The Blues and Browns of the Twin Lands of Kiaralot and Donekiaratall

"Juneteenth," celebrating the date of the emancipation of the last slaves in the United States of America, also marks the first meeting of an Education-Advocacy group, P-CoC Inc Parenting Children of Color, on June 19th, 2020, at the residence of Dr. Damaris-Lois Yamoah Lang, the Founder and President. Dr. Lang, whose doctoral work focused on the neurobiology of behavior (paternal care), explains that social behaviors, including racism and colorism, stem from the brain's perceptions. She emphasized that addressing racial inequities in our society will require curtailing negative outside influx, which causes a shift in our facial skin-tone recognition-primed brain from a survival instinct into the realm of unconscious bias associated with racial stereotypes. In a relatively straightforward story, the author scales down the complexity of the underlying mechanisms shaping our socio-structural interactions into a simple account to reflect the gist of society's discriminatory practices fueled by stereotypes that lead to prejudices and biases against the marginalized.
