Colorism:  Colorism is the practice of favoring lighter skin over darker skin. The preference for lighter skin can be seen within any racial or ethnic background.

Colorism finds its roots in racism because, without racism, someone’s value and perceived superiority wouldn't be based on the color of their skin.

Colleen Campbell, a Ph.D. candidate in Sociology and African Studies at Princeton University noted, "When we think of racism in the U.S. especially, we think of anti-Black attitudes or institutional processes that entrench whiteness at the top of the social hierarchy."

Furthermore, the preference for lighter skin tones is a result of slavery and since then there are many methods people have used and still use to determine someone's value in society.
