I did experience colorism come to think of it. I was a little kid, and two other kids were in the playground with me. I sat on bench in the shade. This lighter skinned guy stood in the sun for some reason. This lighter skinned girl said, just in ear shot. "He's quite dark, why doesn't he let you seat on the bench. He could bare the sun more than you." At the time I brushed it off, but come to think of it, it was pretty prejudiced imho. Also, I sorta sugar coated what she said, 'cause she said it in a pidgin, crude version of English which most of you wouldn't understand. Ironically though, this same girl ended up wanting me as her bf when we were teens. I turned her down reminding her of what she said. "Justice has finally been served," I said to myself with a grin. Other than that I really haven't met any type of racism. I usually don't go looking for it so..
