“I knew this was an issue that people had an experience with and could relate to, but I didn't really see anyone talking about it. Well, I wanted to start conversations about colorism in Filipino communities.” – @aasian, creator of #MagandangMorenx. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ It’s not just tackling a current event but unraveling generations of colonial ideologies. #MagandangMorenx, which translates to “beautiful brown skin," is a movement committed to challenge traditional beauty standards in mainstream Filipino media. We’re here to join @aasian in the conversation to bring awareness to colorism and actively dismantle it. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ We believe what you wear is what you represent.
