Elementary View: African Americans Intraracial And Cultural Dynamics

No, not colorism in reverse, but rather an intraracial cultural examination of African Americans:

Light-skinned American blacks, particularly Generation X and those prior to it, seem more self-conscious and outspoken about their historical roots and the viciousness of slavery because the evidence of what occurred is both profound and carried with them in their outward appearance. Though not any less distressing as the burdens and remnants of slavery for dark-skinned blacks, this demographic of Black culture tends to carry the burdens and remnants of slavery in their hearts under a notably different guise.
