Homegirl speaks the truth! Love this girl's fierceness! Hope everything works out for her at fashion week. 1% latina@ 2008 Fashion Week? That is crazy! And who wants a stick figure walking in their clothes? Apparantly designers do for so strange, unexplainable reason... Their better off using mannequins as your models *sigh* Renee don't ever become a stick figure! God has blessed you with a gorgeous body and he don't make mistakes. "I need a black girl, but she has to be a white girl dipped in chocolate"....Disgraceful!!!
 
^ I absolutely agree with everything you've said. I don't want to get too deep in this so I'd just say I wish her to finally get that success she deserves.
 
The Color of Beauty Featuring Renee Thompson

The Colour of Beauty is a short documentary about racial discrimination in the fashion industry. Director Elizabeth St. Philip follows a young and fiercely talented Black model, Renee Thompson, as she navigates the fashion world as a visible minority.

This film asks: Why isn’t the multi-cultural society that we live in reflected in our magazines, on billboards and on the runways of fashion shows? And who are the parties involved in this industry’s lack of diversity? Does the answer lie somewhere in the back rooms of fashion magazines or in the offices of casting directors of fashion shows? Is it something that is discussed at advertising agencies, or between designers and modelling agencies? Whatever the answer, the fact is that models of colour work less, and their chances of success are very low.
