I love fashion, ballet, and art
But all I see are white people. It’s like we People of Color don’t exist in this world. (Well, unless it’s to decorate clothing so you’re even more “fashionable!”)

Dolce & Gabbana Defend Their Controversial... →
My favorite part is when some of the commentators are like “WTF with this political correctness” or “Americans, stop trying to impose your PC-ness on us Europeans.” Some people need a lesson on history, racism, and sensitivity (AKA how not to be a racist asshole).

Because the success of one portion of Asian immigrants justifies the erasure of Asians who continue to struggle.

On dance and a history that doesn't get talked...
One of my dance teachers told me that hip-hop dance arose out of a need to release anger and frustration.

Destiny’s Child’s Lose My Breath video shows such a competition. Rej3ctz’s Cat Daddy references Cali Swag District’s Teach Me How to...
