Dr. Mystery's piece, titled "Symptoms," is about the way colorism has hurt their self-confidence as a darker-skinned South Asian person. They explain “I know a lot of times people make throwaway comments about someone else's body and don't think it's a big deal, but your words can really have an impact on some people. Even if I am aware that dark skin is beautiful, it's hard to always apply that thinking to myself. We are so much harder on ourselves, and those messages can be so deeply internalized.”https://womenslunchplace.org/donate
