    if you’re a colorist just say that n go

    Kia Ora!! This is our second part of the colourism, texturism, and featurism conversations. We recorded this last year and we thought we should continue this conversation and bring more personal experience into the discussion. We are so happy with this episode and we hope you guys not only learn through our traumatising experiences but also have a bit of laugh.

    is she really your favourite black girl ?

    Kia Ora e te whānau! In this weeks episode we introduce a discussion surrounding colourism, texturism, and featurism. We are stoked to be able to discuss these often dismissed topics on our pod and we hope to continue this conversation further. Our main focus for our first part of this conversation majorly focuses on palatable media and how these forms of racism play a huge role in the media you intake. The youtubers mentioned are Khadija Mbowe https://www.youtube.com/c/KhadijaMbowe and Amandamaryanna https://www.youtube.com/c/amandamaryanna .
