Colorism | Free Huey

Colorism is a global issue, and we should stop pretending it isn't. Let's talk about it. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ DONATE TO THE OKRA PROJECT: ► DONATION LINK: https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/dona... ► We managed to raise over $100 for the Okra Project last week, and I'm really proud. It'd be cool if you guys helped feed some Black Trans Folk. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ This one was heavily requested after the last Free Huey. I guess it makes sense considering I touched on Colorism in the UK mildly, but never dived too deep into my thoughts on the topic at hand. It's an interesting discussion to say the least, especially considering how much it's overlooked in pertains to its effects on black women, how it intersects globally and the ideas it perpetuates. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ SUPPORT BLACKGEEKYGIRL! ► TWITTER:   / geekyblackgirl   ► INSTAGRAM:   / blackgeekygirl   ► YOUTUBE:    / @blackgeekygirl5885   ► Massive thank you to her for allowing me to plug her stuff here. Her style is super cool, and I don't see many people tackling her niche with as much class as she does.

The secret message this time is that there's no real justifiable reason for having a preference for certain skin complexions or races. It's all just exoticisation. Even if there are cultural differences, a relationship requires effort regardless to survive. Stop normalising exoticisation. #FreeHuey #Colorism #BlackLivesMatter
