Women holding hands: dark skin tone, light skin tone Emoji
People

Usage Context

History
Following the 2010s push for more diverse representation in digital communication, Unicode introduced the ZWJ (Zero Width Joiner) sequence technology. This allowed for the combination of individual character emojis to create complex, multi-person clusters, finally bringing customizable skin tones to group icons in 2019.
