Educated 2.0: 'Colourism'

from Inside Our Empire Hosted by Jomi & Tolu

After last week's technical difficulties, your Naija babes are back!! This week the girls are chatting it up with a hot topic that's much too often swept under the rug out of ignorance. The topic is COLOURISM. The unspoken truth about the privilege that lighter skinned people have over dark skins, specifically in the black community. In this serious but funny episode, the girls touch on a range of subjects like social media, prejudice, fetishization, slavery, and society's weird obsession with lightskin babies. And as usual, bringing it all in to discuss how this affects us as young girls who can't fit into the beauty standard even within our own ethnic community. Don't be scared, there's something for everyone to learn, and as always- it's all good vibes here. Grab some water, sit down, and let THE Naija babes educate you in the second and final episode of the 'Educated' Series.
