Rihanna Light Skin Discrimination
Rihanna says she was the victim of discrimination as a child growing up in Barbados because of her light skin.
“Having lighter skin wasn’t a problem in my household, but it was when I went to school -which really confused me at first,” the twenty year-old Grammy winner said in the August issue of In Style Magazine.
“The harassment continued to my very last day of elementary school.”
