10-Year-Old Girl Bullied For Having Dark Skin

Kudos to this young girl and her amazing family. Kharis Rogers can help teach grown woman how to be comfortable in their own skin after being bullied for having darker skin. She would come home crying because kids would call her ugly and bully her because she had darker skin. To make things worse, teachers added to her insecurity and confusion when they gave her a black crayon instead of a brown crayon after being tasked to draw a portrait of herself.

In reaction to this, her mother enrolled her into a more diverse school and rallied behind her encouraging her to love her looks and appreciate her darker complexion. A twitter post done by her sister soon went viral after. 

An issue no 10-year-old should have to deal with. Keep flexin on em!
