Dark Girls??

Good Morning Fly Girls!

So, you automatically know that you’re gorgeous, fly and fierce you are no matter what size or shade you are. It’s a simple fact! It does not matter what any other person thinks or even says about your stunning beauty. As long as you know your worth and flyness, you dictate how others view you as well! As girls of color we sometimes seem divided  by our sizes, hair texture, backgrounds and yes, even different shades. We all can turn on the TV and may see that different skin tones are embraced more in media.

The film’s directors Bill Duke & Channsin Berry  covers the separation that some girls have with overcoming having darker skin tones in their movie “Dark Girls.” Berry said, “When Bill called me with the idea of a documentary about dark-skinned women, I was in right away. Being a dark-skinned Black man, like Bill, I have gone through similar traumas. Being separated and discriminated against by our own people. It stifles your self-esteem. Bill and I shared our similar experiences and immediately understood that we knew the best way to approach this.”

So C.O.R.E  girls, do you feel like it’s a separation in skin tones? Do you feel like darker tone girls are not as accepted in media?

Time to SPEAK OUT!
