A Conversation with a Dark Skin Activist

Rashida Strober coined the phrase "dark skin mental abuse." Since 1998 the "dark skinned activist" has been relentlessly advocating for what she calls “dark skinned beauty equality.” She has appeared on TV, the cover of the Floridian, on international radio and the featured story for many newspapers.

In 2006 she wrote the play turned audio book, "She Black but She Ain’t Ugly: A Dark Skin Girl’s Triumph." 

The story details her struggles of overcoming poverty and dark skin abuse. Sharing her personal story would not only be therapeutic for Rashida but would also help others. A true pioneer, Rashida’s dark skinned activism is the first of its kind. From France to Africa to New York and around the she receives messages of support daily. Rashida says the most rewarding part is helping dark skinned women, men and teenagers who confide in her about dark skinned struggles.
