A FILM BY ABASSI OKORO
Nine women of color from different backgrounds all share at least one commonality, they must contend with the celebration of whiteness as they navigate through the augmented reality of European beauty standards. These women discuss ways to desperately fight to find their way out of the matrix of racial aesthetics.
Starring Rachel Shah, Actress Maya Rock, Kris Murray, Constance Coleman, Shannon Sayles, Tora Tunstall, Barbara Winfield, Kaitlyn Ambush and introducing fashion model and artist, Jacky Lee.
"GIRLS LIKE ME GREW UP HATING OURSELVES, CONSTANTLY TRYING TO PLAY A GAME THAT WAS RIGGED. WHAT WE DIDN'T KNOW IS THAT WE WOULD NEVER GAIN ENOUGH POINTS TO WIN. EVEN LOOKING IN THE MIRROR WAS JARRING; IT TORE US AWAY FROM HAVING A REAL IDENTITY AS WE FELT WE WERE NOT ENTITLED TO OUR OWN."
"FINALLY, WOMEN ARE BEING HEARD AND MADE TO FEEL BEAUTIFUL BY WOMEN OF THEIR OWN KIND, NOT BY WHITE CORPORATIONS SEEKING TO MAKE A PROFIT OFF THE INSECURITIES AND NEEDS OF WOMEN OF COLOR."
