She looks good.

Kind of OT, but I remember a few people criticizing her for wearing Black hairstyles, not realizing she is and identifies as part-Black. Like... the gag.

I just checked and I take what I said back.

It's important that we don't minimize how "white-passing" mix race or black people feel. :)

She looks like Marisa Tomei and Linda Cardellini had a baby and I'm here for it.  :lolly:

Totally. Colorism and the privilege of lighter folk is definitely a hot and important discussion, and I remember Halsey being very open and cognizant of her own privilege when discussing this, which I highly commend.

It's interesting to hear her perspective regarding it (being mixed myself, but not showing it, nor identifying as it). Hearing her talk about navigating the privilege of looking incredibly Caucasian, while having her Black cultural heritage constantly ignored, was very poignant.

3 points in and ready for more
