      Hey! I definitely am grateful to be living in a wonderful city - I think about it every day :) And thanks for the compliments. But still more work needs to be done to improve diversity and tackle harmful stereotypes in society - which is why I decided to make this video.
      Thanks for watching.

      Sorry :( Didn't mean to make you feel empty!! But the conversation about representation definitely needs to be had, to highlight the truth of the matter. I like that hashtag by the way!

    Well as an Arab Palestinian What irritates me the most is that when I travel abroad, Sometimes am the last person to leave the airport, extra scrutiny and ridiculous questions..it doesn’t happen in all airports but it sometimes does happen.
    I feel like the airport crew think that i come here to stay forever and never leave the country 😂😂😂
    In one country they literally opened my wallet to check how much money i have 😂😂😂

    • @AnpuLondon
      @AnpuLondon  5 років тому +1

      Oh my gosh, that's ridiculous. Sorry you get that treatment!
      Only thing you can do is stay calm and continue to give off warm vibes.

      Conquer British English [Anpu] yes you are right that is the exact kind of attitude I deliberately embrace.. i only once got inflame when one guy asked me when did you plan to visit the country..I sharply answered him..i don’t recall what i had for lunch yesterday.. however what gets me calm is that I understand they don’t do it personally...therefore I don’t take it personally

      A sad point of reality, but you've boiled down to this brilliantly. I'm a brown guy in SEA as well. Thanks for this amazing footage. I've learned heaps of good stuff from here to improve my English. You're my idol and have always given me different versions of Englishes. I've been learning jubilant, frustrated, sad, wrathful and humorous versions of English along the way. Honestly, I have no intention to obtain British English but wish to understand a rich variety of the dominant language spoken worldwide. I really appreciate your ingenuity and efforts you put into your vids. Keep up the good work. G'nite. ❤️

      Hiya. I'm great thanks. How are you?
      Thanks for the video suggestion! Maybe I should do an interview style video with londoners?!

    After watching your video I went through the online shopping websites in India only to find out 90% of the models casted where of a fairer skin tone so when yu talk about under representation this problem prevails everywhere :(

    • @AnpuLondon
      @AnpuLondon  5 років тому +1

      Oh very good point! hopefully more is done to combat this!

      Very true. People buy whitening creams that can potentially cause skin cancer too get fairer skin. It’s so stupid and shallow

    I wouldn't want this to sound disrespectful though you'll probably have a better luck searching Boliwood models. Also I find ASOS to be very good at propositional representation of diversity. I was extremely surprised but very positive when I first saw a female model with stretch marks, and this was on ASOS. I don't think this is a boring video at all, it really shows how shocking the clothing industry in fact is. As you said there's obviously a somewhat improvement but still in many cases having white and black models, companies think they've hit the mark of representing diversity. Things like body hair and acne are still a taboo in the fashion industry.

    • @AnpuLondon
      @AnpuLondon  5 років тому +1

      This is a really fascinating comment, thank you. Glad it highlights the shocking reality. And yes, you're right - there's an issue around body hair and acne which should be addressed!

      Thank you Anpu for your reply. I must admit that I got so drawn by the subject of this video and wanted to quickly share my thoughts. I really appreciate your Thursday content.. actually your channel content overall, for which I thank you. 😀

    These days Indian models have turned white they no longer look like brown Indians but their hair is still black or maybe even light brown 😂 just wondering if u knew who is SRK aka Shahrukh Khan? Or Tiger shroff? PS. When I mean white I mean Asian white not British white
