It wasn't until I was older that I could fully appreciate seeing black mothers doing thing like making sure they bought their daughters black barbies. I didn't realize how powerful subliminal messages about beauty, inferiority, image, and everything in between could so easily be ingrained in the mild of a child. Now I know better... and that's the reason why I am feel so good about writing this post.
