”So You‘re Just Pretty For a Black Girl”

Sufficiently Black

In this episode, the hosts discuss getting the so-called compliment, "you're pretty for a black girl." The conversation dives into how colorism impacts the way we perceive compliments. The four women touch on the fact that compliments on light skin can come off as a fetish while compliments on dark skin are more likely to be received in a positive light.
