the politics nobody wants to talk about: your hair, your skin, your worth

I’ve been sitting on this topic for a while because it’s personal, and it’s uncomfortable. But it’s necessary. In this video, we’re diving into the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways anti-Blackness shows up in our lives—from hair texture politics to colorism, beauty standards, and beyond. This isn’t about pointing fingers; it’s about growth and healing. Let’s unlearn these narratives together so we can embrace our full, authentic selves. Let’s talk in the comments—share your experiences, your thoughts, and even your disagreements. Let’s make this a space for honest, respectful dialogue! Enjoyed this video?
