Beyond the fact that ink is pigment we use to write on paper, skin color creates circumstances of people’s lives. Some try to use other’s pigment count, like body count, the darker, the more criminal. Others who are the victims of such persecution make the best story or the worst story out of the circumstances they’ve been given. As a writer I see how circumstances and character drives dictate the outcome of stories. Pigment is a circumstantial “strategy” that drives plot.
