Mathew Knowles new book, “Racism from the Eyes of a Child” Colorism, internalized racism, and the effects on our nation’s youth are all trending topics. Young people or some people don’t like embracing their color. And light skin vs. dark skin has always been an issue in the black community. It’s a necessary dialogue about a generation-old taboo and its traumatic after effects.
Music mogul Mathew Knowles has sparked the conversation with his new book, Racism from the Eyes of a Child, which uses the underpinnings of his memoir, growing up in the 50’s-70’s, as a backdrop to lessons about America’s most segregated era.
Join Host Tracy L. Bell at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio, as she sit down in our studios with Mathew Knowles about his newly released book and the discussion it has sparked on social media.
In the meantime, sound off here and we’ll see you on the air.

Y’all better put some respeck on Matthew Knowles name! Beyoncé is a grown woman with her own cheating ass husband to deal with. She forgives him but can’t forgive the man who conceived her and made her famous. Say what you will, but this man loved Beyoncé and sacrificed his life for her career! She would be a Texas housewife or baller’s wife if it wasn’t for her daddy, cause Lord knows she’s kinda slow. Like Oprah said in The Butler, everything Beyoncé has in life she owes to her daddy.
