Beyonce's dad criticises the music industry's 'colourism'

Beyonce's father, Mathew Knowles, says the music industry must stop ignoring singers with dark skin, saying his daughter's success was easier because she is relatively light-skinned. He has written a book on race relations in the United States - "Racism: From the Eyes of a Child", and has been talking to the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Dan Damon about it.
