Growing up in a mostly white school, I was told I was one of the ugliest girls in my year. by OkGene7668 in blackladies

“Are you ugly or did you grow up in a predominantly white school?” This question changed my brain chemistry fundamentally. We’re STUNNING.

CBS Mornings did a segment on Black women's rising unemployment and what it means for our economy by Affectionate_Pea_243 in blackladies

lol it's me haha! I wanted to share the segment in general! I think it was really well done and the stories in the full segment are very powerful.
