I am genuinely confused as to why ANY Black influencers would Still in 2023…. want to work with a brand that has 35 shades of porcelain foundation and 5 brown shades (that all pass the historical brown paper bag test btw)..CONTINUOUSLY year after year. Like idk what’s NOT clicking for these people. They don’t care about black women. They aren’t faking it , they’re consistently harmful. At some point reality should kick in.
🎯
To be honest that's how big companies work.
It is so telling how they quietly left the chat
The Tarte CEO deciding to address racism as a get ready is incredulous- if that wasn’t her subliminal shouting out I don’t care …. I don’t know what else is-
Right!!!! It rubbed me all the way wrong
It was all the mini shrugging for Me….👿
Is there just one hotel in Miami? They don’t have to fill ANY small rooms. Book big rooms at multiple hotels 🤔
Hi legend 🔥
I love how we see you on all the videos we watch 😭
There are likely discounts/group rates for booking at just one hotel that make this possible. Hotel vacancies were likely far and few between during this race.
@@1232N Then they really ought to be transparent about everybody who is attending and do a room drawing from a hat.
@@tayzonday why? Should companies have employees draw salaries from a hat?
The room designations are obviously partially dependent upon the value of the creator to the specific company.
There’s no evidence this is dependent upon race.
Are you really suggesting that the company said: “let’s make sure to give the black girls worse accommodations”
If not then what are you asserting?
If not then will you agree that that’s a preposterous conclusion?
It's so weird hearing about Tarte being racist again bc I was around watching Jackie and other creators talk about Tarte back in like 2013/2014
I tried them once prior to Jackie talking about them and my shade was never in stock at my local ulta. I found something better. After the call out ignored. They don't care about people of color.
I said the same thing when I clicked on this video. I thought we were done with Tarte and these trips years ago.
Yeah i thought we all agreed after Alissa and Jackie posted that video we weren’t buying it.
I just said the same thing. I remember Tierra Walker saying something similarly years ago
Same here this has been a decade
Yeah, the Tarte response was super shady and disingenuous. The aftermath from other black influencers was very problematic as well. Cringe just doesn’t quite sum it up. We really want to do the bidding for white supremacy, huh? No solidarity; I don’t recall Bria throwing anyone under the bus.
Nigerian Americans are often conditioned to aspire to the role of *the* sole Black person who has “made it” in white spaces, which is something for us to consciously challenge and contend with. Unfortunately, Specs has not only made it her brand, but has sabotaged the growth of the Black people around her. I’m so embarrassed.
It's easier 2 say 🗑
you don't become the sole black person in the room without being anti-black or perceived as such in some way. If racists are comfortable around you, you have to interrogate that not bask in it because it will turn around and bite you eventually since you are still black.
To call herself Harriet Tubman with no history of chattel slavery is truly sick. Esp with Nigeris having a big hand in it.
My sentiments exactly; embarrassed begins to cover it
Exactly. They have a model minority complex.
Yes, Tarte let's pretend to apologise while not addressing the fact that Black and Brown people got the worst rooms and weren't around for the premium events.
Umm 😂…as a Nigerian I’m not sure why this influencer Nike (never heard of her until this video) is using Nigerian culture to explain herself or her approach to whatever it is she does. I had to rewind this video at least five times to keep track of how she somersaulted (Nigerian for involved) herself into the initial issue you were explaining re: Tarte.
She just seems like an author of confusion 😂
somersaulted is the right word because she was not even at the event. She makes me uneasy at best.
Somersaulted! Hahaa. Mental gymnastics for sure
An author of confusion! You hit the nail on the head. It's very funny when you notice people who are so used to being around people from different ethnic backgrounds, they start using their own ethnic background to explain themselves. Yes there is culture but Nigeria has hundreds of cultural groups and Nigerian people come in all personalities and tendencies.
I use to watch her on TikTok not much followers
She messy
Thank God I click on this video
So I can stay away from people like that 😔
Congrats on being a mommy!
Look, I'm only 1 min in but I had to pause and type a blessing for mommy and babe. Blessings on you two and your community. Thanks Jouelzy for making me smarter
Not that passive aggressive, gaslighting get ready with me 😂!? Girlllllllll... come on sis. That was very white woman (why can't you people be happy with my gracious crumbs) .
It was insane. They need to make it a TikTok challenge. 😂
Thank you for pointing out that being an influencer is WAY more than posting popular videos online. Influencers have teams behind them helping them navigate the industry, deals, controversy, etc.
Specs blocked me for saying something similar to what you said about her need for her parents approval and how it's fucked her up lmao. As a West African i clocked her tea immediately!
I know this is a serious topic regarding how Beauty brands exploit beauty creators- especially black creators - but man I cackled. That Nike/SpecsAndBlazers is a character. WOW. Meanwhile Tarte will just continue their harm under the veil of "diversity and inclusion" because outrage is profitable. Just a mess. MESS😩😩
She’s definitely a pot stirrer and liar 😅
That Nike girl is an author of CONFUSION! Lmao like I didn’t understand her purpose in all of this. Very odd
Awwwww I still can't believe theres a baby around! So precious.🥹
Nigerians aren't a monolith so I wouldn't necessarily say that her particular pathology is related to being Nigerian or specifically Yoruba. Within Nigeria, cultural expectations when it comes to family and respect are wildly different based on what ethnic group you're from (I'm Igbo and my Yoruba friends think Igbos are more disrespectful because we don't have the same rules around family and hierarchy). But even with that, I'd still say that toxic families are toxic regardless of where they're from. Her narcissism seems to be learned based on what you described here about her relationship with her family. Yes, there are some families that will disown their children because of a nontraditional career, but I think that's true of families from a variety of cultures (and probably has more to do with elitism and aspiring to Western ideals of "success" ). In my experience it's rare and I've never actually seen it outside of media. But again I think it speaks more to toxic family dynamics than anything cultural. And I say this coming from a fairly "elitist" family and having a nontraditional career. Tl;dr being an asshole is universal. And it's beyond annoying that people like her (among many others) give the rest of us a bad reputation. The majority of Nigerians aren't like Specs but the few like her definitely feel the need to make sure everyone knows who they are.
All of this please. Yes! As a mental health provider, madness does not care your racial/ethnic background. She is a mad woman. And leading with “Nigerian woman… Nigerian influencer” is honestly irrelevant. She is manipulative and desperate to be on somebody’s camera. All of this attention is feeding her. Next!
The chocolate British girl telling her experience? She’s STUNNING.
She’s Nigerian I think she went private cus i was following her and can’t find her anymore
The one with the beautiful melodic tone?
I partially feel that tarte uses this as a marketing tactic because they aren't really relevant. If we didn't hear about mess, would we hear about tarte? Maybe, but it would be much less than we do now.
I don't understand Chasing behind a brand for Crumbs that is not even made for you. There are plenty of black owned, make up brands, why not support them?
Colder ice.
I am a Nigerian woman in my 30s. and Specs or whatever her name is is crazy, attention seeking and has a lot of unresolved trauma in her life. looks a lot like self hate to me.
I will say that I my parents approval is very important to me. and that is mainly because they have made so much sacrifices so that I can live a better life that I just want them to be happy when then think of me. In Nigerian culture there is a lot of pressure to be successful, educated, and not disgrace your family in any way. So I would not be surprised if some of that has influenced Specs. However, her outlandish behavior would embarrass any Nigerian parent.the typical Nigerian parent would be like please shut your mouth and go read a book I beg
Oh my goodness even just your baby’s cute little baby sounds and back of their head is adorable. Congratulations again you are glowing.
I wish we would serious boycott and tarte products, especially since they’re repeat offenders of racist drama. Tarte is very insidious with this particular mess because they let Bria/Fannita take all the hits and they went pretty much unphased and they’ll do it again and again because most people don’t look at the bigger picture; black outrage is good for any multimillion dollar company’s brand. Tarte knew EXACTLY what they’re doing by asking Fannita to come at the last minute. Tarte preyed on her naïveté. Tarte got the “perfect” black person to do all their bidding while excepting the scraps (specs and blazers). Specs will always come in and make the whites look good while simultaneously spewing antiblack rhetoric. This whole situation is a messss and tarte pretty much got away with it
I don't normally boycott for various reasons. And I have used their concealer and it was wonderful. But that was my first and last purchase years ago. There are so many other brands that are equal or better.
Nah nah nah. Not Mercury in microbraids. The laugh that just escaped me is not of god 😂😂😂😂😂
On a completely different note - thank you Jouelzy for showing the baby - so unexpected and so cool !
I feel like specs might have been paid to stir drama and move the focus away from Tarte. Because what better way to escape the public’s wrath than to present another common enemy?
I don’t even know what’s going on here but I went to college in 2010 and fell head 1st into the beauty community. It shaped me so much working as a manager at Ulta or Sephora was a dream job for me and all I wanted was to be able to afford Anastasia or Mac on my broke ass college budget 😂
I bought Juvia’s Place when it was just and indie brand and still remember the 1st collab w/ black creator Missy Lynn.
My 1st big pallet purchase was actually the Tarte Amazonian Clay pallet and I remember the manager at Sephora being so nice to me 😅 they were out of stock but he made sure I was shipped one.
I used that thing down to the pan and even to contour bc back then there wasn’t contour shades readily avail for dark skinned women.
Shortly after than time the buzz hit when FENTY foundation came out and they broke the internet w/ their inclusivity.
Tarte still Didn’t get the memo and continued to make tone deaf exclusionary makeup. After graduating I actually did become a prestige sales manager at Ulta and I actively would skip them when selling … which wasn’t hard bc most of my customers were black anyway so they didn’t have anything to really offer & haven’t bought for yrs.
They obviously don’t care for anything past white skin tones and I clocked it as a kid(aka my early 20s now in my 30s)
So I’m not surprised they are in more exclusionary/racist drama.
As they say “ *a snake only sheds it’s skin to become a bigger snake* “.
Tarte is a racist mess, a lot of TikTokers and younger girls didn't know.
No one was mad that Fannita got invited last minute or went. All she had to do was get on the plane and enjoy her trip. It was that her first post leaving for the trip was an obvious dig at Bria, which was bad enough considering it was a fellow black woman she never met or had beef with, but her Pyrex issues made it worse. She was just justifiably complaining about the mistreatment of black creators, and then the first check she was offered after that she decided to sh*t on another black woman. Then she got to Miami meets Nike, and doubles down on hating a complete stranger for a brand. Finally she goes home and backs down on the "I know the truth" rhetoric, but triples down on her disdain for Bria. Someone she still has never had any contact with. She got caught up in part because of her age, but 24 is more than old enough to have some empathy and to keep the name of someone you never met and has done nothing to anyone you actually know out your mouth. Fannita laid low for a while which was smart, and if she goes back to her old content she'll be just fine. But I think the idea of Bria talking to her is ridiculous. You don't have to have enemies, but you don't need to try and make nice with everyone either.
Nike is a scammer. Her need for attention caused her to snitch on herself, and then be exposed again by her former "students". Her "influencer" days or over. Now I'm just waiting for her to pop up as a conservative, and make money off of racists in need of a token.
Tarte's days are numbered. Makeup sales are down overall. Their products are fine, but they don't have any truly popular staples, and their new releases are just ok. The Dubai trip was a joke because they flew out all these influencers who did "get ready with me's" using other brands and at times raving about them. After the jokes were posted, they quickly had the girls post videos using all Tarte products but it was too late. Now this Miami trip reminded everyone how they are not inclusive with products and racist. It won't be long before there is plenty of Tarte at your local Marshall's and TJ Maxx, and the brand fades away.
Motherhood looks good on you Jouelzy 😍😍😍😍
Lol not the Tarte ad playing while I watch this
I don’t know this history of Tart but when you showed that pasty rudey looking, stringy haired, giggly CEO woman… what person of any color diverse would want to be apart of that😑Pluckery
The fact that Specs’ latest videos have no comments minimal views
I’ve been waiting for this video
Love mama Jouelzy❤❤
Another reason to stay off of tic tok.
TikTok shows you what you tell them you want to see. I never see this drama on my feed. Only my hobbies and interests. There is a ‘not interested’ option to tap, and very quickly tiktok learns what u do and don’t want to see.
@@LisePlansandJournals yeah but yt suck so much time from me I don't need anything else 😂😂😂😂
I’ve been waiting for your view. Thank you cause you were able to say what I was feeling.
I know this has nothing to do with the video. But whatever your thinking of yourself, you’re doing a great job as a mom boo
Joulzy can you please raise your volume??? I’m listening to you in my speaker as I shower and I can’t hear a thing even with my volume all the way up. But aside from that, I’ve absolutely seen this sort of discrimination on influencer trips during the initial run of this sort of elitist promo in the 2010s 2013-15 era and remember that they were treating very young women of color this way back then while the young white influencers are busy cheesing and gallivanting in nicer rooms and better accommodations.
Bebe!!!!!!!!
Specs and Blazers comes across to me as a person who is not truthful at all. I don’t believe any of her presentations about herself or her interactions with others.
Oh Girl, I remember the make-up influencer drama!
America is messed up country when it comes to access for free health care
It’s more unfortunate that folks watch anyone on any platform as entertainment who is obviously mentally disturbed. What has the world come to…
Why do influencers need to mediate for million dollar brands? 😅 it’s not even appropriate.
Oh nooo...not Fannita! We love her. I hope this is able to get resolved and that she is fully forgiven. Without even knowing all the details...I really do think she was unaware and trusted Specs. I feel like Fannita could grow from this and apologize to Bria...I really hope. But umm...I don't get that same energy from Specs. She gives me that she thinks she's always right -- slightly narcissistic tendencies 😬.
U said everything i felt about Fannita discourse. She got played by Specs and didnt know how to mind her business cause she got no one in her corner. And folks couldnt wait to jump on the chance fo come at her. Even folks bringing up her videos with white guys like there arent numerous accounts like that
*Hope U and The Lil One doing fine.*
Great video as per usual!
Oh yes, Nike is definitely an agent of chaos inserting herself into discussions she was never part of. Her whole attitude and the way she acts in the videos just screams cockiness without anything to really back it up. You can tell she’s making shit up as she goes. Her vibe is just weird and completely off to me. Idk. But I don’t like people who attack a fellow black woman for no reason, just for attention and personal gain. Her lying, devaluing others, her arrogance, delusions of grandeur and constant mentioning of all the “important connections” she claims to have… it’s definitely giving NPD traits.
Stokely ❤❤❤❤
Great video as usual
i’m concerned that some people can convince themselves THAT much to go on rants like Nike/Specs.. & i always have bombastic side eye for overexplaining things…
Babyyyyy ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing
Im loving the big ass hair
Not Jouelzy reading the Nigerian girl who tried to be ableist about someone's mental health. Yes that girl's whole persona is a trip and I am hearing of her for the first time here. I am worried how these women are not only making the same mistakes the term "woke" came about to prevent but also even new and embarrassing ones that will follow them forever. They could educate themselves but no influencer is easier. It sounds like hell over there.
Tarte has a long history of this behavior. I saw similar videos from other content creators YEARS AGO. So sad we have to dismiss another woman’s experience. They could’ve just go on the trip without reference to Bria.
After hearing everything you have to say about this whole story, I came to the conclusion that Brie/Bria/Brielle, whatever her name is, was totally insecure going on to that trip. Probably misunderstood/misinterpreted whatever went on with Tarp.
Nike look a mess crying
What i don't understand is why is this an issue? We are in a time where there are SO MANY black owned makeup companies that cater to you. Why are you STILL fighting to be in spaces not for you????
Those people care a lot about white validation, they won’t admit it but that’s what it is.
Specs is another African women whom looks down upon African Americans and it’s weird I’ve run into that a lot in college bc I’m a black girl at a PWI and there’s mostly African people who study hear not African Americans and they make sure I feel isolated at times 😅
that lady was lying so bad wow hell finna be real hot just for her
sound is too low, cant watch
Idk. I would just be happy to be in a new country for free. Black folks should know Tarte isn't for us so why keep trying to please them. Just take the free trip and keep it moving or don't take the trip at all
❤️
omg look at the baby
That baby has the best head of hair, aww
This is sooo messy!
Is Fannita Nigerian? That would explain a lot as well.
Don't think so, just some attention seeking diluted lizzo.
So we not gonna talk about how shesaid she felt she was raped cuz she wasn't gonna get to see Sunday Race?
no because she said ranked
The BLM supporter got wrecked by the critic.
I mean it's really crazy how I see things all the time that say it's for POC only. Not for us. So why is it a problem that a makeup company caters to a particular audience. Makes no sense.
I doubt you've seen any brand saying that it's POC only especially if the country has anti discrimination laws. So you're obviously delusional. Also tarte didn't say it was for whites only. They however often otherize the POC they select to be on these trips. Your comment doesn't make any sense and doesn't match reality. Also your people are not and were not oppressed by black people. This is why CRT is important cause some of y'all are really living lives of delusion.
Because she's trying to use Blacks to sell her sh-t that's not for blacks.... I'm all for segregation.
What’s unsettling is these women gleefully accept (cheapened) trips from a makeup company who purposely makes make up they can’t even wear.
Right.. They were so ready to sell out until they realized.. like no they’re really serious about not messing with us😅 Now everyone looks goofy
Right!!!!!
Their videos are cringe af too.
This.
Exactly
This is my first time seeing the Tarte lady. She seems like a truly disingenuous person. It would have been horrible for her to have become a psychologist of any kind.
the worst person you know is either a nursing or psych major
@nami-ic5nv AND...n any human services field. Jus ask around. But ya don't wanna hav that convo...
🙏🏽
@@incognitonegress3453 so real
I think I might be in the minority here but I don't believe that Nike/Specs & Blazers was actually invited on the trip by Tarte because was the ONLY influencer who didn't post ANYTHING about Tarte. What brand would invite an influencer out to a trip and not require them to post a sponsored post? What would be the point of inviting her. Fannita posted as did Chelsea Olivia. I really think Nike flew herself there just to start drama OR Tarte sent her there to start drama, but I don't think she was there as an influencer at all simply because she did NO influencing for TARTE. Make it make sense!
You really might be on to something!
It is so incredibly obvious to me. She volunteered herself up as damage control.
Why are we still supporting this brand again? They aren’t anything special to be honest.
This! They have already made their position clear enough already 🙄
As far as I'm concerned, many Nigerian parents intentionally raised sociopaths. I have many stories. Because I'm neurological different and came from a less privileged background, I've experienced a lot of control, manipulation, ableism, poverty shaming, religious abuse- they always hide behind religion and even college. degrees to shame others. Many Nigerians only "like" you when they think you belong to the upper class of society. They learned these bad behaviors from their parents, schools, church- it's very much cultural as you stated. But please, there are others of us that are not sociopaths and are genuinely compassionate, we also often fall victim to their toxic schemes.
Glad someone who is Nigerian said it
I don’t think Nigerian parents aim to raise sociopaths - I think many have lost their way through the generations and as a result we see pathologies being passed down to children. African/Black parents before the millennial generation barely regard self-reflection (let alone therapy) as a habitual practice. There’s a lot of unlearning that needs to happen and hopefully it won’t have to be triggered by psychologically harmful behavior like the kind Nike is demonstrating.
It’s…A LOT.
@@leadinglikealady but the parents don’t change. Older Nigerians won’t even acknowledge any type of wrong doing. Yet they are always the first to tell people how to raise “godly” children.
@@JoyFay I agree that some don’t change, & I pray this cycle ends with our generation 🙏🏾
@@toriyt2714 yes we all observe it but...
I want black women to divest from many many things...going where we are tolerated instead of celebrated is one of them.
🎯🎯🎯
Nike is wild!!! I don't begrudge any social media ppl getting the bag or even letting yourself be tokenized to get the bad. But she is gleeful about jumping in front of bullets for these yt folks. Like she said she charges a "diversity fee" or something like that. Which says that she knows exactly what she's doing and she's happy to help these brands pretend to care about black ppl.
so you don't hate the game but the player? She is not bootlicking correctly enough for you? The revolution is never coming. We all want to profit from other people's oppression.
@@Boahemaa Bestie, I genuinely don't know how to respond. Cause I feel like you literally read what i say and took and away the opposite of what I meant hahaha. I'm literally saying I don't hate the player because I understand the player of forced to exist in a racist exploitative game. My problem with Nike is that she loves the game lol
I don't believe she takes any fee. She's a fraud and a scammer. She likes to pretend she's smarter and more important than she is.
I don’t follow any of this but love to watch some videos about what random things are happening on the internets
I hope I explained it enough for it to make sense!
@@jouelzy yes you did. I am bewildered though. What is really going on with young black women??!!!
This really makes BW look desperate as hell to be accepted by corpos and other influencers who are staunchly committed to not accepting them. Don't aspire to influence for companies like Tarte who don't even have products catered to you. It makes no sense.
First I Am Eloho, second Fab Socialism, and now Jouelzy! Three different perspectives, but the points still stands. Tarte sucks and the influencers, especially the Black influencers condoning their blatant racism is unacceptable. However, the colorism, and fat-phobia are unacceptable. Thanks Jouelzy and congratulations again on the baby!
Okay, back to work👨🏾💻
Def gotta check all three for the social commentary. 😂❤
@@mrod87 It’s worth it👏🏾‼️
Did you mean the black influencers cosigning their racism? I'm asking genuinely because I don't understand otherwise.
@@throwthatassinaprayercircl2662 Not necessarily, but it’s possible. I do know that their fans were instigating the racism.
@@throwthatassinaprayercircl2662 yeah condemning is def speaking against, which they are not.
This is such a wholistic view of the scandal. I remember the early Tarte scandals with the UA-cam girlies. The tendency for these platforms to repeat cycles of harm toward POC and Black creators is actually a mess.
Nike is something else, she picks and chooses. She's the same one complaining about Chris Brown not letting her into the club and wanted everyone to back her.
I KNEW she looked familiar! Ugh! And see this just makes me more mad because they’ll use her erratic behavior as proof that CB isn’t a colorist. Truly the worst!
@@ashlovestoshopum, actually he is. He's talked about it in his songs / online
@@nomanejane5766 I don’t think you read and comprehended my comment. Please reread it.
@@nomanejane5766No one is doubting Chris Brown’s long and substantiated history of colorism. It is Nike’s use of the race card when it benefits HER.
I'm enjoying the Donna Summer-ish look. And the content, of course
The tarte CEO is very unserious. You don’t care if some people get the short end of the stick, you just want a bunch of people on your trip, don’t invite them if resources won’t be equally shared
“If she the messiah, show me to the promised land sis” 😂😂😂😂😂
Perfect way to end.
I'm not here for neither Specs nor Fannita, TBH. One of the very first times I saw Fannita, she was talking down to a BW who simply wrote her a benevolent comment. Her excuse is always, "I have a personality." Such a weak, pathetic excuse for poor behavior.
It's sick that these women would conspire against Bria despite the backlash and attacks she's been receiving since Magdalena or w/e Tarte lady's name is shed her fake white tears in the "apology" video. The fact that Specs is trying to be a scamming lil martyr for white supremacy is absolutely bizarre. She is also extremely unprofessional.
Another thing is that a lot of influencer are going to continue to stand behind Tarte because they're paid to do so. When Tarte made that video claiming to be hurt I saw very popular UA-camr and TikTok personality, Meredith Duxbury or w/e her last name is in the comments acting as if the Tarte owner was being lied on and attacked. This isn't surprising...
It's gross that there was no solidarity between these black women. They're all dark black women but then the two decided to try and use the fact that they're dark against Bria who is also dark esp. after Specs claimed Bria pulled her "black card." I'm so sick of this foolishness.
That fat chick is loud and embarrassing, honey they don't like you, they're laughing at you.
When that girl said, "I know how to use racism to my advantage", just say you Aunti Ruckus omg disgusting
Nike talking about the people in her influencer training is disgusting.
It is why I never share any personal stories at work. She is giving me that messy vibe.
Love that Joelzy was advocating for #JusticeForFannita and the breakdown was 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽
Haven’t heard of Niké prior to this situation and haven’t heard about her afterwards. 💁🏽♀️
Only some people noted Tarte has been a white brand. It's not for black people and never has been.
Why were these 3 black women willing to be tokens for a problematic brand. Just leave it alone.
That’s what I’m saying💯
With so many brands for people of color, why get upset over brands who don't cater to us? If you made about this don't go to saks for luxury make up
I am and will not be claiming the actions and values of Nike as mine even though she is Nigerian. I think the desperation that we see in Nike to present herself as exceptional and “different” is something that is common among a lot of immigrants and children of immigrants especially when the culture is conservative and traditional leaning and they are born from a country that is literally falling and failing. you have nothing else to aspire to but whiteness because you begin to associate it as a safe haven and road to success.
I don’t really want to necessarily make assumptions about why Nike’s relationship with her parents is the way it is but I think my explanation regarding the conditions of Nigerian immigrants associating whiteness and capitalist ideals as an equation to success might be the reason.
Like before we even begin to get into Nigerian culture can we first talk about the impact that colonialism has had on almost succeeding in breaking it apart and how so much Africans are still healing from the damage of colonialism?
Magdalen could've put the delusional anti-black creator in a shoe box out by the dumpster and she would've went live on tiktok claiming to be in the room with Tarte movers and shakers. 😂😂😂
She gon make them points EVERY TIME. i totally agree a mess
wow Jouelzy! your read at the end connecting cultural expectations around familial reputation, childhood wounds, and Nike's behavior is so keen! yes would love discourse around this example and others.
Ladies, you have black owned cosmetic brands such as Fenty and Il Makiage. DO NOT SPEND YOUR COIN WHERE YOU ARE NOT APPRECIATED!!
