black-culture:

I need to see this. People of color in general need to see this. When will we stop struggling against the impact of oppression? When are ALL our societies - of latino, asian (east, southwest etc), black - going to finally be able to rid ourselves of this prominent normalization of a White discourse of our society??

I believe that only when we as people of color are able to cast off white notions of social norms (living, beauty, interactions) will there be the respect that comes with a meeting of the minds. Not a constant, impossible game of catch up that breaks young people’s hearts and spirits. 

I’ve blogged about the Dark Girls documentary before and i’ll do it again because its important for people to know about. Watch the preview - im still waiting for the full version to come out near me/online

Seems fairly interesting. Obviously, coming from a mixed white & black background, I’ve never really encountered any of this stuff, but it’s an interesting and odd thing to observe. I’d quite like to see ‘Good Hair’, as well.
