This is still definitely an issue. My sister-in-law was reading a book to my nephew that dealt with people with all shades and he immediately pointed out the darkest skinned person and said he doesn't like her. My nephew is 3 years old and our immediate family are all shades. He's very fair, but my sister and father are darker skinned. We're trying to get him out of that mind-set, but more importantly, we're concerned about how he's conformed to that.
