still be happening around the world based on race discrimination.
Through generations this lack of understanding for the acceptance of differences still happens.
" The beauty of humanity is exactly in the differences, and being able to accept and respect them."( MICHELLE OBAMA)
I developed this image with my team.
