NOUN
A dark brown to black pigment occurring in the hair, skin, and iris of the eye in people and animals.
When we're little we don't realize the difference in each others skin color. White, black, light skinned and dark skinned.  We just play tag and hide-and-seek without a worry in the world. It's not until we grow older that self hatred is influenced into our brains. Mary Jane is a girl with a big heart and a bright mind. She's one of the most loved girls in her neighborhood, but the love she has for herself slowly diminishes as she see's how her skin color has a big impact on her life. Follow her as she tries to invoke love into peoples hearts and learns more about who she is as a Dark Skinned woman.All Rights Reserved
