it’s like they don’t even realize that only having lightskins in the media is still a lack of rep 😭🙏🏽

And they always cast Zendaya. I love her; however, I need to see more darker black women represented in films

I saw a thread on Twitter on how even our dark skin women actresses aren’t even really dark skinned, ex. Keke Palmer and Gabrielle Union

I also wanna point out that they don't even cast fully black light skins anymore. All the "light skins" are really just biracials.

Any time it is a darkskin woman in a film they always make her a stereotype.

Zazie should’ve never played Stagecoach Mary. Lightskinned and mixed actresses need to turn down these roles and combat colorism in Hollywood!

You would think that by now the light/biracial trio would STOP ACCEPTING THESE ROLES and recommend a darkskinned friend 😭😭😭

The erasure of fully Black women in the media is prominent. They don’t even hire lightskin Black women, they’re usually biracial or multiracial.

When said this about “The harder they fall” that’s exactly what people said back to me. Why is wanting more representation such a threat… very weird

I really don’t want our generation of blk actresses to be full of light skins. As much as I love zendaya, yara, amandla, and etc. They need to stop—

And they only use darkskins if it’s for a role that purposely masculinizes them
