The Biracial Aesthetic: Colorism and Hollywood.

[philmonroe]

If you mean calling out the hypocrisy..

I have, on social media.

On social media? Lol ok you've did your part

 

[ahdsend]

yea its like a complete opposite of the 90s

cuz back then dark skin black women were the standard in media... music videos, tv shows, movies, modeling industry...

but thats cuz naomi campbell and whitney houston blew up in the late 80s...

90s hollywood dark skin black women were more likely to get cast in postive character roles...

fast forward to the 2000s when alicia keys and beyonce blew up... then later rihanna...

now its back to light skin or "exotic" women in demand... like it was in the 80s..

black patriarch broke it all the way down...

In dating we don't but yall new age men that move like bytches still don't get it. Even in your poor example we don't. You looking for whites to have your same views on things? Y'all clowns lost. Why would I expect whites to have my same standards of beauty? I mean don't you like black features more than white ones? Why wouldn't they be similar?

blah blah blah don't address me til you've read a book

Never emotional over the net but I know you are because you literally reading my words in tones. Exactly what a bytch would do. Why would I be mad? You said don't address you until I read a book and I just literally finished reading one and don't see what that has to do with anything. Try again bytch

I

Don't Forget Whoopi Goldberg basically ran the 80's and early 90s.

But colorism in hollywood does exist, it's just mainly with roles that are meant to have eye candy or be sexually appealing. They always go light skinned actresses in those cases.
But in a regular drama's, comedy or anything not meant to look sexy, i don't see many cases of colorism.

The real issue I see in Hollywood is not showing black couples. I hate seeing a movie and the brother don’t get a girl and the sista is with a white boy

 

[The Singularity]

I think some of these biracial actors who consider themselves social justice warriors should take a stand by not taking roles playing black characters. But we all know they just gonna cash that check nine times out of ten.

More like ten out of ten. Those hypocrites.
