"I grew up in Australia surrounded by a tight and very traditional Punjabi Sikh community. I graduated with honours in Psychology, and then a masters degree with a publication in health psychology and a PhD, graduating in 2015 after giving birth to my first daughter. I always felt disheartened that my looks were the most important thing in determining my success - in life and in finding a partner.In all honesty, I also didn't know colourism was a construct until just a few years ago. I just knew that I hated the thought of a person being judged on something they couldn't control. We should be able to more than co-exist with people of all shades of colour, to wear what we want and know that it does not in any way reflect our success and has no bearing on our self love and the love we receive from others."
