Dark Girls: Preview from Bradinn French on Vimeo.
Watching this reminds me of middle school. I never knew I had big lips until the BLACK kids teased me about them. It’s ashame that we raise our children to denigrate other black people. I don’t mean that we purposely teach them to say the things that they say, but by our behavior we do! We say these things in front of them, and they learn that it is acceptable to treat others in such a way. I really wanted to cry at a lot of the things these ladies were saying. How do you go through life feeling that you’re ugly, dirty, unattractive and unacceptable EVERY DAY?
We have to do better!
